Dogs are my life!!!!!
Pet care experience
I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to become a sitter! Working with dogs is a life-long dream, and I can’t believe it’s coming true. I've been a dog lover my entire life; every dog I see has the potential to become a new best friend! Their companionship and devotion is incredible. No matter how you’re feeling, they’re there for you, just like any family member. As a dog owner myself, I worry whenever I’m away about whether my dogs are getting the love and care that I give them. I want you to know your baby is being taken care of and loved throughout my stay! I have two fur babies of my own: a 1-year-old Aussie named Sawyer and a 4-year-old mixed breed named Samson. They’re my life! I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages, including young puppies, since I was 7. I even worked in a vet clinic for a little while, but I realized that personalized care is better for me than the often-heartbreaking work of a vet. I’m a deeply empathetic person; I care with my whole heart, and give 100%. There’s nothing I’m more passionate about than taking care of dogs! I spend most of my free time with my dogs. We love hanging out by the lake, playing fetch with sticks and balls. My Aussie, Sawyer, loves being in the car, so I often bring her along on errands. Local businesses with dog-friendly patios are another favorite. I also enjoy swimming, on my own or with pups! I live right on the lake, with lots of room to run around and play. We also frequent dog parks, and I’m happy to take your pet to their favorite places whenever possible. My dogs come with me almost everywhere. When I was younger, we had all kinds of pets: dogs, hamsters, bunnies, ducks, snakes, birds --really, any animal you can think of! My grandparents also had a farm with horses, goats, cows and chickens. That’s how I developed a love for animals! I’m focused on providing care for dogs, but if you have other pets as well, we may be able to work something out. I can’t wait to meet more fur friends!
Reviews
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Alaina has seen my pup now 3 times and every time has been so great! I sometimes work late long days while my fur baby is home alone and Alaina definitely puts my mind and heart at ease knowing my pup is being taken care of! Getting updated with photos while she’s visiting my pup is always a plus and great to get. Also, she moved her schedule around last minute to be able to make a visit for my pup! Will always be booking Alaina for my Madden :)
Alaina did a great job walking and checking in on our dog! She sends great pics to keep us posted on her visits! Thanks a bunch!
Alaina is wonderful! She is very attentive, takes photos and engages with your doggie! You can tell she really loves dogs and wants to ensure they are loved on and treated well during her visits.
Would definitely recommend! She was great and really went above and beyond with taking care of our 3 pups. It’s great to have a fellow dog lover check on the pups and I really felt at ease with all the pictures I got!

Information Alaina R. would like to know about your pet
We’ll be the best of friends! When we first meet, we’ll stick to neutral ground. If the dog is shy, I’ll let them warm up to me on their own time, however long it takes. I’ll work with any and all dogs; I love them all! I’ll want to know the special needs of my canine friends, their favorite treats, if they like playing fetch, if I can run with them, and anything else that would help me provide the best possible care. Does the dog have any restrictions? What do they love to do, and where are their favorite places to explore? I'll do everything I can to make your baby comfortable and happy, and send regular updates and pictures for your peace of mind.
A typical day
We’ll have fun, eventful days together! After morning cuddles, we’ll get breakfast and go for a walk. Then we can play games, go to a park, or jog if the dog is up for it. We’ll get a long walk later in the afternoon, with plenty of potty breaks, and evening cuddles as the day winds down. I’ll be sure to provide treats, playtime, and lots of love!
