Pet care experience

Alyssa is here for your pets!

I am an animal shelter volunteer and have worked as a pet caregiver for well over a decade. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets in and around the North Valley area of Albuquerque, where I am based. I've lived in New Mexico for 6+ years, previously did pet sitting in Rio Rancho, and I ran a successful pet-sitting business through Dog Vacay/Rover in Chicago and Atlanta. I have a dog and child of my own and am experienced and comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. At this time, I offer dog walks, pet sitting in your home, and house sitting. I am a self-employed freelancer with a flexible schedule to meet your pet's needs. Please contact me to discuss your pets and how I can assist you!

Safety, trust & environment

At this time, I am not offering the service of watching pets in my own home due to having my own dog. However, I am happy to stop by to visit or stay in your home to take care of your pets. Safety and high-quality care are my top priorities. I am highly detail-oriented and will follow your pet care instructions and preferences to a T.

Alyssa was on time, thorough in her report and took great care of my pups. Would happily have her do future sittings for me!

We had such a great experience with Alyssa for our first time using dog vacay! She kept my girl for a week and was sure to provide updates throughout the visit. I'd definitely recommend Alyssa for future boarding needs!

Alyssa took on the challenge of looking after our recently adopted rescue pup Sasha for several days while we were out of town. She and her husband directed Sasha's high energy towards lots of fun activities such as hiking, running and going to the dog park. Alyssa kept up great communication with us during the vacay and we appreciated the daily updates and photos which let us see that Sasha was being well cared for.

I am an all-inclusive pet-sitter who does not discriminate against any breeds or types of pets. Every pet is a unique and beautiful snowflake who deserves our love and affection. Please let me know about any health concerns or behavioral issues you have with your pet in advance of my visit.
