Ratings and reviews
Alana was the best sitter we could hope for. She and her husband are loving and dedicated. Their home and yard is a paradise for any dog. Brody can’t wait for us to visit San Diego again so he can stay with his new step family!

Alana is the best dog sitter you can find! Her and her husband are so kind and attentive dog people. Alana watched our dog Sadie for just over two weeks and we got pictures and updates every day. We never for a second worried about Sadie. She was having the best vacation ever, and she immediately feels at home with Alana! Thank you!!!!

We had a wonderful experience with Alana. She was very attentive to our dog's specific needs and followed our care instructions to the letter. The frequent updates and photos really allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our pup was in good hands. We’re so confident in her care that we’ve already booked her for another upcoming trip. Thank you!

It gave me peace of mind to know that my dog was in caring hands. Very attentive and kind. I would highly recommend them for anybody who is looking for a reliable and attentive Dog Sitter. It was home away from home for my dog.

I left Rio with Alana and her husband. This was my first time leaving Rio with them and they were amazing! They sent regular checks in and made Rio as comfortable as possible! I’d definitely recommend and I’ll be using Alana again! Thank you again for looking after Rio!

Alana took wonder care of our dog over three stays. While our pup can be a bit nervous at first, she warmed up to Alana very quickly, which speaks volumes about her calm, caring approach. Alana was attentive, thoughtful, and clearly made our pup feel safe and comfortable. We loved the updates and regular communication which let us see what a great time our pup was having. We felt completely at ease while we were away and are so grateful to have found Alana. We absolutely plan to continue booking with her and highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly excellent care.

Schedule
Whether your dog thrives on structure or prefers a go with the flow lifestyle, I’ll tailor the experience to your pet’s specific needs, routines, preferences, and emotional well being.

Safety, trust & environment
I specialize in 1-on-1 care for small dogs under 25 lbs, offering a calm setting that feels like home with five star attention. I also welcome dogs from the same family who would like to stay together in a calm environment. Your dog will always be supervised and never crated unless requested, and your fur baby will always receive my full presence and gentle energy. My peaceful, temperature controlled home features cozy dog beds, comfy furniture, crate options (if your pup prefers), and soft rug and wood floors. For outdoor fun, your dog will enjoy a private, double fenced, turfed, fully enclosed backyard with shady mature trees, sunny spots for lounging, and multiple fresh water stations. We also take relaxing, leashed walks around our quiet, scenic neighborhood. I’m up from dawn until midnight, and your pup will never be left alone. My husband also works from home and offers an extra set of caring hands when needed. Whether you’re away for an hour, a day, or an extended trip, you’ll have total peace of mind knowing your dog is cared for like a cherished family member, with nurturing detail oriented, and loving attention.
