Pet care experience

Experienced dog foster and sitter

I'm an experienced dog rescuer and doggie foster home. I’ve fostered everything from feral rescues to goofy high-energy pups, so I’m comfortable with dogs on both ends of the spectrum. I read dog body language well and meet them where they’re at—whether that means a slow, gentle approach or a good romp in the yard. I absolutely love dogs and their company.

Ali looked after my two dogs during my family move. She communicated daily, sent photos and provided updates. Unfortunately my dogs got into a fight and Ali got hurt in the process of breaking their fight. She handled the situation very well. I appreciate her care for my dogs. Would highly recommended her.

Ali C. was great with my Border Collie Mix, Annie. They went on long walks twice a day to make sure Annie got a lot of exercise. Ali sent me pictures every day, l could tell Annie enjoyed staying with Ali. l knew Annie was being taken care of very good. I would highly recommend Ali to take care of your fur babies. Thank you Ali for a great in your house boarding. Annie, Lois and Alan

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, things stay calm, safe, and structured so dogs settle in fast. I spend the first day or two really reading your dog—figuring out their pace, preferences, and what makes them comfortable. I follow whatever routine they’re used to for meals, walks, crates, and play. High-energy pups get fun outlets and romps, while shy dogs get space to warm up at their own speed. Whatever their personality, I make sure they feel understood, relaxed, and right at home.

A typical day

I tailor activities to your dog’s personality—romps and play for the energetic ones, sniff walks for the curious ones, and cozy hangouts for the mellow or shy pups. I keep them engaged, happy, and doing the things they naturally enjoy most.
