Alyssa was really nice. She accepted my last minute request. She took time to play with my dogs and shower them too. Will book her again next time!

Alyssa was amazing! She did drop-in visits for a week while we were on vacation for out dog, cat, bird, and even fed our koi fish as well! She was thorough, asked a question any time she was unsure of something, and gave us daily updates. It is always a little scary leaving your pets in the care of someone else, but Alyssa took some of that fear away and allowed us to have an amazing vacation because it was clear that they were being well taken care of! We will definitely be booking with Alyssa again!

Pets

A typical day

As a pet sitter, I would love to engage in various fun activities with the pets in my care. Here are some ideas: # Fun Activities with Pets *For Dogs:* 1. *Long walks*: Explore new neighborhoods or trails, enjoying quality time together. 2. *Play fetch*: Get those tails wagging with a game of catch. 3. *Obstacle courses*: Set up a mini agility course for mental and physical stimulation. 4. *Swimming*: If possible, take a dip in a nearby lake or pool for a refreshing exercise. 5. *Sniffing games*: Hide treats or toys, encouraging their sense of smell and problem-solving skills. *For Cats:* 1. *Laser play*: Engage in a fun game of "red dot" tag. 2. *Feather teasing*: Use a feather toy to encourage pouncing and play. 3. *Catnip sessions*: Indulge in some catnip-infused fun, promoting relaxation and joy. 4. *Tunnels and tents*: Set up a cozy play area with tunnels and tents for exploration. 5. *Scratching post play*: Encourage stretching and scratching on a sturdy post. *For Small Animals (e.g., rabbits, guinea pigs):* 1. *Cage play*: Spend time with them in their cage, playing with toys and interacting. 2. *Outdoor time*: If possible, take them for supervised outdoor adventures in a secure enclosure. 3. *Tunneling and hiding*: Provide cardboard boxes or tunnels for them to explore and hide. 4. *Sensory play*: Offer a variety of textures, smells, and tastes to stimulate their senses. 5. *Food puzzle toys*: Challenge them with interactive toys that dispense treats.

As a pet sitter, it's crucial to gather essential information about the pets in your care beforehand. Here are some vital details to discuss with the pet owner: # Pre-Pet Sitting Briefing 1. *Medical History*: Know about any allergies, medical conditions, or special needs. 2. *Dietary Requirements*: Understand their feeding schedule, food preferences, and any dietary restrictions. 3. *Behavioral Quirks*: Be aware of any anxiety triggers, fears, or aggression issues. 4. *Medication Administration*: If applicable, learn how to administer medication, including dosage and frequency. 5. *Contact Information*: Get the owner's contact details, as well as their veterinarian's information. 6. *Emergency Procedures*: Establish a plan for handling emergencies, such as power outages or natural disasters. 7. *Pet Habits*: Understand their daily routines, including exercise, playtime, and sleep patterns. 8. *Household Rules*: Familiarize yourself with household rules, such as areas off-limits to pets or specific cleaning protocols. 9. *Veterinary Care*: Know the location of nearby veterinary clinics and the owner's preferred veterinarian. 10. *Communication Preferences*: Discuss how often the owner wants updates and what communication method they prefer. By gathering this essential information, you'll be well-prepared to provide top-notch care for the pets and ensure a smooth, stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners.
