Ratings and reviews
Alen took such wonderful care of our dog for two full weeks, and we couldn’t be more grateful. He made her stay extra special with regular walks to the beach and plenty of cuddles and attention. It was clear she was loved and well cared for the entire time. Alen was also incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Marley came home a very happy pup — we would absolutely trust Alen again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable dog sitter
Alen was great with our kittens while we were out of town! Very attentive and communicative. Thank you so much!
Having used Rover many times, I can confidently say that Alen is one of the best sitters I’ve worked with. He is very communicative and caring, and he took amazing care of my dog Raphael when I was traveling. I could tell Raphael was very happy and comfortable with Alen, and they got to do so many fun activities together. He really went above and beyond to care for Raphael and I am so grateful for his care.
Alen is a natural with dogs and put our anxious girl at ease! He got our dog great exercise and ensure she spent safe time playing off leash as well as walking on leash. We also appreciated good communication and photos! We definitely look forward to boarding with alen again.
Super responsive, obviously loves and cares a lot when it comes to dogs. Alen took tons of great photos and also sent strava updates covering 6+miles a day with the my dogs which was great. Highly recommend!
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Alen for over 20 years, and I can confidently say he’s one of the most reliable and kind-hearted people I know. He cared for his cat for more than a decade, and she was incredibly approachable and affectionate—an unmistakable reflection of Alen’s own gentle and patient nature. Alen’s nurturing spirit really shines through in how he raised his son. His calm demeanor, responsibility, and genuine care for others make him someone you can fully trust with any pet.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced backyard. Home is safe for pets. No chemicals. Your pets are going to be usually glued to me in my home. If your pets don't get along I have separate rooms.
A typical day
I'm 5 minutes away from lands end. I usually like to walk down to the mile rock beach and let the dogs run. I go outside 4 to 6 times a day. Spend about 3 to 6 miles walking.
