About: I’ve previously worked for a doggie daycare/boarding facility. I was in charge of giving medications, daily feeding, walking, and grouped times when we would take all dog out for bathroom breaks. I also would stay outside with daycare groups for 2+ hours twice daily. I currently work as a barista so I’m free around 5:45pm-6pm after work till about 10pm tuesday-saturday. Sundays and Mondays are primarily my days off so I’m free to provide services. I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats that I care for. They all get fed at the same time and I walk my own dog at least once daily with occasional trips to the dog park. They all sleep with me in my bedroom every night as well.

“I highly recommend Alaina for overnight, in-home pet-sitting. She stayed in my home to watch my adult reactive dog for three days. I received consistent, proactive updates throughout her stay on how my dog was doing and what he was up to without me needing to ask. She even let me know when he had positive experiences with triggers. My dog has a strict routine because of his behavioral problems, and she kept him on his routine very closely and made sure to let me know ahead of time if/when her schedule conflicted with accommodating his normal routine. Upon my return, it is clear that she took good care of my home and space as well as my dog. He has been his normal self ever since I returned from my trip, which was a huge concern for me. I definitely trust that Alaina can provide quality care for reactive and nervous dogs and would recommend her services to any potential clients with such dogs and related concerns.”


About: I've taken care of my own pets and all of my friends and family pets. I've had almost everything from chinchillas, to guinea pigs, to leopard geckos, to a bearded dragon and of course cats and dogs! I dedicate my time to my pet care and dog training so outside of running errands and my dog training appointments, my time is pretty open! I have experience with animal handling from my various jobs involving animals such as being a dog groomer and dog trainer. I can even handle dogs who don't get along and need to be crated and rotated.

About: I’ve had experience with rescue animals in my home since my childhood. I began working as a pet sitter and dog walker (babysitter as well!) at 14, which has always been my favorite job! I was able to get a job as a kennel assistant in a veterinary clinic at 16 and worked my way up to a veterinary assistant position. I have dealt with administering medication and other veterinary procedures, and dealing with more special care required animals. I’m a college student taking online and in person courses through the local community college, so I have a pretty open schedule. Working a traditional job in college can be quite stressful, so I’m giving this a try! I have been working in other people’s homes for several years babysitting and pet sitting. I’m happy to clean dishes, take out trash, carry in mail and packages, and any other simple tasks. I always try my best to clean after myself and the fur babies each visit!

“Victoria is a repeat sitter for us this time however she watched all three of our dogs. They are finicky when interacting with each other and she did everything to make it a smooth weekend for them. I appreciate all the updates, care and compassion she gives the dogs.”


About: Many members of my family have had dogs, cats, and various other types of pets for my entire life. In my own home, my parents began giving me pet care tasks to help me practice caring for animals when I was pretty young. These skills have developed significantly over the years. I am a loving and caring person and have always had a playful side. This being said, I am still able to handle stressful situations with a firm but compassionate hand. This gives me a distinct advantage when it comes to pet care. Currently I work two jobs, one full-time and one part-time. The full time job have regular hours M-F, 8am to 4pm. I would be able to do drop in visits both before work starts and after it ends. I usually work my part time job on weekends in the late morning- early afternoon. They are very flexible and as long as I get enough notice, I will be able to schedule visits then as well. I feed my cat on a regular schedule so I am able to do the same with your pet. I am also able and willing to play, bathe, or just hang out with your pets. Unfortunately I would not be able to have your pets in my apartment, as my complex does not allow unauthorized animals but I am more than willing to come to you!

About: I’ve had animals most of my adult life. I’ve just lost my cat and dog this year and need the fulfillment that a pet can give you! Unconditional love and affection! I work part time 15 hours a week and am otherwise wide open with time. I’m also available for walks and check in’s with dogs and cats. I have a fairly large back yard and have no other animals to contend with. I am trust worthy, honest and loving to all animals I currently work 5 hours 3x a week and am otherwise home. My schedule is flexible. My husband is also available to help If needed. I have over 1/2 acre and would walk your dogs 3x a day or more if needed. I have a dog park and park close by.

About: Drawing on over 15 years of pet care expertise, I offer professional pet sitting and walking services. As an accomplished animal trainer and former zookeeper, I bring a unique skill set to ensure your pets receive the best care. Beyond professional experience, my commitment is personal – with two senior rescue dogs, one with special needs, I understand the importance of compassionate and tailored care for your furry family members. I maintain a flexible schedule, thanks to my work-from-home position and ongoing pursuit of a master's degree. This adaptability allows me to provide personalized and attentive care for your pets, ensuring they receive the time and attention they deserve. While we have a small fenced-in yard, our home is characterized by a commitment to regular walks. Even the simplest strolls are cherished moments for your pets, allowing them to indulge in the joy of exploring scents and stretching their legs. Rest assured, your furry companions will experience both the security of our yard and the excitement of outdoor adventures.
