Pet care experience
Hi there! I am a full-time dog trainer and only accept Rover clients on a case-by-case basis. I have 10 years of experience training dogs and a private training business. I am a gentle, force-free trainer (CPDT-KA, ADT-IAABC). I am currently booking for the holidays for select services. If you want the peace-of-mind of an experienced dog professional, then you have found what you are looking for!
Reviews
Alyssa is so good with Cookie. Cookie loves her. Alyssa is flexible and has helped me out with last minute bookings. Thank you, Alyssa.
I cannot say enough good about Alyssa and her children taking care of Cookie. I feel I am leaving Cookie with family. Yes, her ROVER family. I sleep 💤 well when I go out of town as I know Cookie is in good hands. Alyssa is a dog trainer and completely understands Cookie. Cookie is so LOVED by Alyssa and her sweet children. Cookie KNOWS where she is going when we drive to Alyssa's home. She (dogs) know the way. Do NOT hesitate to hire Alyssa to train your pup or help your adult dog. I did not know Alyssa when I adopted Cookie but I knew a trainer who did wonders for her. Trainers are so KNOWLEDGEABLE. I know with Alyssa's credentials and the love she has in her heart she could be so helpful to your pup and you.❤
Alyssa was amazing. She’s supe knowledgeable abut all aspects of dogs. She was also flexible, which really helped me out.
Sammy, the cat, had a great experience with Alyssa and her family. I received updates and pictures. Sammy had a few tummy troubles at first but Alyssa handled it and helped him make the transition easier. She even accomdated and extended stay and delivery of additional food. Alyssa is vwry knowledgsbke about dogs and cats. All in all a wonderful experience. I would recommend her services and will request her in the future. Thank you for a great experience. Jane Connor and Sammy
About Alyssa K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
For in-home board and trains I prioritize the time with your dog(s) and intersperse training with fun, enrichment, and lots of sniffing throughout the day. For walks, your fearful or reactive dog will benefit from professional leash handling skills and extra safety measures.
Home
Information Alyssa K. would like to know about your pet
Potty training status, separation anxiety, chewing habits, training goals and expectations, travel pickup/drop off plans, and an emergency contact. Please ensure you also have your vet information on file in case of emergencies.
A typical day
Dogs in my home play with lots of enrichment toys, go on decompression walks, get fenced off-leash time for fetch or training and on weekends we often go for hikes! Unfortunately I cannot take dogs into my home currently, but I will treat yours as my own when I am with them.
