I have a full-time job and love hanging out with all the doggos in my free time. A couple of my workdays are fairly long, so I am more available later in the week.

Safety, trust & environment

Pups (6months+) and dogs are allowed everywhere in my house except my personal bed. It is a modest home, with a fenced back yard (dog castle included). My dog, Buttercup, loves other dogs and is eager to play and be friends when they are. She has had interactions with both younger pups as well as much older doggos (up to 11 years old) and all interactions have gone well. While she’s on the medium-large end (70-75lbs) some of her best doggo friends range from significantly smaller (7-12 lbs) to much larger (100+lbs). She interacts well with different sizes.

Information Alyssa F. would like to know about your pet

My dog has epilepsy, and takes meds twice daily because of that. She also has fairly sensitive skin, so regular baths then applying an anti-itch lotion is important.

A typical day

I’m willing to do a wide range of things that your pet might enjoy! From walking, to getting down and playing indoors, to sun bathing (my dog loves this), to just petting them while resting. I like taking my dog to new places to walk so she has lots of things to smell and interact with, I’m happy to do so with yours as well.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of countless roommates dogs, before getting my own a couple years ago. Before getting my own I did lots of research on training so she could have a happy, healthy, and safe life. I am committed to a dog’s safety and happiness. I am big on positive reinforcement which is how I’ve trained Buttercup. I’ve worked with multiple dogs on leash training, off leash training (minimal), potty training, and other general commands (sit, stay, come, heel, etc.).

Alyssa was great! She has a lovely yard, her dog is a sweetheart, and Faith got daily walks with her. We got lots of updates and Faith seemed very happy and content when we picked her up! We’re grateful Alyssa treated Faith like her own! 🥰

Alyssa is an expert with dogs. Not only was she able to comfortably keep my dog in her home, but she also helped reinforce some training while she stayed with her. She was very friendly, communicative, and clearly cares a lot about the dogs she watches. My dog especially enjoyed playing with her dog, Buttercup! I would definitely trust Alyssa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog boarder.
