Dog dad ready to meet you an yours!

Pet care experience

I am long time dog rescuer and am ready to meet your fur baby! I have rescued and raised three wonderful loving large breed dogs, ranging from 55 to 115 Ibs. I have spent years working for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. I am very comfortable and concerned with animals' well being and would love to help nurture and care for your animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, snakes, insects, and even ringtail cats as you can see in my picture. I am very well versed at bonding with animals, understanding and fulfilling their needs. I live with my wife in colonial heights and don't have children. My dog, Ancho lives with us. This leaves my schedule flexible to be more available for you. Please message me with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby soon!

Alec, or Uncle Alec if you ask my dog, has become a part of Hannah’s pack. He’s super dependable, takes great care her, and communicates timely.

Alec has been so wonderful with my young corgi, Jace. I really appreciate how Alec is willing to work on exerciseing Jace which assists in my heavy one year old puppy to loose weight.

I have known Alec for many years and he has proven himself time and time again to be a a responsible and compassionate dog caregiver. I've trusted him to watch my dog many times. He always puts my pups happiness and wellbeing first and keeps a balance of fun, firm and fair! I'd highly recommend him to take care of anyones fury friend!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard that has a lot of space for your dog to run and play. There are lots of toys and balls and such that I keep around for my dog Ancho and his regular play friends. While he doesn’t eat them, some of his friends try to so I have to keep a close eye on them. There’s always fresh water available, inside and out. Dog beds and myself and Ancho to play with. I make sure there are plenty of potty breaks but also make sure that when its too hot to limit time outside.

Information Alec L. would like to know about your pet

While Ancho is great with dogs of all sizes, I would prefer a larger breed dog to come hang out. As im a homeowner, I can accommodate a larger breed which not all sitters can. So, they will be given preference.

A typical day

There is a big park right across the street that I like to walk around and we like to play inside and out. The neighborhood is the perfect place to walk and sniff gardens and talk to neighbors.
