About: My pet care journey began at just 11 years old, when my sister and I started raising dairy goats on our parents' farm. It soon became clear that animal sitting was a huge need, especially in the farming community. Eventually, I began accepting jobs, and have since gained experience with both drop-in visits and overnight stays. Whether you have a Teacup Poodle or a Great Pyrenees, I'm committed to providing the best possible care for your animal friend. Oh, and I can even water the plants, too! I work part-time with a fairly flexible schedule, so I'm able to find plenty of time to care for your furry friends, especially if you're looking for weekend care. How much time I spend directly with your pets depends on their specific needs, and I'm always happy to provide enrichment like walking and tossing their favorite frisbee. I provide care in my clients' homes because I have animals as well. I can do overnight pet sitting as well as dog walking. I'm also open to long-term stays if you're looking to take a more lengthy vacation.

“Alexandra was very communicative and stayed with our boy during the fireworks on the 4th of July. Highly recommend”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds! From golden doodle puppies to Labrador seniors I’ve cared for them! I had a childhood dog that I spent ever day with for 14 years that just recently passed but my mom and I cared for her every day. She had many dietary needs and help as she became older so I’m very familiar with those challenges! I’m also familiar with the challenges with many puppies as I used to puppy sit for an old friend in college who had a sweet baby with MANY needs (as most fur babies do:)). I love to meet new sweet animals every day and can’t wait to hopefully meet yours!!! I’m a recent college graduate currently in the job-search phase, so I’m very free any day of the week for animals! Weekdays are preferred, but weekends are totally doable with enough notice! I currently cannot house animals at my home due to owning a huge German shepherd who isn’t the best with new faces sadly. But, I’m more than available to meet you at your home and care for your pets as needed any time of day!

“Very sweet with our pup. House was in great shape when we got home. We will definitely book her again.”

About: What truly sets me apart is not just my love for dogs, but the hands-on experience I have caring for a wide range of breeds and personalities. I currently have three dogs of my own a sweet 8-year-old Chihuahua-Yorkie mix who is our spoiled little baby, a very energetic Shih Tzu who keeps me on my toes, and a gentle giant of a German Shepherd who’s just a big cuddly lovebug. Because of them, I have real-life experience managing everything from small, senior pups to large, high-energy breeds. I’m especially patient with hyper dogs I know how to keep them active, happy, and well-behaved.

You can feel confident that your pet will get the attention and care they deserve without any conflicts. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it by using leashes and taking pets on regular walks around my neighborhood or to nearby parks. I enjoy being active and love spending time outdoors with the dogs, giving them plenty of exercise and enrichment. My own dogs are very friendly and would love the extra company, which helps create a warm and welcoming environment for any visiting pets. I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for whether they’re staying in my home or I'm visiting them in theirs.
