Dog lover just doin’ her job

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alina, I am 24 years old and a UC Davis graduate. My first job was as a dog groomer at the award winning Dirty Dogs LLC. Dog Spa & Boutique. I have 13 months experience as a professional dog grooming assistant, so if you need your pup cleaned up i'm your gal. I have experience in trimming nails, washing, brushing and am certified in general dog safety. I also have 10+ years experience dog sitting in my past. I’m a dog owner as of 2020 to a small rescue pup named Luna. She is a terrier mix who is friendly and gets along well with other small to medium sized pups. I've always found myself to be a dog person and have a genuine compassion for the animals. Your pupper is always in good hands with me and we will have lots of fun together!!

Alina dog sat our 11 pound crazy terrier puppy for two days this week. She is so amazing, patient, calm, sweet. She also is a trained groomer and gave him a great bath (he is so soft and fluffy) and trimmed his nails. When I came to pick him up he tried to run back in to her place each day! We will definitely use her services again.

Alina was amazing. She took our pup last second and sent pictures throughout the day. She was very friendly and responsive, I will definitely seek her out in the future !!

Alina was SUPER helpful and took fantastic care of our dog, Waffles. Alina took Waffles on walks, played with him, made sure he was safe, and sent us pics of him during the day. We couldn’t have been happier, and look forward to having Alina care for Waffles again soon.

Youmi had a great time with Alina! She is very friendly and helpful. We had a little meet and greet first before sending Youmi directly to board and it all went perfectly. Alina sent me pictures and feedbacks during Youmi’s stay and I can feel that Youmi really enjoyed the time with her. Will definitely choose Alina again next time!

Information Alina R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the breed of your dog before caring for it, just out of general curiosity. I have no preference, all dog breeds are awesome. I would also like to know any specific health needs and if your dog has any triggers/anxiety that I should be aware of e.g. if they are reactive to other dogs or public places.

A typical day

I plan on taking pups to quality parks in the area in order to make sure they get a healthy amount of exercise. I love spending time with pups and giving them constant care and attention. Please feel free to bring their favorite toys and treats to help me make dogs feel more at home!
