LAKEWOOD RANCH, NEAR WATERSIDE 👅

Pet care experience

👅 DOG SITTING FOR DOGS WHO HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR 👅 Your dog deserves to feel loved and have fun while you are on vacation! I'm a lifelong dog lover Hi! I’m Alessandra (or just Ali) I’ve made it my mission to create a dog-sitting experience like no other. Before embarking on this exciting journey, I had a 10-year career in the entertainment industry as an actress, comedian, and writer and 6 years as a photographer. This unique background allows me to add an extra touch of fun and laughter to your dog’s stay.

Ali is amazing with dogs. She took such great care of our Lola. Daily walks and bike rides! Lola didn’t want to come home. Thank you so much Ali!

Ali is the BEST!!! Our Oz just finished a stay with her and we could not be more pleased. She took care of him like he was her own. We were always updated with pictures and texts. It was fun to see all of fun he was having. He LOVED his time with Ali and her family. He now has an extended family!!!! And not only is she a great pet sitter but she is an awesome pet photographer! A true WIN/WIN.

Amazing!!! Ali welcomed our golden Coco in to her home as if it was her own! Ali’s energy is so calm and caring which makes it for such an easy transition. Dogs love her and she loves tight back. There is nothing Ali won’t do to make your pet feel at home. Sharing her bed, extra cuddles, bike rides, and a full dress up Barbie party just for fun. What I appreciate immensely is that there is constant communication! You’ll get plenty of updates and pics of your fur baby. Thanks Ali and your sweet family for welcoming our babies into your home.

But It's not just about the fun. I prioritize your dog’s well-being, safety, and health. As a stay-at-home mom, I offer round-the-clock care, play-time, walks, and cuddles. Our dog-friendly neighborhood has two great dog parks (for small and big dogs) where your dog can make friends, run, socialize and create lasting memories.
