We were so lucky to find Allegra.  We had no intention on getting a puppy on a Sunday morning this May, but couldn’t resist him when we saw him.  The poor guy had to endure a whole day in the crate on that Monday until I got home.  Allegra was able to make arrangements to come over that evening so that we could meet her and she could meet the dog.  It was obvious that she was an experienced dog lover and that she would take good care of Ryder.  She hasn’t missed a day since we hired her and we have had no issues.  As a matter of fact I haven’t spoken with her since the day we met.  We bought a journal that she fills out everyday with what she is doing with Ryder and how he behaved.  She has been excellent with working with us on his commands and he is further along now because of it.  Occasionally she sends us pictures from her phone, or her digital camera using her Kodak sharing account.  I highly recommend her for this job.

I can definitely vouch for Allegra.  she is a wonderful pet sitter /dog walker.  I have used her several times and have always been pleased with all of her services.  Allegra is very knowledgable about dogs and treats my dogs as she does her own.  I do not worry  when I know Allegra is taking care of my dogs as I trust her completely.  My dogs love her!!!  Amy L- 8/2008
It makes us feel so good to know that our dogs enjoy their time with you and that you take such loving care of them.  We truly appreciate you and the wonderful service you provide.  We will continue to use DogzFirst anytime our dogs need care. JJ & Jen B-8/2008  (Shiloh & Tobi's owners)

Allegra and DogzFirst is my #1 choice for pet-sitting.  Our dog was able to stay in the comfort of our home, during the Holiday Season, without us worrying about drop off and pick up times at a boarding facility.
It was great to know that our dog could sleep in his own bed, eat his own food and enjoy being at "home".
Allegra would "text" us pictures of Enzo, while at our home for his walks, playtime, and feedings.
Enzo even received a Christmas present from Allegra and enjoys his treats and new play toys!
I would highly recommend DogzFirst!

I have known Allegra for almost 4 years and I would recommend her to anyone at anytime. She is most definitley trustworthy and I have no hestiations about giving her our house key and I've even given her the code to the security system of our house. I have recommended her to all my friends and they have used her and have been happy as well.

Allegra is very honest. If she says she is going to spend an hour with your dog, she will be there the entire hour...if not more. And she plays with them and talks with them.

I've never met anyone more loving towards dogs. This is truly her passion and her love. She has 3 beautiful dogs of her own that are very loved. I don't run or play with my dog half as much as she runs and plays with her own dogs. She takes them to the lake, to the park and on walks and runs. And she treats her clients pets the same way. She will take as good care of your puppy as you would. Probably better if you are like me and very busy.

Not only is she loving, but she's very good with them. I have seen her turn around a lot of ill behaved dogs and turn them into better dogs. She just knows how to handle them and doesn't let them get wild or out of control.

So I would 100% recommend Allegra and I believe that you will be hiring someone who will love your dog as much as you!
