About: Hi there! My name is Alexa, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—literally! I grew up in a home where we had 8+ dogs at any given time because my grandmother bred and showed dogs professionally. From a young age, I learned how to handle, groom, train, and care for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate, a calm and patient companion, or someone who understands special needs or routines, I’ve got the experience and love to give. I treat every animal like family and believe that reliable, attentive care is the least our pets deserve when we’re away. I'll send daily photos and updates to give you peace of mind and keep you connected with your pet while you're away. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally. Since I’m currently unemployed and have an open schedule, I’m able to fully dedicate my time and energy to caring for pets. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own—with patience, love, and close attention to their unique needs. I always prioritize their safety and comfort, taking the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special instructions. I go above and beyond to make sure they feel secure and cared for, whether that means extra playtime, keeping a close eye on their behavior, or creating a calm, familiar environment. I believe every pet deserves high-quality, personalized care, and I’m fully committed to providing just that.

I understand how important it is to leave your pet in good hands (I have 2 kitties myself), and I’m here to give you peace of mind while giving your cat the best care possible. Please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions. I’ve worked from home for the past 4 years so I have a lot of flexibility to take care of your pet. With a one-day notice, I’m available to cater to your kitty’s needs for drop-in visits. Whether that’s playing with them, refreshing the litter box, feeding them their wet/dry food, administering medication, or giving them snuggles, I’m available to set aside time throughout my day to do so. While caring for your pet, I will provide daily updates and pictures to ensure peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own. If I’m caring for your pet, I ensure they feel comfortable and follow their normal routines for feeding and playtime.

Garrison Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mia was amazing at taking care of my cat while I was away for a few days. She sent several photos and videos with each visit which helped ease my anxiety. Also loved how detailed she was in her messages about their time spent together and how my cat was doing. She even scheduled a call before booking to write down any special needs or behaviors to look out for. I’d 100% rebook with her in the future!
Cortney is very responsive and easy to work with. She accommodated a couple of schedule changes with no concerns. I am very happy with the care she provided to our two cats while we were away for a week. I will definitely book Cortney for future pet sitting needs.
Dan cared for my 14 year old sweet girl while I was out of town. He played fetch with her, provided walks and affection. He fed her and made sure her water was full. I cannot say enough about the enrichment he provided for her and the sense of security and comfort it gave me while out of town for 3 days! I’m pretty sure Dan has a special place in his heart for older pups 💖 it is a blessing to have him watching over her !
Danielle was amazing with my old teacup chihuahua. He had a little bit of anxiety after about the 4th day gone and she really did everything she could to keep him calm and comfortable. She is a great communicator and took lots of pics per her visit. I came home to a happy little dog. Aside from the dog, she noticed my ac was not working properly on the last day. I was able to get my ac guy out and have everything working before I got home.
Terra was amazing with our cat! She followed all the instructions perfectly, shared great updates after each visit, and clearly gave him lots of love and attention. He seemed super comfortable and happy the whole time, and we really appreciated the photos, thoughtful notes, and playtime. We’d absolutely book with her again!
