Availability

I am often home, and am able to easily adapt my routine to whatever dog I am currently caring for. This is made easier because I enjoy taking care of dogs anyway. One time, a dog had trouble sleeping because he was missing his owners. So I slept with him on the floor for several days until he adjusted.

Safety, trust & environment

I am observant to dogs and their needs, not just physically, but emotionally too. I like to play with them, including games like fetch and chase, and all the classics. I am able to take dogs for walks in my neighborhood, which again is not a problem because I enjoy taking walks anyway. I do my best to keep the floors free from anything that a dog cannot eat, and will also constantly supervise the dog when they are in the backyard.

Dogs are my best friends!

Pet care experience

My friends and family know me as the Dog Lover. I easily make friends with dogs, and have taken care of many dogs, from puppies to seniors, large to small. I'm very attentive to dogs, and do my best to care for their needs. This is easier for me because (as I've been told) I seem to speak their language. I can't wait to meet your dog and promise to treat them as my best friend.

Thank you for taking care of Elsa. She appears to be having a good time with Alec in the photos he sent. We felt she was safe and taken care of as if she was at home with us. We would bring Elsa back when the need arises. Thank you

Alec was great! He kept us updated and sent pictures throughout the week! I would definitely recommend Alec. The one on one care with our dog was much appreciated!

Alec did a great job watching my little guy. He was very accommodating on the pick up time and Koji seemed to enjoy himself.

Alec was fantastic! It had been over a year since my Gabby was with a sitter. I think she was a little nervous at first but was provided comfort and love. Thank you so much Alec for taking care of my baby!
