Pet care experience

Musician and Lifelong Animal Lover

I've been caring for friends' and relatives' pets for years while they're away on vacation, often staying in their homes to provide consistent care and companionship. I've also provided boarding for longer stays, including pets who have stayed with me for two to three weeks at a time. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting outside for long walks and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with them has always brought me a lot of joy. As a freelance musician, my schedule gives me the flexibility to devote quality time to the pets I care for. While I'm not currently able to commit to having a pet of my own full-time, being able to care for other people's dogs and cats between gigs truly feels like a dream. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away.

I can’t recommend my niece Alyssa highly enough as a pet sitter. She stayed in our home for a week while we were on vacation and took excellent care of all of our animals, including both our dogs and our cat. We have a senior dog who requires a calm, patient approach, slow walks, and consistent care with feeding and attention. Alyssa handled all of his needs beautifully, always making sure he was comfortable, well-fed, and gently exercised. I felt completely reassured knowing he was in such responsible and caring hands. At the same time, we also have a young, energetic dog who needs a lot of stimulation, playtime, and attention. Alyssa did an amazing job balancing both dogs at once, keeping the younger one active, engaged, and happy, while still making sure the senior dog received the quiet, steady care he needed. She managed their very different energy levels with ease and kindness. In addition, we have a shy cat in the home who can be quite reserved around new people. To my surprise and delight, Alyssa was gentle and patient enough that the cat began to come out more during her stay, even coming over for occasional cuddles. She also made sure to feed her regularly and respect her space when needed, which helped our cat feel safe and comfortable. We came home to happy pets, a well-kept house, and complete peace of mind. Alyssa is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring with animals of all temperaments. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and capable pet sitter.

Schedule

I’m currently a freelancer with a flexible schedule. Some weeks I can be quite busy and unavailable to pet sit, but some weeks I am very free and have plenty of time to pet sit and spend time walking or playing animals. It is the perfect way for me to make a little extra cash in between my music gigs, since I am a big animal lover.
