Huge Fence Yard. Fulltime Stay home

Pet care experience

Been around dogs my entire life. I love dogs and like to take care of different sizes and breeds. Growing up, we had a German Shepherd for 15 years. Shortly after getting my engineering degree, I had a Weimaraner for about 8 years. I don't have any pets now. I am flexible and love to help when last-minute things come up in everyday life. I have two beautiful girls 19 and 9 and they love dogs as well. I live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood in Waukee. I have a large fenced-in yard that provides even large dogs the freedom to run. We have tons of dog toys. In the basement, we have a kennel made with a 24x7 camera view from anywhere in the world. I work from home so I don't normally kennel them and let them run around the house freely. I like to take them for walks 4-5 times a day. It's relaxing. I will treat your dog like family so you can have a stress-free and relaxing getaway. I have a natural ability to train any dog while they are staying with me. ** I take a lot of pictures and videos of your dog and will send them to you so you don't miss them. ** Check out my reviews to see what other pet owners say about me. ** I work from home so I am always playing or watching your pets. I'm currently working from home full time. I can easily give every 2 hr potty breaks. Sometimes I have to leave the house for chores but only for 2-3 hrs. I have a fenced backyard and if needed I can easily crate your dogs. I also have a crate made up in the basement with cameras.

Our pups love as staying at Alok's! They always are excited to be dropped off and have a great time while they're there. Alok sends us regular updates and photos on how they're doing. Thanks for watching our pups!

Alok is an amazing sitter for our sensitive beagle who needs lotsa love and confidence building. He goes out of his way to accommodate and his experience with dogs makes him a great sitter. Top notch!

I’ve lost track how many repeat visits our dog has had with Alok. He is wonderful, caring, very attentive and a great communicator. Don’t hesitate to use Alok for your dog sitting needs. He is the best!
