Pet care experience
Your Pup's Best Friend!
Your dog will stay in a calm, family home — not a kennel. I have gentle, respectful children who are very comfortable around dogs, creating a warm, home-style environment with plenty of natural companionship. For safety reasons, all dogs must be friendly with children. I want every dog to stay happy and healthy! Please make sure your pup is up-to-date on RABIES VACCINATION and PROTECTED AGAINST FLEAS. You’ll receive daily updates with at least 4 photos (and often videos as well), so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have extensive experience with dogs of various breeds and temperaments and focus on individualized, high-quality care — from medications and senior support to extra playtime and affection. In good weather, dogs enjoy several hours outside for fresh air, play, and enrichment.

Ratings and reviews
We appreciate Alina so much for taking our dogs on fairly short notice. Our dogs were happy and she stayed in touch 😊
Wonderful Rover experience! Alina was very friendly and my dog felt right at home. Frequent updates with great pictures, and my dog seemed to have a great time. Five out of five experience.
Alina brings your pup into her family! My SR. Pup had a great summer camp experience and was sad to leave. I’d recommend Alina to anyone who has a social pup! Thank you Alina for a fast response to my original request, your flexibility to extend last minute, your ability to medicate my pup as requested and making him part of your family! Thank you!!!!!
Alina & family took good care of our little pup. Alina shared lots of pics while we were away. Our girl can be quite apprehensive but Alina was a pro & put our pup at ease.
Margo had a great time! The picture updates were amazing!
Alina is a wonderful, caring person! I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her! She shares pictures of him and he looks right at home. I highly recommend using Alina to care for your fur babies!

Schedule
I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive, hands-on care throughout the day. Our day usually starts around 7:00 am. The last potty break is typically around 9:00 pm, unless a dog needs or asks to go out later. Dogs are fed according to their usual routine. After meals, they always go outside, followed by backyard playtime. I try to keep each dog’s normal schedule as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and settled. I’m home most of the day, so dogs are never left alone for too long (no longer than 2 hours) Potty breaks are provided every 2–3 hours (or more often if needed). All dogs must be fully potty trained! Accidents happen and it's ok. BUT if a dog marks excessively, has repeated accidents, there's a $100 fee.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a quiet neighborhood with a non-fenced yard. When weather allows, we spend a lot of time outdoors. The yard is set up for dogs to enjoy safely — we have plenty of toys, a wading pool in warm weather, and a long tie-out cable for dogs. Dogs are never left alone outside. If your dog is crate trained and if you want to, you dog can sleep in a crate- you may bring your own. If your dog is not crate trained or if you don't want your dog to sleep in a crate and instead sleep in its own bed/couch/floor- they are more than welcome to do so! But you will be responsible for damages if any occur!(dogs may act differently in a new environment). A minimum damage fee is $100 Again, because this is not a kennel,this is a family home!

A typical day
I'm home all the time. I may leave for an hour or so, for grocery shopping or for my kids after-school classes. Dogs are never left alone for too long (no longer than 2 hours) Our days are relaxed, active, and tailored to each dog’s needs and energy level. Activities may include: Backyard play and fetch Walks around the neighborhood or on nearby trails Light training and reinforcement of basic commands Water play or swimming during trail walks (weather and dog-dependent) Plenty of downtime for cuddles, naps, and relaxing together at home I aim for a balanced day — exercise, mental stimulation, and calm rest, just like a dog would have at home.
