Availability
I care for pets in my home alongside my mother who also lives here. That way there is always someone home to take of them if one of us has to step out. Our daily routine depends on the dogs' needs, which can be discussed upon booking. We can regularly visit the local parks, go for walks on the 606 trail, or sit and cool of in the air conditioned home.

About Alana W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for every pet as my own. That includes proper care, exercise, enrichment, as well as first aid and medication if needed. I will follow whatever directions you leave for your dog while in my care. I also bring plenty of treats with me during my visit so let me know if they have any restrictions.
Home
Information Alana W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know any special needs your dog has including food allergies, illnesses, and detailed feeding and medication instructions. Please also include information about your dog’s personality and any past experiences that would be helpful for me to know. Please be as transparent with me as possible so everyone can remain safe. *all bookings will require a prior meet and greet.
A typical day
Typically dogs will be inside. Although we do not have a yard, the dogs are free to access our fenced patio. We have a spacious home where dogs can be seperated if needed, but doggy residents will typically reside on the first floor (away from the cats unless otherwise approved). I love to have fun so there will be plenty of play and summer outings with owner approval. If I leave to go somewhere during housesitting bookings I can bring your pet along with owner approval. Or we can sit in a nearby park for a while if the weather is nice.

Fun and trustworthy dog sitter!
Pet care experience
I’ve always loved dogs and knew I wanted to work with them in the future. I have volunteered at local shelters since I was in high school. I have three years of working in a professional dog daycare. I was also a volunteer at a local shelter where I would take shelter dogs to training every week to help them find their homes! I treat every dog I work with as my own. I would love to have fun with your dog or just keep them company for a while! Also open to other pets. I have experience with deaf, blind, disabled, and senior dogs as well as administering medications. *currently only taking dogs up to 30lbs

Reviews

Always willing to help and is really great with our dog. Highly recommend.

Amazing sitter! Super responsive, provided daily photos and updates, and took amazing care of Connor. He's normally stressed when we return from a trip and he was happy as can be. Her little one (Peanut) was also a delight. Alana also left the house spotless. Would highly recommend. Thank you!
I recommend Alana because she is the best pet caregiver I know! She is responsible and loving to all pets. She is amazing with dogs and takes care of my cute little puppy very well. She is like a dog whisperer. There is no one far more reliable, credible, knowledgable in taking care of pets than Alana. I know I am putting my puppy in very good hands and makes me have one less thing to worry about when I'm out.
Me and my furry baby Winter loves Alana! She watches her while I go on business trips and Winter loves her. She makes sure that Winter is walked multiple times a day, entertained, and keeps up with her daily activities so she doesn’t miss a beat while I am gone. She treats Winter like her own and is so loving to her. Me and Winter have had our fair share of pet sitters but we have found my permanent friend with Alana!
