Highlights
Pet care experience
Belly Up Rubs Guaranteed
I’ve cared for everything from pee smelling puppies to powdered mouthed seniors and loved every moment of it. I’ve babysat puppies for my sister and extended family, so I understand that they need frequent bathroom breaks, lots of patience, and constant supervision. When it comes to senior dogs, I’ve looked after large breeds with autoimmune disease and hip dysplasia. I’m experienced in administering medication to dogs of all ages and know the tricks to make pill time easy. I have walked small dogs to big dogs and also reactive dogs, I have no issue taking dogs out for frequent potty breaks or long walks. I’ve cleaned ears and teeth, bathed, dried, and brushed dogs of all coat types from shedding huskies to curly coated poodles. And yes I have absolutely no issue cleaning up poop or pee. If they gotta go, they gotta go!

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. I make sure to follow any specific instructions carefully whether it’s feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication, or playtime preferences. I’m very respectful of the home, always keeping things clean and organized, and making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, loving space with plenty of attention, walks, and stimulation tailored to their needs. I’m mindful of any anxiety they may feel in a new place and take the time to help them settle in gently. I keep a close eye on their behavior, make sure they’re eating and drinking regularly, and maintain a clean, cozy environment litter boxes, bedding, toys, and food bowls are always fresh and tidy. No matter the location, my top priority is always making your pet feel happy, secure, and loved while you're away.
Ratings and reviews
Alyssa was a very detailed and thoughtful sitter. We left our two large dogs in her care for a few days, and she was highly communicative and attentive to our dogs needs. Would rebook whenever we need a sitter again!
Alyssa was amazing with Willow! She was constantly sending updates of him which made us feel less worries while we were gone, and she was constantly playing and taking Willow out to make sure he had the best time too! Will definitely be rebooking :)
Alyssa P. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Alyssa is the best!! She is so sweet and attentive with Bruce, very responsive, and I feel so comfortable leaving Bruce in her hands.
Alyssa is the absolute best. Frankie loves staying with her. Highly recommend!
Alyssa was great with my older cat! I could tell she was very well cared for from the many pictures and updates she sent. Alyssa also went out of her way to sweep up litter and take out the trash without me asking. We’d definitely love to have her stay over again!

Schedule
I’m currently a junior at NYU studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. This semester, I’ve intentionally lightened my course load to make more time for pet care something I genuinely enjoy. I’m available Mondays and Wednesdays after 11:00 AM, Fridays after 4:00 PM, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. During home stays, I’m great at multitasking while still being fully attentive to your furbaby’s needs. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.
