What to know about us: ----My husband Devon and I have been Rover sitters for 11 years now and love it! ----We love getting repeat stays! ----I’m a stay at home mom so your dog will always be supervised and have company. ----I have a small pomeranian who is used to being around strange dogs. ----I do not accept more than 1 family at a time to minimize stress on your dog. If there is an overlap of a day or two I’ll let you know about the other dog. ----I love sending pictures ----Hardwood floors and fenced in backyard ----I have lived in 3 different cities while on Rover so my reviews and pictures are a little old as I have moved around. We are from Minnesota though.

I was so happy with the care Tillie received. All of the updates about her were very clear and precise.

Alaina takes excellent care of our pups! We were on vacation for 2 weeks and she kept in consistent contact with us, letting me know how they were doing. I highly recommend her!!

Alaina was absolutely fantastic with my dog! She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares deeply about animals. My dog came back happy, calm, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and Alaina went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter!

Alaina and Devon took amazing care of our two chihuahuas. Their timely communication, ability to follow our care instructions, including administering medications, and their willingness to accommodate the last minute changes to our travel schedule was so appreciated. We felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs in their care and will be using them again next time we travel. Thanks Alaina and Devon!!

We love Alaina and her family for our dog Hazel! They treat her like family! Hazel has been with them numerous times and every time it’s 5 star treatment! Will only take Hazel to them whenever needed. They are the best!!
