Because I currently work part-time online with a flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to dedicate focused, unrushed time to caring for cats—whether that means stopping by for a quick check-in, spending time with a pet who needs extra company, or maintaining feeding and medication routines throughout the day. My remote work allows me to be dependable and responsive, and I genuinely enjoy the balance of quiet computer time and meaningful, hands-on interaction with animals.

About Aleksandra B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment that matches the pet’s usual routine. I give each animal my full attention—making sure they’re fed on time, comfortable, and getting the interaction they need, whether that’s quiet companionship, playtime, or a nice brushing session. I’m also respectful of the client’s space, keeping everything clean and organized as if it were my own. At my apartment, I can provide a peaceful, safe space for pets who are used to a quieter environment. I live next to several parks and love going for walks, so dogs staying with me get plenty of fresh air, movement, and enrichment. I also enjoy building trust with each pet, whether that means helping a cat settle into a cozy nap spot or giving a dog a structured walk that meets their energy level.

Information Aleksandra B. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know as much as possible about your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best care possible. This includes: Feeding schedule and dietary restrictions Any medications and how they should be administered Behavior quirks (e.g. fears, reactivity, or habits) Energy level and play preferences How they typically respond to strangers or other animals Any household rules you'd like me to follow (e.g. furniture boundaries, leash handling, etc.) The more I know ahead of time, the smoother and more comfortable the experience will be for both your pet and you!
A typical day
I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level to make sure they feel happy, safe, and engaged while in my care. For dogs, that might mean long walks in nearby parks, gentle jogs, or games like fetch, tug, or hide-and-seek with treats. I also enjoy working on basic training and enrichment games that keep their minds active. For cats, I focus on interactive play with toys like feather wands or laser pointers, cozy cuddle time (if they’re into that!), and creating little enrichment moments like window-watching or puzzle feeders. My goal is always to make pets feel relaxed, entertained, and loved while their people are away.

Pet care experience
I have hands-on experience caring for pets in their homes, with a focus on creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment. I’ve provided care for dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels—including puppies with lots of play needs and senior pets requiring extra patience and attention. I'm comfortable administering medications, sticking to detailed routines, and building trust with shy or sensitive animals. What sets me apart is my observant, gentle approach and my ability to truly connect with each animal’s personality. I’ve also worked in a dog daycare setting, which taught me how to manage group dynamics, recognize early signs of stress or tension, and support dogs through social play. On top of that, I’m a pet photographer, so I’m used to reading body language and creating positive, low-stress interactions—even with animals who are nervous around new people. Whether I’m popping in for a quick visit or staying overnight, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with respect, patience, and a lot of love.

Reviews
Aleksandra is a wonderful, responsible sitter. She is responsive to all my chats and sends picture updates. I truly trust my dog in her care.
Aleksandra was so great to Tucker! She sent lots of pictures and gave updates which always helps when being away from pups. She did a great job communicating. She gave Tucker all the love while I was gone.
Aleksandra took wonderful care of Rocco. She was great to work with and sent us multiple photos during our trip. I highly recommend her and hope to work with her again.
Alessandra kept me updated and sent me amazing photos of Winnie!
