Cares for pups to seniors in home!

Pet care experience

As a previous full time nanny and part time dog sitter, I’m a huge dog lover who loves fulfilling the desire to care for and love by providing special detail to dog care at your home overnight and on weekends. I just relocated to Chicago from Pittsburgh, PA for a new job and am already deeply missing my regular dog sitting families (a sweet special needs elderly Shepard mix, Hobie; a two year old blue Boston Terrier, Kenny; Ace, an entergetic Multi-Poo puppy; and Jack the 5yr old Pomeranian). I grew up with family dogs and have always loved being surrounded by a dog’s companionship, love, energy, and happiness. I work full time (M-F/9-5) in Evanston and live in Lakeview and am hoping to establish semi regular overnight and weekend stays in the area at your home with your dog. I have 8+ years experience dog and house sitting and provide excellent loving care for your dog, whether they’re a puppy or senior dog, big or small! I have 6 years of experience dog sitting a sweet special needs and elderly dog and can help with detailed special care requirements and giving medications. I have some training experience with puppies, both from my own family’s dog experience and from assisting with supporting training of dog sitting families. I provide special attention to detail and preferences and strive to make sure your dog feels just as loved and comfortable as they would with you, their person, at home. I maintain a high level of communication and provide regular updates with photos and/or videos of your dog throughout the duration of my stay. I would love to chat with you to learn more about your dog and how I would be a good fit to provide them care during your travels.

Alyssa did an absolutely great job watching Harper!!! She kept us updated on how Harper was doing and sent lots of pictures. Harper had lots of fun with Alyssa and got tons of exercise-- she was a happy happy pup when we returned! We would definitely have Alyssa stay with Harper again and are super grateful that she could stay with Harper this last weekend. Thank you Alyssa!

Alyssa dog sat for my shepherd retriever mix for 5 years and during that time both Hobie ( Dog) and I came to adore her! Alyssa is loving, responsible, smart and trustworthy. My dog is a rescue and is a sensitive guy. Alyssa was always so sweet with him. My dog grew old throughout Alyssa's time with us and she handled all of his " issues" with great care and attention. I always felt I could count on Alyssa to take care of my beloved dog and to leave our house neat and clean. I mean it sincerely when I say that you cannot find a better dog sitter/ dog walker than Alyssa... she is quite simply an awesome person!!! We miss her!!

Information Alyssa F. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs—all breeds and sizes—but I’d like to know what kind of pup you have. I’d like to know what special needs your dog might have and any tips on how I might be able to help your dog feel most comfortable (what’s their favorite toy—is it that purple bear or the knotted rope? How many treats is ok to give them?)

A typical day

I try my best to stick to the dog’s schedule to help them feel the most at home in their regular routine whether that means walking to their favorite pee spot, going to the park, or having a doggy play date with their friend!
