Highlights
Pet care experience
AirBnB SuperHost turned Pet Momma
I live in downtown Richmond, have an aussiedoodle, work remotely and manage 2 AirBnB properties with over 870 reviews (4.93 rating), speaking to my professionalism, reliability, cleanliness, and communication skills. For the past 10 years I have been pet/house sitting for friends and referrals as my flexible schedule has made space for these opportunities and I am finally making it official by starting a Rover Profile. I love all pets and will treat them with the utmost respect, love, care and consistency, as I will also treat your home. With my AirBnB experience I also know it can be unsettling having strangers enter your space. I will be respectful, maintain your privacy, communicate any concerns that may arise, always double check all doors are locked, and never let your toilet stay running for days. All while doting on your 4 (or 3 or 2)-legged family member.

Alyssa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I offer a wide array of services depending on what you and your pet desire. I can let them outside, take them on walks, give them snuggles and love, play time, and I will always clean up after them.
Ratings and reviews
Alyssa was an exceptional sitter for us!! She watched our 6 yr old Pitt and our 2 feisty cats. She had excellent communication, asked questions we didn’t think about and also provided us frequent updates as we requested. It was very obvious she loved on our pets, because they acted like they didn’t even miss us when we got back home (bitter sweet HA!). Our home was also cleaner than we left it, which was a blessing to come home to. My wife won’t stop raving about how spotless it was. Maybe we should take more vacations. No concerns! Highly recommend!
Alyssa is amazing! She followed all the instructions I gave her and took excellent care of my dog. She played fetch with him for hours and took great care and attention in following his food and water schedule. As a dog owner herself, I'd highly recommend Alyssa for your dog watching needs.
Alyssa was absolutely wonderful with my Australian Shepherds! I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about them. They came home happy, tired, and well taken care of. I really appreciate everything Alyssa did, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dogs. I’ll definitely be using her again!
Alyssa has become my go to when I need my Terrier baby girl watched when I go out of town. She’s dependable, great communication, and very easy to work with, highly recommend her.
Alyssa has watched my cat, Poncho, for me while I’ve been away, and the biggest thing I can say is that I genuinely don’t worry about him when I know she’s taking care of him. Poncho loves her, which says a lot on its own lol. She’s really attentive and responsible, and if there’s ever something I forgot to explain before leaving, she’ll actually ask instead of just guessing. She also sends me random pictures of Poncho while I’m gone, which always makes my day and lets me know he’s happy and doing well. I trust her completely with him and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will actually care about their pet, not just check a box and leave.
