About Alaina R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
With all pets, routines are essential! For drop-in visits, my goal is to make your pet feel like everything is super normal and chill and fun. Does your dog prefer to pee on the fire hydrant down the block? You got it. Does your cat only eat out of her favorite dish? Same. No detail is too small!
Information Alaina R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, or any behaviors I should be on the lookout for. I'm good at redirecting dogs away from situations that can be triggering, especially if I have a heads up!
A typical day
Let me know about favored areas around your home that your dog likes to go by! Happy to do the routine route, or switch it up and find some new smells! I love to play fetch and tug o' war with the favorite toy.

Pet care experience
I've lived with and loved on dogs of all sizes and ages, from a brand-new Yorkie pup, to a 16-year-old German shepherd, to a full-grown great dane who's afraid of her own shadow. Though I am not a certified animal behavior expert, I have years of experience caring for dogs who have had a hard life and might have some behavioral challenges. I'm also a wizard at feeding pills and trimming nails!

Reviews

Alaina was amazing! She shared great updates and Sherwin absolutely loved her.

She is awesome!

Alaina was wonderful with daily walks for our dog! Her communication was on point from the first meet and greet all the way through the little notes she left on the daily walk reports. Would definitely hire her again in the future!

We have a very anxious dog and she does not warm up to strangers very easily. Alania was very patient with her and our dog immediately was very comfortable with her.
