Pet care experience

Active & Trustworthy Dog Sitter

I have a strong background caring for dogs and am very comfortable with a variety of sizes, breeds, and personalities. I work from my home so your dog will get plenty of attention. I’m active and love going outside for walks, but I’m also great at adjusting to each dog’s energy level—whether they’re playful or prefer a more laid-back routine. I also have a small Maltipoo at home who is very friendly and enjoys playing with other dogs, which can be great for social pups. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and make it a priority to follow your dog’s routine so they feel as comfortable as possible. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your dog is doing.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 20, 2026

Another great day for Fluffy! Alyssa was accommodating with an early drop off time and couldn’t be more grateful for her flexibility with schedule!

Alyssa and Winnie are wonderful! She is such a kind person and you can tell she really loves animals. She sends pics and updates, which puts your mind at ease. 😊

I’ve seen firsthand how great Alyssa is with dogs. She’s attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoys spending time with them. I would trust her with any pet of mine. She has a small dog of her own who gets along well with every dog she meets. Alyssa is very aware of each dog’s needs, energy levels, and personalities, and adjusts her care accordingly. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and easy to trust with your pet, she’s a fantastic choice.

I’ve known Alyssa for over 5 years and she’s incredibly caring and loves dogs. She’s patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys caring for them. Her home is a safe, comfortable space, especially for small dogs. Any pup in her care will be truly treated like family!

Leaving Benji with Alyssa was one of the easiest decisions I’ve made. She’s incredibly kind, communicative, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog Winnie is such a sweetheart and gets along so well with other dogs, which made Benji’s stay feel more like a fun visit than anything else. I could tell Benji felt comfortable and happy, which says everything. If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your dog, I highly recommend Alyssa!

Alyssa cared for our previous dog, Buddy, on several occasions, and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Buddy was not naturally friendly with people, but he warmed up to Alyssa surprisingly quickly—something that speaks volumes about her calm, patient nature. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home, Buddy was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—never stressed, which meant everything to us. We have since moved and now have another dog, Molly, and our trust in Alyssa hasn’t changed. In fact, we’re willing to drive 3½ hours across the state just so she can care for Molly while we’re away. That level of trust says it all. Knowing Alyssa is with our dog allows us to truly relax and enjoy our time away, confident that our pet is in the very best hands.

Schedule

I currently work remote so am home most of the day. I like to walk my dog every 2-4 hours. I’m pretty active so am willing to either run or walk with your dog.
