Availability
As a pet parent to a senior dog with separation anxiety, a senior cat, and a high energy golden retriever, pet care is already an essential part of my everyday life. My mornings start with the 1st meal of the day, making sure water bowls are filled, they have gone outside & have done their business, & structured walks and individual attention giving my golden retriever the active start he needs, while making sure my senior pets have a calm, predictable routine that suits their pace. Throughout the day, I ensure everyone gets what they need, their dinner, their playtime in the pool, medication, & quiet snuggles. This experience makes me highly adjusted to different energy levels, medical needs, and emotional cues, and it’s made pet care second nature in both my daily and weekly routines. It also means I’m never far from a leash, a toy, or a comforting word because I truly love and live this life every day!

About Alana R.

Safety, trust & environment
As a dedicated and responsible pet sitter, I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress free environment for your pet while you're away! I prioritize maintaining your pet’s routine, whether it's feeding, playtime, walks, or simply cuddling on the couch. I make sure that your pet receives the care and attention they need, any special instructions you provide, from medical needs to behavioral needs. Your pet’s well being is my top priority, and I’m committed to giving them the same level of care and affection I would give to my own. As a girl that can’t imagine life without my 3 pets, you can trust me to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and secure, while keeping you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you can rest easy while you’re away!
Information Alana R. would like to know about your pet
I do like to meet and get to know the pet before hand! I like a written schedule & a list of any do’s and don’t for the pet, any allergies, medication, special toys, & I prioritize making the pet as comfortable, adjustable, and safe as it needs.
A typical day
Take dogs on walks, play fetch, if they love the water swimming, winding down cuddling. I do fun obstacle courses indoors or outside with my dogs so I could do the same for your pets! For cats, use interactive toys, laser pointers, or build a cozy window for bird watching (my cat loves that) I can offer puzzle feeders or treat dispensing toys to keep them stimulated. Groom them gently for bonding time. If you're watching small pets like rabbits or guinea pigs, create safe play areas with tunnels and hideouts. For birds, engage them with music or teach simple words. Always ensure activities are safe and suitable for each pet’s breed, age, and energy level.

Endless love and care for pets!!
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Alana. I’m based in the Conroe/Willis area, but I’m currently a sophomore at UTSA pursuing my master’s degree in Psychology, so I’m also available in the San Antonio area! I keep my calendar updated regularly, but feel free to message me anytime with questions or availability inquiries. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Pets hold such a special place in my heart, not only because they’re adorable, but because of the unconditional love and joy they bring into our lives. Pet sitting is more than just a job to me, it’s something I truly care about. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication routines, or cozy cuddle time, I’m here to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always played an active role in their care. I have a 14 year old cat named Tootie, whom I’ve had since I was 4 years old, and I now care for her full time to ensure she stays comfortable and well loved. I also help care for our 13 year old Flat Coated Retriever, Lucy, who has separation anxiety and arthritis, as well as our energetic 7-year-old Golden Retriever, Dino. Caring for pets with different personalities, ages, and needs has given me hands on experience with administering medications, maintaining routines, exercise, emotional support, and senior pet care. I’ve also pet sat for both dogs and cats outside of my home, and I always approach every experience with patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals of all ages.

Reviews
Alana was phenomenal! It was my first time trusting someone else with my fur babies, and she made me feel completely at ease. She kept me updated regularly and cared for my babies as if they were her own. I will definitely be booking her for future trips and dog walks. She watched them for five days and communicated with me the entire time. A million times thank you!
