Courtney is a great dog “person”! She met with me and my new puppy to get to know her to make sure it would be a good fit, and was very good with her and with flexibility on what options I needed for walking and feeding! She is also a great “people person”! She sent me photos and updates every day so I could keep track of what was going on while I was at work. Courtney’s the best and all two legged and four legged creatures are lucky to have her!! 😊

About: Hi! I’m Camille, and if there’s a dog at a party, that’s probably who I’m talking to. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal is different. Some pets want nonstop playtime, some want cuddles, and some prefer their space. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop in visit, or company while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Expect lots of updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a stress free owner, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💕 Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. As a server, I’m used to being active, managing my time efficiently, and staying attentive to the needs of others in a fast-paced environment. My work schedule gives me flexibility during certain parts of the day, allowing me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a natural fit for me. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I have cared for, fostered and rehomed many furry friends over the past 9 years. I have experience with kittens, puppies as well as adult dogs and cats. I give lots of pats, scratches and cuddles (if they are so inclined). I enjoy fetch, Lazer tag and long walks just as much as your fur baby does. I currently work part time and I create my own schedule. When I'm taking care of your family member they'll have my full undevided attention. I'm not currently available on the weekends. I respect your space. When i am visiting your home, you can relax knowing I'm going to provide the best care for your darling baby.

About: I’ve always been good with dogs. I watch the dogs for my family and friends. I can train if you would like, but I take very good care of the dogs and make sure that they have everything they need. I have just finished college. I am free most of the time and looking to help with any of your pets needs. My schedule will fit around the pet care. I take them for walks around the neighborhood and or to the dog park. I can put them in a crate if needed but most likely won’t be needed. They have space to roam around the house and if they are dog friendly, I have others dog that they can mingle with.

About: I've been taking care of dogs for a couple of months, including regularly dog sitting for my neighbor. I'm comfortable feeding, walking, and playing with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I'm reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it's daily check-ins or longer stays, I treat every dog like they're my own. I’m currently working a part time job that has me having many off days, so with that time I care for my dog way more. I created a stronger bond with my dog since I have much time. I cater to my clients pets in their home by giving them all of my attention and pretty much treat them like my own child.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes since I can remember. Dog poop, hairballs, slobber…not grossed out, will clean it all. We recently lost our 17-year-old chihuahua, so I have experience caring for a senior pet as well. I’m a freelance creative, working from home with a very flexible schedule. I can easily shift my day around to meet your pet care needs! I am a sucker for instructions and will follow them to a T. Your pet(s) will get my undivided attention, love, and care. And, with your permission, I love to take photos of your pets and share them with you to add a little bright spot to your day.

About: I've always loved animals and felt that I was adept a befriending and communicating with them. If one begs for my attention, 9 times out of 10, they got it. I've been blessed to raise a 2 labradoodles, one of which I've had since he was only a few months old. Handfuls that they are, I wouldn't trade them for anything. My dogs are mid sized, but I love all dogs, big and small. Admittedly, there was a time where I thought I lacked the charm for cats, but some friends educated me. I now have a broader understanding that they can be just as playful and cuddly as dogs, but typically more selective. Animals, like people, are all different with different personalities. I believe understanding that is essential in interacting with & raising them.

I highly recommend Alexys for your pet care needs! I’ve been working with her for about a month, and she has quickly become one of my most trusted, go-to sitters. She is incredibly professional, kind, and communicates effectively, which I truly appreciate given my busy schedule. Most importantly, she takes wonderful care of my dog; I can see how comfortable my pup is with her, and the frequent updates during bookings give me complete peace of mind. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!
