Eat. Play. Love.

Pet care experience

There has never been a period in my life where I have not had a dog by my side. Learning to care for them was one of my first responsibilities growing up. I have had experience with small breeds as well as large breeds, whether it be my own or dog sitting for family and/or friends. I absolutely love them, especially getting to know each pup’s personality, and of course, the cuddles!

Alessandra was wonderful! She loved on our fur baby a lot and sent us lots of pictures and videos that it was obvious Henry was having a wonderful loving time in her care! Her sweet dog and our Henry got along wonderfully, and I will definitely use her services again in the future!

Our dog came back happy. Alessandra sent some pics and a little video. Can't ask for more! I would use her again for sure.

Safety, trust & environment

Although my townhouse does not have a yard, I have a huge grass area in the back with plenty of room to walk on leash. And when we need some time to play off leash, there is a small dog park at the end of the block for us residents only. I have a large kennel in my house that my dog no longer uses, so there is no need to worry about having to bring your own crate if you prefer your fur baby to spend some time in one. My german shepherd is four years old and loves making new friends, so I please ask that your fur baby is friendly as well and is comfortable around larger breeds

Information Alessandra A. would like to know about your pet

As mentioned before, I please ask that your fur baby is comfortable around large breed dogs. Additionally, with me working a "9-5" type job for the time being, I would suggest booking with a different sitter who is away from home for a shorter timespan than myself if you feel your fur baby needs to be around a human more often. If there is anything else for me to know ahead of time, or if you have any additional questions please do not hesitate to ask! I want to make sure your fur baby feels at home while you are away, and I also want to make sure I can ease any nerves you may have while away from them. :)

A typical day

My dog (Nash) and I love taking walks around our neighborhood. When the weather allows, we also like to spend time using the Sokol trails which are down the street from us. With so many places to explore outside and a huge amount of toys inside, your fur baby will never be bored.

I work Wednesday-Sunday from 8-4. I wake up early to ensure all fur babies in my care get a quick morning walk in before I need to leave. If your fur baby requires potty breaks a bit more often than others, I work 7 minutes from home, and could let them out during my lunch break!
