Pet owner and dog daycare employee!

Pet care experience

I have owned and taken care of pets ever since I was 6! I had a German shepherd at that age, so I am not shy around large dogs. I also have owned and currently own a cat, so cats are available for me too! I work at a doggy daycare and deal with all manners of dogs of all ages every day in large groups, so I can handle a lot. I have taken a course on reading dog behaviors and I am going to be dog CPR certified soon! I know how to handle nervous, flighty, and overexcited dogs. My dream career is to work with animals because I absolutely adore them.

About Alyssa M.

Skills

16 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Special needs dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I currently am not able to bring any other animals into my house as I have a kitten who I have not placed around dogs or other cats yet. I also live in an apartment, which would not be suitable for larger dogs. However, I am willing to take any dog to any dog park if that is what is wanted!

Information Alyssa M. would like to know about your pet

I would enjoy knowing the temperament and how trained they are. Are they rough players? Distant? Cuddly? Do they need some time to warm up to new people? Are they food motivated? I am fine with any breeds and have become friends with even the most skittish of dogs as it is part of my previous job.

A typical day

As a doggy daycare employee, I know many ways to keep your dog engaged and going! From follow the leader, to chalk play, to bubbles, I have an arsenal of fun activities. In smaller towns I’ll make sure our walks are in more open, fun smelling places, while for bigger towns we may hit up a dog part while staying away from busy roads!
