Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pets first
I accommodate your pet considering their physical needs as well as your expectation. How far can they walk? Ailment’s? Health conditions? I will factor all these into each walk. I have personal experience with dogs of all ages and sizes as well as cats of all ages and am comfortable understanding their behaviors and body language. I grew up with dogs and my most recent English black lab of 14 years young, who passed in September 2019 due to her weakened hips and other health conditions. I understand the patience and care needed for senior pets. I currently have a tuxedo cat/ Maine coon who fills my days with love. I take great pride in attention and respect to animals of all ages and sizes. Endless attention and positive affirmations will be given to your lovely pets while you are away, texts and pictures will gladly be given, as a photographer I can’t help myself!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment

Ratings and reviews
Bingo loves having Alyssa come for a visit!!
We love using Alyssa for drop in visits and our pup, Bingo, loves her too!
I’m very disappointed that Alyssa did not notify me during her visit that she was having trouble getting a leash on one of my small dogs as apparently he was growling and she didn’t feel safe. I had previously told her that this may happen, however she didn’t reach out to me at all during the visit. I would have redirected her use a slip lead to safely get a leash on. I was upstate and had to leave my work meeting early to come home and let the dogs out. By the time I got home, it had been more than 8 hrs since my pup had gone outside. That’s way too long and could have been avoided if she had simply communicated with me.
Alyssa has been taking care of our now 85lbs BIG BOY since Jan 2024 (when Bishop, our pitbull, was only 3 months old) Throughout the year, she has proven to be reliable, punctual, respectful, and understanding. Most importantly, Bishop loves seeing her and going on walks with her! Not only does she takes Bishop out for walks, but she take notice of things that could be of concern and address it for his safety, such as walking him on grass during the hot summer. She goes above and beyond and we couldn’t ask for a better walker! We appreciate all that she do!
Bingo was very happy when we got home and that's all we can ask for. We really appreciated her communication. Can't wait to use Alyssa again! Highly recommend.
I never have to worry about my cat when I am out of town! Alyssa is dependable and so great with her check-ins.
