Pet care experience

Flexible, Friendly Pet Sitter

What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with animals. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and began pet sitting at just 13 years old. This early start gave me not only hands-on knowledge but also a deep understanding of animal behavior, needs, and care. My genuine love for animals, combined with years of experience, allows me to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care that pet owners can trust.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I provide regular meals, walks, playtime, and affection, while following any specific instructions or needs. I make sure they feel secure and loved, whether they’re in a familiar space or adjusting to mine. Cleanliness, consistency, and communication are always part of my care approach.

Alyssa was a great sitter for our day trip! She sent clear communication and pictures of our dog throughout the day! Would book with her again!

Would do 0 stars considering care was not completed. After communicating pet care expectations with her that she agreed to, she left me and my dog without care day of, after already arriving and when I was driving three hours away. I had to turn around immediately after reaching my destination, cancel all plans and lose $400 in trip expenses. Did not try to call or solve any issues with me before bailing and made rude judgements/assumptions about my home. Does not have basic knowledge on pet cleaners and how they may smell after use. Should not accept bookings with young and anxious animals if she does not have the compassion for potty messes. Would never trust my animal in her care.

Alyssa was the best! She is very detail oriented, communicative, and so kind! During our time away, she always sent lots of pictures and asked questions if needed. She is great at following instructions and my dogs loved here. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a good sitter!

Alyssa has been incredible! We are so lucky to have found her after recently moving to Portland. She has helped us with Theodore on short and long stays. He loves her! He becomes very photogenic and love see the photos while we’re away.

Schedule

I’m currently employed full time but work remotely 4 days a week and spend 1 day a week in the office, which means I have fairly open availability. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine right now, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention fully to the animals I care for. With little to no scheduling conflicts, I can be flexible and dependable, ensuring pets receive consistent and attentive care whenever needed.

It’s important to know a pet’s routine, medical history, dietary needs, behavior around other animals and people, triggers or fears, and any training commands they respond to. I also like to know what comforts them, their favorite activities, and anything else that helps them feel safe and happy while you're away.
