Pet care experience

Will treat your dog like family!

I have owned, raised, and trained two dogs of my own. I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their personalities. My goldendoodle comes with me when I housesit! I’ve helped many people in my life with their dog sitting needs! I work full time but am available nights and weekends. I love coming home and going on walks and spending time in the back yard with the dogs. We have a fenced in yard with two dogs. My roommate is home most of the time and loves to give the dogs attention! They get plenty of time outdoors but plenty of time for rest and relaxation. They get spoiled with treats, pets, and cuddles! Dogs are allowed on the furniture in our home!

Alyssa is the best! She always takes such great care of Milo and makes sure he has everything he needs. She always leaves my house better than how I left it and is super helpful!
