I am currently a full-time graduate student and will be able to dedicate as much time as you'd like to your pets. I'm available on an as-needed basis and will make your pets my first priority. I am also flexible for last-minute changes and bookings, but the more notice, the better! I'm happy to plan ahead since my schedule tends to fill up in advance with loyal clients :)

Safety, trust & environment

The environment will be yours to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible. I promise to leave your home as neat and tidy as I found it, ensuring your pet maintains the lifestyle they are used to.

Information Alyssa W. would like to know about your pet

You know your pet better than anyone, so if there's anything I should be aware of regarding their behaviors or needs, I will be sure to keep that in mind.

A typical day

I will strive to provide your animals with age-appropriate care and attention, ensuring they receive the activities they are accustomed to, whether it's a long walk, an hour of play, or simply extra scratches at the end of the day. Most of my experience has been with senior dogs, young puppies, and cats with insulin needs, so I am familiar with a variety of unique care requirements.

Responsive & Reliable Caretaker

Pet care experience

Every family has unique needs, and I’m happy to schedule a phone call consultation to create a care plan that fits your budget! I’ve been caring for cats and dogs of all ages since childhood—I come from a pet-loving family. For over five years, I’ve provided professional pet sitting in my area through Rover. Before that, I supported friends and family with their pet care needs. These years of experience have allowed me to work with a wide variety of breeds, ages, energy levels, and routines.

Alyssa was fabulous! Our 4-legged babies were pampered all week and didn’t seem to miss us a bit! We have already booked our next trip with Alyssa and greatly appreciate the stress she took off of our pouches while we were able to enjoy a vacation! Highly recommend!

Alyssa is a lovely young woman who is very organized. I felt very comfortable leaving our aging dogs in her care.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
