Your pets new reliable best friend!

Pet care experience

I first started taking care of animals when I was 12 years old. It started with my neighbors dog, cat and two birds. From there my love for taking care of animals and providing excellent service blossomed into me working for a dog rescue group where I would foster and help rehabilitate abused dogs in my home through an adoption agency so they could eventually go and be apart of a new, permanent home. I’ve pet sat for friends, family members and have even received referrals through an online platform i am apart of on Facebook. I’ve watched animals ranging from dogs, cats, Guinea pigs and reptiles! I am a very reliable individual who understand the love we have for our pets and I only want to go above and beyond to achieve that and make the experience as easy as possible for you and your pets.

We were very grateful that Alyssa was available on short notice. The dogs took to her right away. We look forward to trying her again with more advanced planning.

Alyssa was great with our dog during a long weekend stay! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and update, and our home was in perfect shape when we returned. We’ll definitely work with her again.

I care for your pets in your home and will care for them however your heart desires. I’ve crated, baby gated, and have animals free roam. I understand everyone has a preference and some dogs have separation anxiety so I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make the transition as easy as possible for your fit babies

Information Alyssa W. would like to know about your pet

Just a good run down if they are good with other animals or not, prey drive. If they’re sensitive to the heat and or cold. Any other things the owner may think I should know

A typical day

I love going on walks, going to the dog park and playing with toys and doing things to stimulate your pet to get out energy
