About: Hello, my name is Alex! Animals have always been an interest of mine (fun fact: my favorite animal is the grizzly bear) and I love caring for them! I've been taking care of my family dogs for the last 5 years and recently adopted my kitty a little over a year ago. Outside of that, I volunteer at my local shelter and have been hired to walk dogs by neighbors as well as dog/ house sit from time to time. I may be new to Rover but I am not new to being dependable and responsible! I am currently a Junior in college and do not work a job during the academic year. My main constraint is classes when school is in session, but other than that I will work diligently to fit into whatever schedule is needed of me! I know how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your pet. This is why I do my absolute best to make sure each fur baby is treated with the same love and care that I would want for my own. My goal is to give them - and you - the absolute best experience possible.
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals—including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. I’m pretty flexible and can easily fit pet care into my daily schedule. Whether it’s walks, feedings, or just some quality cuddle time, I make sure your pets get the attention they deserve without any hassle on your end! I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!
About: My family and friends have trusted me with their fur babies for over 20 years. I have medical experience and have had a dog that developed diabetes at 10 years old, that I cared for. I will care for your senior pup or youngster! I have owned small and large dogs, and cats as well. I am currently semi- retired and doing online classes. I am home every day I need to be, to care for your baby as if they are home with you. I have 2 dogs that are 1 & 3 that love to run and play. I also have the ability to crate a medium and large dog as well, if that is your preference. I strive to keep as close to your normal routine as possible, but also want your pup to be on "vacation" as well!
