Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Pet Parent & Caregiver
Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, turtles, and fish, and I currently have two dogs of my own: a 7-year-old Standard Poodle and a 3-year-old mutt. I previously cared for a senior rescue dog, so I’m experienced with pets who need extra patience, consistency, and care. I’ve trained my own dogs and am comfortable with everything from long walks and dog park trips to detailed meal prep, medications, and specific sleep routines. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, whether that means helping a shy cat slowly feel comfortable or keeping an energetic dog happy and engaged. I’m also a strong communicator and believe pet parents should feel confident and informed while they’re away. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and any details that help you feel connected to your pet and reassured that they’re receiving great care. I love getting to know each pet as an individual and providing the same thoughtful, reliable care I’d want for my own animals.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in your home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I understand that staying home can be especially important for pets who are anxious, older, have medical needs, or simply feel safest in their own space. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, personality, and preferences, including feeding routines, medications, exercise needs, play styles, and any special instructions. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean and consistent, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, cared for, and loved while keeping their routine as close to normal as possible.
Ratings and reviews
I can't recommend her enough. She is one of the kindest, most trustworthy people I know, and it shows in how she cares for animals. She is wonderful with dogs very patient, attentive, and genuinely loving. My puppy seems to relax the moment they're with her. She treats them like they're her own, keeps you updated, and gives you total peace of mind while you're away. If you want someone reliable and warm who truly cares about your pet's well being, you're in good hands.
Alyssa is an amazing pet sitter who is my first choice to watch my dogs. On multiple occasions, Alyssa watched our family's three dogs overnight for a few days, and each time we came home, the dogs were happy, healthy, and sad to leave her! As she has her own dogs, she knows exactly what it takes to care for multiple dogs. She followed dietary and exercise needs and provided updates on the dogs.
We have rebooked Alyssa multiple times because finding someone who can manage four standard poodles and a Yorkie mix all at once is no easy task, but she handles them flawlessly every single time. She is incredibly trustworthy with our keys and home access, giving us total peace of mind. Alyssa stays overnight at our house, keeping everyone's complex medication schedules perfectly organized and on time. She ensures everyone gets their daily walks, beautifully balances the high energy of our poodles with the special care our Yorkie mix requires, and sends daily photos and updates along the way. She even goes above and beyond by getting our mail and watering our plants. We always come home to five happy, healthy dogs and a perfectly respected home. We highly recommend Alyssa for any multi-pet family! 5/5 stars!"

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility throughout the workweek for check-ins, feeding, playtime, walks, and potty breaks. I’m used to building pet care into my schedule and maintaining consistent routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. I also have a reliable vehicle, making it easy to provide drop-ins, walks, or transportation when needed. Whether your pet needs a quick midday visit, extra playtime, medication support, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m able to provide dependable and attentive care.
