Experienced & Pro Animal Lover! 🐈

Pet care experience

Hello! :) My name is Alyssa. I’ve cared for animals of all kind since I was 9 years old. I grew up with a Daschund and Rottweiler in my childhood home. From Great Danes to Chihuahuas, cats, chickens, lizards, fish, etc; neighbors, friends, family, and clients have relied on me for years to care for their lovely pets 😄 The services I provide are: ⚫ Dog Walking (30 or 60 Minutes) ⚫ Drop in visits (30 or 60 Minutes) ⚫ Variety of different Housesitting options to meet your pets unique needs ‼️ I do occasionally accommodate last minute requests, however, I encourage all clients to have a meet and greet before any service request to guarantee I am the best fit to accommodate your lovely pet :) I have experience with diabetic pets (administering insulin, medication), pets with special needs, pets that need to take medication. Please let me know these details in your initial request so I am prepared to accommodate :) 👇 Listed below are details of the services I offer. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! 
_________________________________________ 🐕‍🦺 Dog Walking 🦮 • Dog walking is available for 30 minutes ($25) or 60 minutes ($33) •This includes taking your dog on a walk around your neighborhood! •I will clean out and refresh their water bowl after our walk, and leave them with a treat :)
 ____________________________________________ 🐕😸 Drop- In Visits: • Drop in visits are best for cats, dogs that don’t do walks and have an outdoor space, bunnies, reptiles, birds, etc. • I will stop by the home for 30 minutes ($25) or an hour ($33). That time is used for letting the pet outside for a potty break, scooping litter boxes, feeding, playing with toys, refreshing water bowls, being good company! 
 ___________________________________________ 🏡 House Sitting: Housesitting options can vary on you and your pets individual needs. ⚫ $75 for overnight ONLY pet sitting (overnight, 12 hour time period. Example, 7pm to 7am. Times are flexible!) ⚫ $125 for all day and overnight sitting (Occasionally leaving for errands, appointments, gym, etc. Pets aren’t left alone for more than 4 hours) ⚫ $240 for constant care pet sitting (Never leaving the home and staying with your pup 24/7, typically for puppies and pets with separation anxiety) • For housesitting requests, I will stay in your home overnight to keep your pets company! This is perfect for maintaining their normal routine. Your pets are able to stay in their already familiar and comfortable environment, on vacations or trips they cannot join on. Housesitting includes a combination of the following services based on you and your pets needs. (Potty breaks, walks around your neighborhood, feedings, refreshing water bowls, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication administration, basic home maintenance: bringing in mail, packages, newspaper, accommodating trash pick up, watering plants, etc)

Couldn’t be more pleased with how things went while Alyssa watched my pup Milo for a few days. Not only did all signs point to a pup who was sufficiently loved up on while I was gone, but she also took such great and thoughtful care of my home. Highly recommend!

Alyssa was super sweet and you can instantly see how much she cares for animals. She was super communicative and professional. She sent pics as asked. Will definitely be using her again.

Thank you so much for taking care of our fur baby while we were on vacation! Being gone for two weeks is a long time, so it was really great to know our baby had a consistent visitor looking after him. Everything was in perfect order when we got back and we could Tormund had been well taken care of !

I BELIEVE IN POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT! 😄 This involves redirecting attention from “bad” behavior, not punishing for it. I live a vegan lifestyle and LOVE animals with my whole heart 🐱🐶🐰🐭🐹🦊🐷🐮💖
