What Pet Parents Are Saying:

  • Close-up of a black dog with brown eyes and a colorful collar, on a wooden deck.

    “Alyssa was great she watched our dog with separation anxiety who needs medication along with our cat who also needs special meds. Our home was super clean and well cared for when we returned. Our pets love her!”

  • Two dogs lying on separate dog beds in a living room. One dog has a red ball in its mouth, and the other is looking away. There is a large TV mounted on the wall and a dark wooden cabinet. The floor is wood, and there is a piece of artwork hanging on the wall.

    “We, and maybe more importantly our older dogs :) love it when Alyssa comes to watch our pets when we're away. She's very attentive to them and keeps us posted with photos or with any questions.”

  • A tan and white dog lying on a wooden floor, chewing on a large stick, next to a black metal crate.

    “Alyssa has watched my puppy since we got him and is the best! She has been trustworthy and helpful. I always return to a clean home and everything taken care of (plants, mail, packages, etc.)”

  • A domestic short-haired cat with a tabby and white coat walking on a tiled floor, with sunlight shining on its face and a background of a wooden table with potted plants and a window.

    “Alyssa is an amazing sitter! Alyssa is kind, sensitive, trustworthy and responsible. Alyssa was great with her communication, answering my questions prior to the sit and willing to FaceTime and arrive before our trip.”

Hi! I’m Alyssa, the owner and sitter behind Sit and Wander Co. I provide personalized, in-home care so your pets can stay comfortable in their own space, surrounded by the routines and things they know and love.

As an owner-operated business, when you book with me, you know exactly who will be caring for your pets and staying in your home. I don’t rotate sitters or juggle multiple overnight households. I take the time to understand each pet’s routines, personality, and individual needs so they receive consistent, thoughtful care from someone who genuinely gets to know them.

One dedicated sitter. Their home. Their routine. Everything cared for.
