Pet care experience

Caring for every pet like it’s mine

My best friend of 15 years and her family have two wonderful dogs, a doodle and a lab who I have taken care of so many times. I even watched the doodle when she was just a few months old for about a week during a snow storm while her family was on vacation. They’re a handful but so much fun. I have also cat-sit for up to 3-weeks on end. Giving medicine, checking for packages, and updating if anything seems off.

Safety, trust & environment

I go above and beyond noting things like if the house temperature is uncomfortable for said pet. I keep them under constant supervision and won’t leave them alone for more than a few hours unless discussed otherwise. I am very thorough and will take extra time to make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe with a new person around them. I know what it takes to be patient with pets.

Alina was wonderful! She communicated with us regularly throughout the week, asked thoughtful questions when needed, and made sure everything was taken care of for both our dogs and our home. She was friendly, reliable, and our dogs absolutely loved her. We were so grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

Alina is simply wonderful. She has watched our dogs and fish often during the last 7 years. From overnights with a crying puppy to doggie walks, Alina is excellent at caring for them. She is dependable, committed, and communicates well. I highly recommend her to care for your pets. I know that she loves them as if they were her own.

Alina is an amazing pet/house sitter! I've known her a very long time, and she has been caring for our family pets for the last 8-10 years. Alina grew up in a house full of cats; she has a huge heart for animals and is very responsible. I've done a lot of traveling in the past 3 years, and Alina consistently comes as often as I request, always doing a great job of keeping the litter clean, providing food/snacks/clean water, and medications when needed. She knows my cat well enough she will text me if she thinks his behavior is unusual or out of character. She's also great at making sure packages are brought in, lights are off, etc. I highly recommend Alina!

Let me know if there’s any quirks with your pet. For example, when watching my best friends doodle, she must do her dance around her bowl before she eats. But, only if you sit next to her without looking at her. I understand that each pet has their own goofy personalities and nothing is too silly.
