Loving Dog Companion

Pet care experience

Hi! I currently volunteer at Animal Haven, a shelter for dogs and cats in NYC. I have cared for a dog for the past 20 years, and would love to care for any type of dog. I am more than happy to give them as much or as little exercise as they want. I had a golden retriever mixed with chow chow for 14 years, who sadly passed away last summer. My family now owns a new dog, a chocolate lab, who is 5 years old.

Maya had another great day hanging with Alexa. Maya loves snuggling up with Alexa and I know she’s in good hands.

Alexa was amazing taking care of Oakley. She jumped in last minute and took him around town like he was her own dog. 10/10 will ask for her help again and would recommend her to anyone!

Alexa was an awesome sitter for Albert! She made sure to tire him out and keep him entertained, and sent lots of cute pics and videos throughout the day. Albert was so happy when I picked him up, and clearly had a great time. Highly recommend booking with Alexa!

Maya had a great weekend with Alexa! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics and updates. Alexa was attentive to all of Mayas special needs and made our anxious girl feel right at home. I look forward to boarding with Alexa again soon.
