Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for all pets in my care. I live in a house with a fenced yard, which allows pets to play and explore safely under supervision. I always make sure pets are secure and never left unattended outside .Since I work from home part of the day, I am able to supervise pets closely and provide regular attention, potty breaks, playtime, and feeding according to their routine.I treat every pet like part of my family and follow all instructions from pet owners carefully to ensure consistency and comfort. I introduce pets slowly and carefully to my own dog and always supervise interactions to ensure everyone gets along safely. I also have two children, and I make sure that any pets in my home are comfortable around kids. All interactions are supervised to keep both pets and children safe and happy.

Information Albina M. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for any pet, it’s important for me to know their feeding schedule, portion sizes, and any special dietary needs or allergies. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to keep pets safe and comfortable. It’s also helpful to know about any medical conditions, medications, or behaviors like anxiety or reactivity so I can provide the best care possible. Clear communication helps me make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home.

A typical day

A typical day in my home starts with morning potty breaks, feeding, and some gentle attention so pets feel comfortable and settled. Since I work from home for a few hours in the morning, pets are not left alone for long and get regular check-ins and care throughout the day. During the day, we do a mix of playtime, short walks, and outdoor time in my fenced yard where pets can safely run, explore, and have fun. I also make sure they have quiet time to rest and relax, especially if they prefer a calmer environment. In the evening, I focus on feeding, another walk or potty break, and cuddle time so pets feel calm, happy, and at home. I always follow each pet’s routine and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while staying with me.

Pet care experience

I grew up with pets and have always had dogs and cats in my home, so caring for animals comes very naturally to me. I’m a proud cat mom and also have a friendly, playful 2-year-old Labrador who loves being around other dogs. I work from home for a few hours in the morning, so I’m home all day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I live in a house with a big fenced yard, providing a safe space for pets to play and feel comfortable. I also have two young children, so it’s important to me that pets are friendly and comfortable around kids. My kids are gentle and used to being around animals, and I always supervise interactions to make sure everyone is safe and happy. I treat every pet like part of the family and always follow their routine to help them feel at home while you’re away.

Albina is a great sitter. Very responsive. She has a fenced in backyard and our lab loves playing with her lab in the backyard. She will keep you updated on your pet with pictures and videos. Her kids loved on my dog.

I’m very careful with who I allow to care for my dog. He definitely needs a caring home environment. After a meet and greet I knew Albina would care for Chico the way that I would. While he was at her house she sent pictures and videos and I could tell that he was comfortable and happy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs someone to CARE for the dog!!!! Thanks again.
