Pet care experience

Love is a 4 legged word!

Dogs bring so much joy to my life. I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I have been taking care of my friends and family’s animals for well over 15 years. My boyfriend and I have recently adopted our first dog, Rojo, a rescue from Texas. I don’t know how I ever lived my life without him. My absolute favorite thing is to take him to the dog park and play with all the other dogs there. I get along great with dogs and cats and the skills that I have acquired by working in hospitality will allow me to get along with you too! I am very reliable, considerate and patient. I truly hope you will allow me to help you take care of your furry baby!

Alena is amazing. She was prompt, communicative, and Wagner loves her. Her visit descriptions were cute and she took the best pictures of their adventures together.

Alena was wonderful with my two furbabies. Even my shy, stand-offish dog warmed up to her while we were gone. She was great with daily updates and asked questions if she needed to. I would definitely book her again!

Alana is amazing - she has come for two different overnight stays and I always feel like our crazy dog is well taken care of. Our sweet little rescue has a lot of anxiety but that didn’t put off Alena - she was patient and understanding with Pedro until he felt comfortable and now they are fast friends. When she arrived for the second overnighter, Pedro knew exactly who she was and didn’t show her any signs of anxiety. We are so delighted and reassured that we have someone to call who will take the time to make our dog feel comfortable!

Dog Walking • Aug 04, 2021

Alena is amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my 2 dogs were walked and comfortable while we were away. Her dog, Rojo, is super friendly (and adorable) and even shared his toy ball while Alena tried to teach my dogs to fetch. She sent pictures and updates after every walk so it was a relief knowing they were having fun and were genuinely cared for. It'll be hard to trust anyone else to watch my dogs after the wonderful care Alena provided and I'm sure my dogs miss her.

Alena was AMAZING watching my two overzealous and very active German Shepherds. Not only was she able to house sit for me at the last minute, she took wonderful care of the dogs and the house. They had a great time with her and were even tired when I returned home (which is an accomplishment that few can achieve). I will definitely use Alena again whenever I need house sitting.

I couldn't be happier. This was the first time leaving Sophie alone, and Alena was the perfect choice. I will definitely use her the next time I go out of town.
