I am able to care for your pet at your home or my home. I will safely enter and leave the house as to not let any pet out of the door. I will ensure we have the equipment we need to have a safe and fun walk. I do ask that owners leave all necessary gear such as harness/leash/poop bags, in one area by the door for easy access. I can crate your dog if needed. And can offer outdoor playtime in your fenced yard.

Information Alana W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any behavioral challenges and how they are around other dogs and people. As a general rule, when I walk dogs, I stay clear of others and change sides of the street safely, if needed.

A typical day

I love to walk the neighborhood and nearby parks. I am willing to work with you to find what walk and activity works best for your dog. I can play fetch or tug with your dog in a safe inclosed yard or in your home if needed.

Professional Dog Training & Pet Care You Can Trust Hi! I’m a dedicated dog trainer and pet care professional with over a decade of experience, offering pet services since 2015. I offer dog training, as well as provide reliable dog walking and pet sitting for clients who want knowledgeable, compassionate care for their dogs. I am GoodPup Trainer Certified and have completed a hands-on apprenticeship, giving me both the technical knowledge and real-world experience needed to help dogs and their humans succeed. My training style is positive, clear, and tailored to each dog, focusing on building strong communication, confidence, and good behavior that lasts. I’ve worked with dogs of many ages, temperaments, and energy levels — from puppies learning the basics to adult dogs needing structure, manners, or behavior support. Whether you’re looking for foundational training, ongoing reinforcement, or a trainer who truly understands dogs, I’m here to help. Dogs have always been a central part of my life. I shared many wonderful years with my own dog, who passed in 2025. Caring for her deepened my understanding of canine behavior, patience, and the importance of consistent, compassionate care. I also volunteer working with dogs, which allows me to continue giving back while expanding my experience with different personalities and needs. These experiences influence my care for every dog, rooted in patience, understanding, and respect. Services Offered: Dog training (puppies & adults) Behavior support and reinforcement Dog walking Pet sitting If you’re looking for a knowledgeable trainer and dependable pet care provider who truly puts your dog first, I’d love to work with you.

Walking our dog, Penelope, can be tough because even though she’s so sweet and loving at home, she is leash reactive and can be difficult to handle. This was our first trip away after moving to the area so we were a little hesitant. But Alana was fantastic. We did a meet and greet, she handled everything with patience and kindness, took great care of Penelope while we were away and even checked in after. We are so so grateful and look forward to working with her in the future!

Alana is awesome! She took my two dogs out for walks while I was out of town. I have a boarder collie mix that can be leash aggressive and she handled him professionally (her dog has it also). I'd 100% recommended her!

Alana is literally the best dog sitter we've ever had. She is extremely responsible and reliable, is loving and attentive to the dogs' needs, and will truthfully follow any instructions or requests you give to ensure the dogs health, happiness and safety. She promptly communicates if she has any questions or concerns, and she has a genuine interest in getting to know your dogs and cares about their wellbeing. Over the last several years, I've hired Alana on multiple occasions for both short term and long term dog care at our house while we were away, and each time we return, both our home and our dogs are in a better state than when we left. Dogs are smart and sensitive - whether they have been walked regularly and plentifully, whether they received loving attention and had positive interaction, clearly shows up in the condition of their coat, mood, attitude and behavior, and I can assure that my dogs receive the finest care possible from Alana. We've had many dog sitters before, and our dogs chose Alana!
