Lifelong dog lover&your pet sitter

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 12 years old. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their pets. I train my dog with positive reinforcement based training. I don’t believe in yelling or punishing and I carry that mindset over to the pets I care for as well. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities.

My wife and I couldn't have been more pleased with Alvina's care for our little girl Mia. From the moment we met her, Alvina exuded competence, putting our parental worries at ease. Throughout our time away, Alvina remained in communication, providing updates and reassurances that Mia was in good hands. We felt comfortable entrusting Mia to Alvina's care, knowing she was in good hands. We highly recommend Alvina to any dog parent seeking a caring and dependable doggie sitter.

Absolutely nerve wracking to have to leave and not be able to take your pets (family) with you but I am so happy I chose Alvina to care for my best friend. She was communicative and attentive and I think my dog is actually missing her a bit. Totally recommend her, she is super sweet and made me feel at ease during this time away from my boy.

Alvina has helped us out twice now! She is very responsive and keeps us updated on how things are going with our dogs. We had a bit of anxiety about going away and leaving our dogs for 9 nights, but we quickly felt comfortable working with Alvina. We will definitely use Alvina again.

I know how incredibly important pets are and how nerve wrecking it can be to leave them behind. So I will do everything in my power to make sure they are cared for with the utmost attentive care in the comfort of their own home. I am happy to administer medication or make any other accommodations needed to make sure your best friends have a love filled stay while you’re out of town.

Information Alvina L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your pets dietary and medication needs so they are the most comfortable. Also please let me know their triggers and difficult behaviors if they have any. I look forward to giving your pet the most comfortable and loving experience.

A typical day

I am a very active person. I love taking dogs on walks and adventures in the park. I would play fetch with them and allow them the opportunity to blow off their steam.
