I do have a very busy schedule when it comes to school and my part time job. However with a week or two notice I am able to not work at my part time job and focus solely on pet care and school. I would be able to walk your dog or go let them out during my multiple hour breaks in between classes. I would ensure that my schedule aligns with the needs of the pet before taking on the care.

Safety, trust & environment

I would not be able to do in home care in my own home, but I plan to spend the night at the pets house every night. I also plan to do school work and more from the house I will be sitting at. This way I can ensure your pet isnt left alone for long periods of time. I will play and provide every need to your pet. I also plan on following your instructions to a T. I do this because as pet owner myself I understand that you know your pet best and want to ensure their saftey and happiness when going through a stressful time.

Information Alyssa R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any allergies that I need to be aware of or certain medical conditions. If I am administering medication I would love to have a sit down conversation with owner on how to administer it and what are some frequent reactions or scenarios that might play out during the administration of the medication to ensure my safety and your pets.

A typical day

I plan to have lots of play time and go on multiple walks throughout the day. If the owner is okay I would love to take dogs to the park to let them socialize and get some playtime with their furry friends.

Loving and Dependable Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

All throughout my life my family has always had pets. I’ve had dogs, rabbits, cats, etc. Growing up with so many different animals I learned how to care for them, love and appreciate all the joy and fun they bring, and most importantly respect their boundaries. I have always loved animals and wanted every pet without a home to find their forever home. In middle school and in high school I found a nonprofit group where I grew up called lost cat and dog foundation. This foundation holds a special place in my heart because they have amazing beliefs and activism to helping pets find their forever home. I volunteered there most weekends for almost 6 years helping pets gets adopted. When I was little I always walked dogs around my neighborhood and pet sat frequently to make money. I have sat for many types of pets during my childhood, I sat for many dogs, cats, and even handicapped animals. In high school I walked every day after school and frequently pet sitted for one of my favorite boys in the whole world Remy. I became very close with his family and still keep in contact with them 6 years later. With all that being said I want you to know that I am here for your pets and your family.

Alyssa showed so much love to my baby and every time she comes around my dog James knows her name. James does not like many, but Alyssa is definitely one of the few. She is responsible, attentive to all of his needs, caring, and patient. She has done so much for myself and my baby. She will be an amazing pet sitter and friend to your fur baby.

Truth in advertising, we’re Alyssa’s parents, but please don’t let that detract from our recommendation. Alyssa is a loving, caring & smart pet sitter! She has well over a decade of pet sitting experience (cats, dogs, fish, etc.) as well as taking care of her own pets, to include a rabbit. As an animal lover since birth, she volunteered at Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation throughout her school years. You’d be hard pressed to find a more loving and responsible person to trust with your pets!
