Safety, trust & environment

When you’re away, your baby is my baby. I will treat them the same way I treat my furry children. I will send you updates and pictures for peace of mind!

Information Alyssa L. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. Are dogs allowed on the couch? Are they allowed people food? Where do they sleep? Do you have a fenced in yard? How often do they need a potty break? What is their daily routine? The more details you provide, the better I can care for your babies!

A typical day

Walks, playing ball or tug-of-war, trips to the dog park, pet supply store, or anywhere else requested! Snuggles on the couch are always nice, too.

Pet care experience

*Note: I am unable to provide 24-hour, constant care. I do overnights and weekends but I work M-F, 8 am to 4:30 pm in Carlisle. Most clients have me stay over night and have someone let their pups out during the day. I have worked with dogs for 20+ years, mostly dog sitting and volunteering. In my free time I volunteer with a non-profit called Keller's Cause, which was created to promote responsible breeding practices and advocate for special needs dogs. I am pet CPR and first aid certified. I am also a Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist. Special needs and older dogs hold a place in my heart. I have a deaf Australian shepherd (who knows sign language!) and a diabetic cat who requires daily insulin shots. I am also a crazy cat lady... I’ve loved cats since I was a little kid. My love for animals spills over into all aspects of my life; I am vegetarian and was vegan for many years. Having someone come into your home and watch your precious babies is not a responsibility to take lightly. I promise to respect your home, privacy, and most importantly, your fur babies. Sending updates to you for peace of mind a priority of mine! I’d love to meet you and your critter crew!

Alyssa was great! She sent me pictures and my dogs warmed up to her immediately. I will definitely use her again.

Alyssa is incredible. Our blind dog is fearful of new people. She sat on our floor and hand fed her to gain her trust. I am completely blown away by her compassion and dedication. I will absolutely be a repeat client :) thank you Alyssa!

Alyssa is amazing! We’ve used her for housesitting and our little guy loves her. So responsive and we know she loves him.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
