Patient, Caring Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
I have always had dogs growing up. When I was younger we did have a cat. I was a junior handler and dog trainer for my aunt who bred French Bulldogs for AKC shows. I practiced a little obedience/agility training during the same time. While in this setting I practiced with many different dog breeds and am comfortable handling any size dog. I helped a friend with her dog boarding company for a while and I encountered many different dogs here as well and not all as well trained. I absolutely love all animals I encounter. I love helping friends and family out with their animals while they are away. During college and high school, I would house sit/dog sit for friends. I have been around animals my entire life and I feel comfortable dealing with any situation thrown at me, whether it be a dog that isn't very good on a leash yet or a nervous animal who just needs a patient person to help take care of them while their family isn't there. My family currently has the goofiest labradoodle and Airedale terrier! We have two sweet pups, Gizmo, a poodle terrier, and Mazzy, a french bulldog. I am allergic to cats so while I'm happy to do drop ins and such with cats staying overnight with cats can be very difficult for me so I prefer to not sleep in homes that have cats. I am happy to wake up early and visit frequently if you have cats and dogs that way I can make sure every member of the family stays happy. Can't wait to meet your pups! I will be doing walks with my baby Mira either on my back in a carrier or in a stroller. If your pup isn't kid friendly I won't be a great fit, but I will keep my daughter separate just to keep pups comfortable and my daughter safe. Aleksandra Dooley (Sasha)
Reviews
Great experience. She sent us pictures multiple Times a day. Left house is great condition.
Aleksandra D. was prompt, caring and kept us up on exactly what our dog was doing. Highly recommend.
Provided a great stay for Mojo! She spent lots of time outside with him and on walks and gave him plenty of love. Would recommend her

My own home is not ideal as I already have two pups and a young baby at home, so I will not be able to accept any more pets into my home.

Information Aleksandra D. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds but are your pups good with small dogs? If I'm just taking your pups for a walk or dropping in to take care of them it's easy! I won't bring my pups along. Is your pup reactive in any way? If your pup isn't calm around babies/kids I won't be a good fit as my daughter will either be in a carrier on my back or in a stroller I'll be pushing with me.
A typical day
Many walks. Fetch. I'm up to go on hikes with your pups if that's something you would like them to do, and the same goes for the dog park if that is something you are comfortable with! Tug of war or any other fun things your pup likes to do. I can help with practicing any commands they know. Love walking Arastradero, but my pups end up hopping in their stroller part way through walks.

I am a stay at home mom, so I care for my baby and pups all day. My own pups can't walk more than a block comfortably.
