Our house was in great shape when we got home. We would definitely rebook with Alyssa in the future and she has our full recommendation!”


About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

I am a social introvert, who enjoys spending time with animals, volunteering, babysitting, exploring, reading, gardening, photography and using my creative side as much as possible.

About: I’ve enjoyed watching some friends dogs espcially smaller ones. They are so sweet. I fed them, took them outside, played with them, and provided companionship while the owners were away. I am currently working 11-8 so could be there with the animals in the morning and evening. The animals would be well taken care of. I don’t have a place for animals at my home, but while watching my friends animals I made sure to leave quickly while they were distracted. I also made sure to have them put in their crate before leaving.

Joel B.
“I do not trust my fur babies with anyone but Joel. Joel met my doggo with me, before taking the "job". He is kind and caring of my dog's boundaries. She is a Chihuahua and has big Chihuahua personality, walking her with other dogs can be difficult, but Joel gently took care of the walk situation. I have very detailed instructions when I leave. Joel follows the instructions exactly as noted, potty times, food times, play times, bedtimes and just cuddle times if doggo so inclined. I check in regularly as all fur baby parents would. He always answers and gives me updates as to how things are going. He is even willing to face time me so I can see my fur baby. When I get home, my baby is happy, no stress, happy to see me, and obviously well cared for. I recommend Joel as a 5-star fur babysitter.”
