Availability
As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :)

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

Information Alyssa H. would like to know about your pet
I want to provide the safest and most personalized care possible, so I like to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, and preferences ahead of time. Please share their feeding schedule, potty routine, energy level, leash behavior, and any training cues or commands they know. It’s also important to know about any medical needs, medications, allergies, or anxiety triggers. I welcome details about what makes your dog happiest—favorite toys, sleeping habits, and comfort items, so I can create a calm, familiar experience. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while giving you complete peace of mind.
A typical day
A typical day with me is structured around your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy. We’ll start with a walk or potty break, followed by feeding according to your schedule. Throughout the day, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and enrichment—whether that’s walks, playing with toys, or simply relaxing together so they feel at ease. I’m very attentive to their energy level and personality, whether they love activity or prefer a calm environment. I also send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to make their time with me feel as close to home as possible.

Pet care experience
I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own!
Reviews
Alyssa was so with great with our pup! She provided updates, sent lots of photos and it was obvious she genuinely cared for him. He even came home with a cute report card. I’d highly recommend Alyssa!
Alyssa and Skyler were great with Augie--I recommend highly :)
Alyssa and Skyler were wonderful with Cubbie! He even ate while he stayed overnight, which is huge news and demonstrates how comfortable he was. They also gave us the cutest little report card to recap his adventure.
Alyssa took wonderful care of Jorge! She did so well with him and helped administer some meds. 10/10!!
