Pet care experience

My family and I have been in the Minooka area for two years now. we are always looking forward to meeting some new faces! I have been dog sitting/walking for years, but I'd love to expand my help to the surrounding areas. I am available for house visits multiple times a day, walks while you work cat and small animal care and more! In my home, I own two reptiles: Thor and Noodle. Recently, we adopted two female kittens from Ruby Whiskers Animal Rescue. They are the sweetest, friendliest sisters: Latte and Mocha. I am able to keep them in their own space if requested. This is the perfect opportunity if you are nervous about your babies being around other animals. I have no problem only booking one family at a time, if that’s what you prefer. My home will be a safe haven for them and peace of mind for you. Animals have been a passion of mine since I can remember! Growing up on a farm may have had something to do with that. I was bringing home kittens to raise since I can remember. Even bottle fed and raised a whole litter of baby bunnies and a baby squirrel at one point! Throughout my life, I’ve owned many breeds and species small and large. I have experience with everything from fish to hamsters, birds and a love for the scaly ones too! I had plans of becoming a Veterinarian after high school so I've always involved myself with animals as much as I could. I learned so much working side by side with the vet techs during my internship at Shirkey Veterinarian Clinic! In most recent years, I have fostered quite a few dogs and puppies, through Grahamville Rescue. As well as, fostered kittens through RWAR in Lemont. Being able to provide these animals with a safe place and then seeing them go to their forever home was such a rewarding experience! Message me and let's see if I would be a great fit for you and your family!

She is absolutely wonderful with our Lucky. It makes it easier to go away knowing he is in such good hands.

Happy I chose Alyssa to care for my dog. He was truly cared for. Excellent communication and upbeat personality, Teddy was so well cared for I doubt he even realized I wasn’t home 😂. I would 1000% choose Alyssa again when I need a dog sitter.

Please provide me with any health/allergy information, feeding instructions and most importantly, their personality! Are they friendly with children or other dogs? Or do they prefer one on one? I'm happy to accommodate in any way I can!

A typical day

I’m always finding ways to get outside and stay active, your pets will never be bored! There are plenty of paved walking paths throughout the area as well as dog parks within driving distance. We’ll play, take walks and maybe let them try out a treat puzzle for fun!
