“Alex was amazing! I could not have asked for a better sitter for our trip!!! We have three dogs and all with various levels of “issues” Our smallest and oldest dog needs a lot of pets and love and wants to cuddle all the time. He was in love with her Our middle dog is very shy and doesn’t trust many people. She went on a hunger strike while we were gone. She handled it with ease and kept us updated throughout our trip. Our youngest is a VERY active and VERY big puppy. She can be a handful to say the least.... she was in love with Alex and was very relaxed the whole time we are gone”
