Pet care experience
Vet Tech • someone always Home
Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and an active veterinary technician. Caring for animals is both my career and my passion, so your pet will be in experienced and loving hands. I have two dogs of my own. Toby is my sweet 9-year-old basset mix who is a tripod. He’s the king of belly rubs and spends most of his day happily napping. Luna is my 4-year-old doodle who has the opposite personality—she loves to play, run around, and dig in the backyard. Both dogs are very friendly and used to being around other animals. I do have children in my house - two boys. They will not be assisting with care but they do love animals and will be happy to give snuggles and pets! Because of my veterinary background, I’m comfortable caring for pets with medical needs. I can administer medications, including eye drops, insulin injections, fluids, and can check blood glucose levels when needed. I’m happy to help with pets who need a little extra care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here—just like part of the family. A big perk of staying with me is while I can still an active veterinary technician at Blue Pearl pet hospital, my husband is always home if I am not. Your pet will never be left alone more than an hour for a quick errand. I only work two days shifts a week, so I’m around quite often.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Louie loved staying with Alyssa and her family. She provided updates and videos. I highly recommend
Alyssa took good care of Leo and was very communicative throughout his stay. I appreciated the photos she sent with each update as well! We will use her again.
Alyssa is a wonderful sitter! She is friendly, a great communicator and very knowledgeable about dogs. I know my pups are well taken care of when they are with her.
Alyssa kept me informed with photos and comments during Rocket's stay. Rocket came home a happy camper.
Alyssa had a tough job handling my two puppies and she did a wonderful job!! She sent lots of pictures and they sure looked as though they were loved and having fun!! Will definitely use Alyssa again!
Alyssa was great; she came on short notice and was willing to help after my long-term dog sitter moved out of state on shortnotice. She is even a vet tech; I would trust her with Vinny anytime.

Schedule
Because of our work schedules, your pet will rarely be left alone. I only work four days a week, and my husband works from home, so there is almost always someone at the house to let the dogs out, feed them, and check on them throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention, supervision, and frequent potty breaks. I also know how important updates are when you’re away from your pet, so I make sure to send regular photos and updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel comfortable while they’re staying with us.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live on a quiet street with a fully fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. It’s a calm, pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and enjoy time outside. 🐾
