Information Alyssa R. would like to know about your pet

Some good things to know is your pets leash manners, behavioral habits, health, diet, and how they handle being home alone if that is necessary for a short period of time.

A typical day

I love keeping dogs moving! Depending on your dog’s energy level, I enjoy playing vigorous games of fetch in the yard, going on long neighborhood walks, or practicing basic command reinforcements with healthy treats. If they have a favorite tug-toy or ball, you can bet it will get plenty of use. If your pet is more of a 'couch potato, I’m happy to provide all the belly rubs and ear scratches they can handle.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Alyssa, and I genuinely love caring for animals. I know pets are family, and I treat every dog or cat in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I’d want for my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll tailor my care to their unique personality and routine. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and bedtime routines. I also understand how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout each visit or stay. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members!

Alyssa is a great sitter and very accommodating. I booked with her and needed to cancel after no longer needing her. She could not offer a refund at that time so I decided to send my dog with her anyway. My dog stayed one night and she then offered a full refund for other unforeseen reasons that weren't her fault, and she didnt have to do that. She offered to brush my dog daily with no extra cost. She usually charges for grooming and I didnt know that nor did I have that listed in my dogs care and she offered to do it anyway. Although my dog didnt stay with her very long, I could tell she has a heart for animals and I can assure you, your fur baby will be in good hands with Alyssa.
