Pet care experience
Here’s a little bit more about me :) Lover of cats and dogs! In 2019 I graduated from MATC and became a Certified Veterinary Technician; additionally I’ve worked several years with pups in a daycare setting along with pet sitting, as well as having my two kitties (Taz + Deja) and my Bernedoodle pup (Dio)! Prior to 2019 I have worked and volunteered with animals since I was a kid! From working as a caretaker at my local shelter, to volunteering at the zoo, I’ve always cherished my time taking care and spending time with animals big and small!
Reviews
Alana was fantastic! She went above and beyond -- great communication, very detailed and focused on providing excellent care for our beloved German Shepherd while we were away. And a bonus...her talents include photography (she sent us some sweet photos)! Thank you.
Alana R. has been nothing short of fantastic with our beloved bernedoodle! Alana provides safe, loving care for our dog, and provides excellent customer service. We have done doggie daycare with Alana as well as in-home, overnight, and extended care. Our dog loves Alana and is always super excited to see her! She is gentle and loving with all of the pets in her care. I fully trust her to care for my dog and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a kind, gentle, responsible human to care for their pet(s)!
Alana was AMAZING for my boy Ori. As a puppy it was his first big day staying away from home, and Alana went above and beyond to make sure his stay was just right. Ori became fast friends with Dio, Alana’s very sweet and well socialized bernedoodle, and the two played their hearts out. Alana was responsive and quick to provide lots of pupdates of walks, play time, and cuddle time, and set our hearts at ease. We couldn’t ask for a better companionship at his home away from home. THANKS Alana and Dio! ?
Alana is an excellent dog sitter and pet caregiver in general. My wife and I met her because she works full time at a local doggy daycare and offered to watch our pet for a family vacation. She made sure our do got her medicines, supervised play diligently, and helped her have an amazing week. Since then we've trusted our dog with Alana for every trip. I cannot vouch for her strongly enough, I promise this is not some canned testimonial.

Safety, trust & environment
When your pet is in my care, I will love them like my own! Pets are family and I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them. I always provide photos (and one professional digital shot) of the fun we are having & updates throughout their stay so you know they are comfortable and happy while you’re away! :) I highly recommend scheduling a meet and greet prior to the stay when able. As this is a wonderful time for you and your pet(s) to become familiar and comfortable with me. Additionally we can review our plan for their stay such as their feeding schedule, potty breaks, favorite activities, etc. and I can answer any questions you may have. :)
Information Alana R. would like to know about your pet
Info I like to know in advance: What will your pet enjoy during my visit most?! (Toys, treats, cuddles, pets, walks, etc.) Do they have any special needs or preferences?
A typical day
Whether it’s taking a long adventure around the neighborhood, cuddles + pets on the couch, or playing with their favorite toys, I’m excited to spend quality time with your kitty or pup and want to provide the best care possible for them.
