Experienced & WFH DMV Sitter

Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Alaina and I adore dogs and would love to care of your pups while you are away. I offer boarding in my home as well as housesitting. For housesitting please note I have a dog as well and can usually only book stays when she is able to come along with me. Reagan (my dog) is extremely sweet and used to having other dogs I sit for around. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds, ages, levels of energy, and special needs, meds and diets and have been caring for dogs for over two decades. I work from home and am able to spend as much time with your dog as you would like and provide frequent potty breaks. I send daily photo updates and truly enjoy caring for other people's pets while they are away - I know the value a friendly, reliable, and communicative sitter brings is essential in feeling at ease on any trip away from your pet. I encourage you to check out my reviews! Several of the dogs I watch have been regulars for many, many years and I hope this demonstrates to you the dedication and love I have for sitting. Thank you again for visiting my page and please reach out with any and all questions!

Alaina gives our pup a loving home and, during this stay, managed to evade the big rain (strategically taking puppy out between rain showers). She is very reliable and sends nice photo updates. Thank you again.

Alaina is consistently the best sitter I've found. She's communicative, proactive, and caring. I always know my little guy is in good hands with her. The only reason I'd use anyone else is if she's already booked.

Alaina and her boyfriend took wonderful care of our puppy, giving him a sweet home away from home. They send us photos everyday. And their cute doggie gets along with ours very well. Thank you Alaina.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog park at my apartment as well as a quiet, residential, safe area for walks. My dog and others are always fed separately and never left alone together. Safety is a top priority for me when it comes to sitting and boarding.
