A little bit more about me is that I am a second year medical student who enjoys doing odd gigs on the side including taking care of pets! I have time to do drop-ins after school/on weekends and house sit (I will be at school for 4-8 hours a day) while you’re away.

Taking care of pets with love! 💕

Pet care experience

What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I genuinely care and love all animals and treat them with compassion. I talk with them throughout the day like the friends that they are and have a lot of experience caring for them! Because I don’t have pets of my own, you can be sure that yours will get all my love and attention 💕☺️

Alina did a great job dog sitting for Hatley over a long weekend. He seemed to really enjoy her company, was well cared for, and Alina left the place in great shape. Thanks, Alina!

Alina showed her interest and love of animals at an early age. When one of our rescue kitties accidently escaped Alina recruited some other neighborhood kids to help us find her. As a teenager she became a volunteer feeder providing water and food to stray cats in the community. Alina also spent time patiently and joyfully working to socialize cats and kittens in our foster program. Her gentle, compassionate way with animals is a tremendous asset as a pet caregiver in today's hectic world. Alina asks questions, follows up and pays attentions to the needs of the animals. Her genuine love of animals and dedication to them is second to none.

Alina kept our 10 and 12 week old kittens safe, fed, and happy. She listened to most of the instructions that we left for her and was always very kind when communicating. She gave us regular updates and left the house cleaner than when she got here.

Alina was an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of my dogs and treated them like they were her own. She was reliable, communicative, and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me complete peace of mind. I came home to happy, well cared for dogs, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Alina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!
