A typical day

We can go for fun walks around the neighborhood or I can just drop in to make your pup has potty time, love/play time, and other necessaries. I am familiar with giving oral medications to cats and dogs. Ossy is a calmer boy that loves to play with others and can show them the way.

Loving Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Alena. I love all animals and am experienced with dogs, cats, fish, small pets, and more! In the past, I have pet sat in neighborhoods, walked dogs, and volunteered at the Virginia Beach SPCA. I’m experienced with most dog breeds, ages, collars, harnesses, leashes and more to give your pup the right care. I would love to walk or meet your dog someday when you need! I have cared for and fostered many kittens throughout my years fostering at Jax Humane Society and volunteering at the VBVA SPCA. I have had plenty of my own small pets and plenty of pups over the years. I love participating in the Dogs Day Out program and fostering when I am able. Your pet will be able to free roam the house, and access the doggy door to a good size backyard. I work most early mornings to early afternoons then I will home the rest of the time to give plenty of love and attention to them. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your pets!

Great communicator. Worked with me on very short notice need. She’s a gem and we’re happy she’s the one to watch our loveable mut!
