I don’t work during the summer so have plenty of free time and will be able to give your dog lots of love and attention! During the weekdays, I work a teachers schedule outside of my home. If your dog isn’t able to be left alone for more than a few hours on the weekdays, we might not be a good fit.

Conscientious and playful dog lover

Pet care experience

Hi! My name’s Alyssa and I am a special education teacher and lover of all dogs! In March of 2019 I lost my beloved Goldendoodle of 13 years old. I would love to welcome another dog into my home or get my dog fix in any chance I can get! I used to love taking my dog on runs with me- I like living an active lifestyle and would be able to be active with your dog as well. Or- happy to have a more laid back dog to snuggle with and go on shorter walks! I have experience with puppies, taking care of multiple dogs at once, taking care of older dogs and administering medication. I am looking forward to meeting your pup!

Alyssa took great care of my dog Moose for his overnight stay! He came home happy and exhausted and Alyssa was very communicative during his stay! I will definitely ask Alyssa to help with Moose again in the future!

Alyssa was great. She was very attentive to Rigby and took him on lots of fun walks and adventures - and of course sent lots of pictures and videos! He’s definitely excited for his next stay.

Alyssa was easy to communicate with and took good care of our dogs. We will definitely call her again the next time the dogs need care.
