Pet care experience
Choosing someone to care for beloved furry friends can be a daunting task—and this is why I’m always honored to care for your pets like I would my own. After working for rover for several years, and with hundreds of pet clients, I’ve gained a wide understanding of the various needs of both owners and pets. The pets I’ve cared for have ranged from chickens, to horses, to rabbits, to puppies, and cats, tiny ones, the biggest ones, the fearful, the calm and sweet, and the playful! One of the best parts of my job is creating rapport with such friendly and open creatures. I remember each pet I care for, and love to watch puppies become incredible adult friends for their owners. 🙂 I cater specifically to your pets needs—feeding times, schedules, and medications (I even have experience giving insulin shots). Prior to beginning on Rover I volunteered at an animal shelter for three years. This labor of love included walking dogs, caring for them, and assisting in pet adoptions. During that time I gained experience handling temperaments of all types, and learned about the unspoken body language that dogs communicate with. Assisting in the adoption process also gave me a wide understanding of the love involved when taking in a pet, and so I am always honored when clients choose to work with me! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to modify, according to the owner’s and pet’s needs. Trust is of utmost importance—I treat others’ spaces, pets, and belongings with the care and respect that I would hope my space is given should I be in the opposite position. Trust and safety are number one! I am honored to be given the trust and vulnerability of someone allowing me into their home. I’d love to meet you and your beloved pets!
Reviews
Alexis was amazing and our pups loved her! Highly recommend hiring her!
Alexis exceeded all expectations, again. We have two strong-willed dogs and Alexis was able to make them feel comfortable enough to treat her like a member of the family. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation seeing Alexis's daily updates showing the dogs happy and healthy.
Alexis was wonderful and took great care of Chip while I was away! Everything was tidy and in order when I returned. Chip would love for Alexis to stay with him anytime!
Alexis is a true angel. I was sooooo nervous leaving my pups, I’ve never left them with someone I didn’t know before. She was truly amazing with them, her energy is so calming my pups felt very relaxed. They were so happy to spend time with her! I came home and my house was spotless and very sleepy pups from their exercise. Adore her!!

Safety, trust & environment
I care for each pet very specifically. I like to know about their regular routines, what their personalitie’s are like, how they get along with other animals in the neighborhood etc. The safety of your pets is very important to me! Some pets who love to eat things they shouldn't need a bit of a closer watch and some pets are very easy going and like to mostly sleep! So I take each pet on a case by case basis to make sure they've got the best care they can get and work with you to hear about what they love and how they can best be cared for. I don't take pets into my space, but I have done many house sittings, and treat your space like I would my own.
Information Alexis G. would like to know about your pet
Any medications, medical history or specific needs they have in regards to health issues. Uncomfortability in the vicinity of other dogs while on walks, and if they are prone to chasing animals (like squirrels) are all great things to know in advance.
A typical day
Every pet’s needs (physically and mentally) vary based on breed, age, and medical history. So I cater to specific pets needs—that can mean longer walks, more fetch time, or no walking at all and only affection/quality time. They all, however, get the same amount of love!

Availability
My schedule is pretty flexible, I can work from home. I also go over you expectations with you, as well as how long a specific pet can be left alone. That way I am aware of their needs and can adapt a schedule to that. 🙂
