Care for your furry or scaly friend

Pet care experience

Hello there! I’m Alyssa. I am a school based occupational therapist. I love people, I love dogs, and I love reptiles! I have always had animals growing up- 3 dogs, gerbils, hamsters, a bearded dragon, a corn snake, a leopard gecko, cats, fish, etc. I have experience with giving oral medication and with dogs who have anxiety. I have experience with administering injections to my leopard gecko, so I am comfortable with administering those as instructed. I have dog/house sat overnight in the past for my boss's 2 boxer dogs and have house/dog sat for many families in the past (some with several animals at once). My past clients have mentioned that they appreciate my communication skills and my attention to detail when following their care instructions. I send daily updates and pictures of your pets when you are away! I can provide you with references, if you are interested. Thank you. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!

Alyssa was seriously the best sitter we’ve ever had! Our dog, Lea, loved her! We came back to a very happy dog. House and everything was just as we left it. Will definitely be using her again in the future.

Alyssa is a caring, hardworking and driven individual. Her actions of being at graduate school at Concordia University show that. Alyssa herself has three dogs at home and takes great care of them. Not only the essentials like water and food, but she takes the time to individually bond with each one and shares a special relationship with them. Alyssa is the one to trust your best friend to while away.
