Pet care experience

Pets are family to me

I know how scary it is to entrust others with your pets, especially if you are like me and have an anxious/reactive pet. I volunteer with a local shelter, and they've taught me so much when it comes to minimizing stress in animals as much as possible. I will treat your pets like I treat my own, with a focus on comfort, reducing stress, and respecting boundaries in what your pet might find to be a new or scary situation.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard, dog crates, and even a dedicated "pet room" in my home. I also like to use the vertical space for my cats and give them lots of shelving and perches for them to climb and view the windows.

Alyssa is amazing!! Took wonderful care of my 2 cats, during every visit she made sure all their needs were met while also taking time to play and give them some pets. She was organized, responsive, and always positive to speak to. We appreciate all your help and the adorable pictures we got while away!

Alyssa was wonderful! She was very responsive, communicative, and caring throughout the entire process. She took the time to write down every detail during our meet and greet and sent plenty of updates and photos after every visit. Even though my request was fairly last minute, she was able to accommodate me and made everything so easy. I felt completely comfortable leaving my cat in her care and would definitely book with her again!

Alyssa was super communicative and thorough. Her skill with cats was evident from the meet and greet and I'm so grateful for that peace of mind she gave me. Even better, my tortie trusted her enough to be talkative and ask for pets from her. Thank you so much!

This was my third time having Alyssa do drop ins for my cat while I’ve been out of town and I can’t say enough great things! I’m so appreciative to have a sitter I can competely trust and know she’ll give my cat all the love, food, pets, and care while I’m away. I recommend Alyssa without hesitation and will definitely book again!!

Alyssa took care of our skittish cat who needed medications as well as our friendly outgoing cat while we were away. She was communicative, reliable, and professional. She even rinsed the cat dishes when they were done! It was so nice to know the cats (even the complicated one with injections) were in good hands. Alyssa was thorough and trustworthy and we would definitely book her again as well as recommend her to friends!

I always do meet and greets so we can go over potential care needs. I really like to be thorough and prepared for any scenario.
