About Alyssa L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'll give your pet my undivided attention while I'm caring for them and will take lots of pictures! I always strive to make your pet feel safe and loved and will be patient with them as we get to know each other.
Information Alyssa L. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to know of any special needs or requirements, medications, etc. as well as any personality quirks! It's also helpful to know how they feel around strangers and their process for warming up to people.
A typical day
I love taking our time on walks so that your dog can stop and sniff everything! Depending on your pet’s personality, I'll stick to the same routine every day for comfort, or switch it up. With cats, I try to divide our time between snuggles and play, depending on how your kitty is feeling!

Pet care experience
I have a degree in Animal Science with courses on Animal Behavior, so I am always attentive to how your pet is feeling! I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I am able to handle shy & scared pets and am comfortable walking anxious and reactive pups. I love cats and have two of my own, and am always happy to meet new kitties! I'm experienced in administering pills and asthmatic inhaler to cats. My experience includes having two of my own large dogs and dog sitting for friends and family, as well as many years of volunteering at animal shelters and veterinary hospitals.

Reviews
Alyssa did a great job of taking care of my cat while I was out of town!
Alyssa took great care of our kitten and older adult cat, once again. She was attentive, communicative, and paid close attention to detail throughout. We were put at ease knowing they’re in such great hands when we’re away!
Alyssa was wonderful with my two cats. She sent cheerful updates and good photographs daily. Both pets seemed content and unstressed when I returned home.
Very responsive and friendly!
