Alessandra can care for
Availability
I’m a student, so I have plenty of time during the summer months and during the holidays. Sitting and drop-ins work fine with my own cats' schedules as I have family they hang out with and feed while I’m gone. My schedule is flexible and open!

About Alessandra L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I listen to owners as they know their pet best. Willing to follow even the most hyper-specific directions to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe.
Information Alessandra L. would like to know about your pet
I'm pretty open to all dog breeds for walking, drop-ins, and house-sitting. Please be honest about any behavioral issues I should know about before hand.
A typical day
I like going on walks and exploring nearby parks. I enjoy reinforcing any tricks dogs know by practicing them with them. I've also done a lot of redirection work with dogs who are particularly barky or anxious. If there are toys or a yard to play in, that’s always fun. For cats, if they have toys, I love to play with them and give them lots of pets!

Pet care experience
I grew up with both Cats and Dogs and have experience as a pet owner, having 2 cats of my own. I also have a lot of experience as a sitter/boarder and professional dog walking! I’m comfortable administering medicine and dealing with aging pets' needs. I have some experience with puppies and kittens as well. I have worked with high-anxiety animals and am not afraid to work with them in the ways they need. I have equal experience with cats and dogs and love them both! I also love and can easily handle multi-cat/multi-dog households as well as mixed cat/dog households. House Sitting, Dog Walking, and Drop-Ins: I have a lot of experience with house sitting and drop-ins, so no need to worry. I am very trustworthy and dependable! I’m good at following even the most specific directions. I’ve seen it all :) I know many beautiful walking routes in the area. There is also a dog park near my house. I took a break from Rover for a while, but I’ve continued to pet sit and dog walk the entire time, just not on here. I can provide more references if needed. The only time I have had to cancel a booking was due to an emergency with my own cat, which required an immediate vet visit. The owner was very understanding. I have two cats that are comfortable around dogs for boarding. Let me know if you have any questions.
Reviews

Helpful and accommodating, helped me out last minute and had great communication.
Alessandra was great! We were grateful that she was available relatively last minute to do a meet & greet and walked our dobie/lab mix over the weekend. She had no problem with him being reactive to other dogs and we appreciated photos & updates.
Alessandra L. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.

Alessandra was communicative, attentive and responsible. I appreciate her care toward my cat!
