Alyssa is amazing! She has watched our 14 year old Yorkie many times and has stayed at our home for as many as 10-12 consecutive days. We completely trust her in our home and most importantly we completely trust her with our dog. She is very sweet, responsible and truly loves our dog like her own. She does what we ask her to and always leaves our home like we left it. I know our dog is happy while in her care because when we get home, he's always happy! While we are away, she often sends us text messages and pictures of how he's doing. She is very responsible and our dog took a liking to her immediately. I have recommended her to many of my friends and they have used her as well. I highly recommend Alyssa for your dog and house sitting needs.
