Dogs are just little, fluffy humans

Pet care experience

I am very patient with any kind of dog. I love to go on walks, playing and cuddling with them. I am also very understandable with dogs that may have disabilities because my dog has a disability also.I have been caring for my dog for 10 years, we've been through good and bad times. She has an autoimmune disease that attacked her joints and cannot walk anymore. She is mostly crawling and can't really take care of herself (going to the bathroom on her own). Since then, I learned to give her any attention that she needs and to read her body language. I'm currently going to Michigan State University, which has a very good vet program. I am not going to become a vet, but I did take classes that were focusing on management of companion animals.

Alina provided a great place for my pup to take a little vacation (while I took a little vacation)! She provided me with photos and updates periodically and was very accommodating when there was a short notice change in pick-up time due to a flight delay. Hopefully we'll have another opportunity for Monty to stay with Alina!

Alina was wonderful! It was her first time to my home and she made sure the dogs were taken care of properly. I could tell from the photos she sent that they are happy.

This girl is the most caring to dogs of anyone I have ever known. She is very patient even with the most timid of dogs, giving them a chance to warm up to her.

Information Alina M. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know what kind of breed they are. I would prefer hypoallergenic dogs, but the ones that shed are also cute and okay with me. I'd also want to know if they are socialized when going for a walk or potty trained.

A typical day

I have a park right behind my house and the walk is very enjoyable and relaxing. I can also run your dog there or play fetch.
