Pet care experience
I was previously in a Veterinary Assisting program for four years and was taught how to cut nails, clean ears, etc. Near the end of training I took the Vet Assisting exam and passed but decided to work with animals purely for enjoyment. I also volunteered with Adopt A Stray for almost 2 years and ended up adopting two cats, Davey and Azul. I have loads of cat experience as well, including caring for newborn kittens. I am also comfortable around reptiles and have an albino hognose named Pistachio. I’m very flexible and can be open for most days of the week and weekend. I have my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and minor in Art History from the University of Florida.
Reviews
Can’t speak highly enough! Alyssa went above and beyond to help take care of our cat.
Alyssa was amazing! She kept me updated, took care of the dogs, the house, brought in my mail when asked, and was just super pleasant to deal with. This was my first time using Rover and she made it simple. I will be using her as long as she is available.
Very patient with the pupper
Great and reliable, a life saver being available on short notice! My dogs loved her!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Although I do not currently board animals in my home, I assure that I could provide a safe and comfortable environment when sitting for them at your home.
Information Alyssa M. would like to know about your pet
I think it would be important to know the pet’s temperament ahead of time in order to coordinate play. It would also be good to have an idea about how often that they are taken out for potty breaks and whether they have specific dietary needs/supplements.
A typical day
I love to play fetch with dogs and tug-of-war as well! Depending on what the owner’s preferences are I can take them on walks around the neighborhood or a nature trail that I often go to for light cardio. I am also comfortable playing with cats when needed!
