Dependable Walks & Drop-Ins 🐶🐱

Hi! I’m Alyssa, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs a good walk or a senior pet who needs a little extra care, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. You can count on me to show up on time, follow your pet’s routine closely, and give them the same care and attention I would give my own. I have taken care of my families pets since I was just a child. I have worked as a dog handler at a day care and I have worked as a veterinary technician for several years taking care of primarily dogs and cats of all ages from new borns to seniors. My duties included administering medication, feeding, behavioral training, and assisting in surgery. I have spent my free time volunteering at shot clinics as well as walking dogs at the humane society. I currently have two dogs, an American bull dog named Simba who I rescued and a German Shepherd named Luka. We go for walks daily around the lake. Whether you need daily walks, check-ins, or last-minute help, I’m here for you. Let’s set up a meet & greet—I’d love to meet you and your pet! 🐶

Safety, trust & environment

I believe in taking care of others animals as I do my own. Making sure they are comfortable and their needs are met is my top priority. Building trust and providing a safe environment for them to feel right at home. During the summer months, if the temperatures are above 80°and/or the humidity is high, I will shorten walks to 15 minutes or less due to safety reasons. This will heavily depend on the condition of each dog. If the temperature is 90 or above, I will not accept dog walks as that is dangerous for your pets safety and well-being. If you’d like me to still drop in for a visit. I am more than willing to stop by to let them outside for a potty break.

Dog Walking • Apr 27, 2026

This is Gail’s husband Rich. I have trained Charley to Woe, which means to slow down, Heal, to sit and stay when I take him off the leash when no other dogs or animals are around. I have also taught him to Dump, and usually when he obeys I tell him he is a good boy. Just a few thoughta. 🙂

Reliable, trustworthy, punctual, handles Charley well, communicates, well. Charley loves his walks and really likes Alyssa! She handles him well and she’s very conscientious on his likes and dislikes while on his walks.
