Dog-lovin’ Family with Fenced Yard
Pet care experience
Hi, everyone! My name is Alina. I have over 22 years of experience with dogs. My husband and I currently have a female cavalier king charles spaniel (she loves playing with other dogs). When booking me to take care of your four-legged child, your furbaby is guaranteed to have an enjoyable stay! We have a large fenced-in yard where your pup can run and play. Due to our current work schedules, my husband and I are home throughout the week, so your pup will more than likely have plenty of company. If you book with me, I'll make sure to send you plenty of pictures/updates regarding your pup's stay! Please contact us if you have any questions.
Reviews
Alina and her husband were amazing. They regularly sent us pictures and were more than cooperative with scheduling pick up and drop off times. They treated Chewie like their own and it was clear that he was having a blast. I hope to use them again in the future!
Alina presented with a genuine compassion and warmth. Ace enjoyed himself and slept through the night after his time with Alina. I will certainly book with her again!
Alina took such amazing care of Zelda while I was on vacation. She sent regular picture updates. Zelda looked so happy during her whole stay with Alina. She was also very prompt with replying to messages. I am definitely planning to use her again next time I need a dogsitter.
Alina was amazing. She took the reservation on short notice and was so friendly and accommodating. She sent frequent updates on how our English Bulldog was doing with the hot D.C. weather and sent daily pictures - so reassuring while were gone for the weekend. Lilly, Alina's cavalier King Charles spaniel, got along great with Andy, they played all weekend and Andy came back exhausted. She has been sleeping all day. Thank you Alina for an awesome experience, we will definitely recommend you to our friends.

I have a large fenced-in yard, which gives your dog ample space to run and play. We have a toddler, so we are constantly watching how he approaches dogs (he loves them!). We also have a cavalier King Charles spaniel who loves to play with other dogs. If we think our dog and guest dog need a break from each other, we can easily separate the two.
Home
Information Alina L. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences! We love all dogs. However, because we have a toddler and a small dog, I need to know the following: 1. Is your dog’s vaccines up to date? Please send a copy of the most up-to-date vaccine history. 2. Do they get along with small children and small dogs? 3. Are they crate trained? Although this isn’t a requirement for a stay with us, we prefer having a crate available. 4. Potty-trained dogs only.
A typical day
Weather permitting, we like to play fetch with the dogs in the fenced-in yard. We can take walks around the neighborhood as well. If you’re comfortable with me taking your dog in the car, I can take them to a nearby school which has a fenced in playground (only if other children are not using it).

Availability
My husband works from home and my hours vary each week, which means someone is always home to watch the pups. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods of time.
