Highlights
Pet care experience
Building Bonds, One Paw at a Time
In the past 15 years I have cared for dogs from 7 week old puppies to 16 year old seniors. I've handled training needs of puppies and medication and palliative care for seniors. My experience is primarily with dogs but I've had many opportunities to care for cats.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I really enjoy working with animals as individuals and making myself a safe and trusted person for them. I like to bring a bag of novel dog or cat toys to help us break the ice and begin forming our relationship. I am very aware of the need for doors and gates to be closed and locked to keep your pets safe. I have developed a questionnaire we can go over at our first meeting such that I can be aware of any particular safety hazards in or near your home. We would also discuss any challenges or medications your pet requires.
Ratings and reviews
Alec did an amazing job with my cats over a long vacation. They are happy and hale and it was so nice not to have to worry the whole trip. Many thanks!
This is the second time Alec has taken care of my cats. All 3 of my cats love Alec, there's no stress vomiting or overeating issues whenever Alec sits them. I recommend Alec to anyone in the area ❤️
Took great care of my 3 cats and will book again.
Alex did a great job caring for out two pets (and kept the house in order as well). Would book again.
We always have peace of mind knowing Alec is staying with our pups when we travel.
It was so nice to have Alec stay with our dogs while we were out of town. Peace of mind in knowing they are in good hands!

Schedule
I have been pet sitting for more than half of my life. I have decided to attend graduate school and I will have a hybrid schedule allowing me vast flexibility in my weekday schedule for drop ins and dog walks. Drop in visits would include letting them out to relieve themselves and a minimun of 30 minutes for attention and play. When I am hired for dog walking we would need to discuss your dog's specific needs and abiility. I will also be available for overnight pet/house sitting for weekends or vacations. While pet sitting we can negotiate walking or other activities in addition to feeding and medication administration. I really look forward to meeting your pets and you and having fun building a relationship with your furry friends.
