Pet Lover (Time Flexible)

I have experience volunteering at the Lincoln Zoo working with animals and prior pet sitting and dog walking. I used to work at the Capital Humane Society in Lincoln so I spent a lot of time with animals then. I provided training, walks, cleaned up after them and helped in adoptions. I love all animals big and small! I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, chinchillas, birds, camels, giraffes and shrimp to name a few and am always looking to meet new animals. I can provide grooming, walks, playtime, overnight or day time pet sitting in your home, waste removal, feeding, training and would be willing to discuss anything else you might need. I am also willing to do other tasks around your home you might need help with (cleaning with supplies you provide, getting the mail, watering plants, etc.) I am pretty flexible with my hours. I live in Lincoln. I am willing to travel and I have reliable transportation with my car. I hope you and your pets have a nice day!

Safety, trust & environment

I understand the body language of animals and use it to know when a pet is comfortable for approach and attention. I love playing with toys with my cats Athena and Jasper and taking my dog Tucker on walks.

House Sitting • Jun 18, 2026

Alyssa was wonderful! Came out to our farm to check on and maintain a perfect living environment for our little kittens and their momma. Even made sure their enclosure was safe for them as they started to learn to try to get out. She went above and beyond and was easy to communicate with!

It is important for me to know when they are fed, how much and how often. I like doing meet and greets to get a feel for the house. (Where they go outside, where everything is that I will need, etc,) I also want to know if they have any special needs or medicine they are taking. If there is anything I need to know about behavior-wise that is always helpful. If they have any favorite treats or toys that is great info as well!
