23 Years of Pet Care Experience

Pet care experience

Trusting others with a beloved member of your family is difficult. I have been in your shoes and strongly recall the desperate hope that my dog would be safe and happy with a stranger I selected to care for them in my absence. I have over 2 decades of experience in meeting the needs of pets at every stage of life. After raising, training, and caring for horses and dogs since I was 7, I am well versed in pet care and animal behavior. I take seriously the concerns and detailed requests of pet parents regarding their pet’s care.

Alina was amazing with our anxious big pup and we really couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Alina followed all of our instructions and was very communicative. She sent multiple photos a day and we could tell Frankie was very comfortable with her. Will definitely book with Alina again!!!

Alina took care of our puppies, Johnny & June, so well and like a true expert! She is so easy to communicate with and sent frequent puppy pics and vids throughout the day. Alina will be my go-to anytime we need a pup-sitter, and I’m so grateful we found her!

Alina was amazing from moment one. She was very communicative and understanding which put us at ease as we are very nervous cat parents! Our cat is not very trusting or social with anyone besides her parents, but Alina cared for her in the home while giving her the space she needed. We came home to a happy and healthy cat!

Safety, trust & environment

At this time, I am only offering housesitting services. Caring for your pet in the comfort of their own home often helps with their stress and happiness while their family is away. I also like to provide the comfort of routine and will be happy to discuss all their norms and quirks. The health, happiness, and safety of your pets will be my priority while they’re in my care. Keeping your home secure is an extension of this. Before finalizing a booking, I’d be happy to meet with you to not only discuss all the facets of your pet’s care, but also to familiarize myself with all expectations regarding your home.

Information Alina B. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any special needs, especially medical regimens or concerns, please let me know. I can accommodate most needs and believe forewarned is forearmed. Please feel free to message me about your pets’ normal routines, quirks, and any pertinent information I might need to make sure they have a safe and enjoyable stay!

A typical day

I love to get outside with your dog! Not only can we play in a backyard, but I’m happy to go to neighborhood walking paths, trails in the city, and the dog park if they’re comfortable with it. It’s always fun to see how happy your dog is when we go on adventures! I recognize exposure to strangers and other dogs isn’t every pup’s cup of tea, though. If your dog has some reactivity concerns, I’m happy to play around at home with them or take them out for walks where interaction with others are quite limited. I have cared for many reactive dogs and am happy to discuss your dog’s specific needs so they can have the best experience possible.

I’m fortunate to have an exceptionally flexible schedule and only need a wifi connection to get my personal work done. This allows me to engage with your pet frequently throughout the day and offer them affection, play time, and mental interaction often.
