Pawsome Care for Furry Friends!
Pet care experience
I hold a deep affection for dogs, and at present, I am fortunate to have two delightful mini Dachshunds as my own companions. These furry friends of mine have reached their senior years, and as a result, they spend most of their time dozing, slumbering approximately 23 hours a day. As someone with an immense passion for canine well-being, I am always enthusiastic about caring for your beloved pets and ensuring they receive the utmost attention. My services include house sitting, dog walking, and overnight stays for dogs.
Reviews
Our first time leaving with Alessandra. She treated our dog like her own, and checked in with pictures daily.
Alessandra did a great job taking care of our 8 mo old active puppy. She took him for walks and played with him. She sent pictures every morning and evening and let us know how he was doing. We’re very happy with our first rover experience!

About Alessandra M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I approach all dogs with equal care and respect, prioritizing their well-being. Should the owner have any specific requests, I strive to surpass expectations and accommodate those needs to the best of my ability. Currently, my household consists of my mother, two dogs, and myself. However, in the event that your dog requires a separate space due to discomfort or aggression towards other pets, I do have an additional room available to ensure their comfort and safety.

Information Alessandra M. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a dog, it is crucial to gather certain information in advance to ensure their well-being and provide appropriate care. First and foremost, understanding the dog's medical history, including any allergies, ongoing medical conditions, or medications they may require, is essential. This enables me to address their specific health needs and respond appropriately in case of emergencies. Additionally, knowing the dog's temperament, behavior around other animals and people, and any history of aggression or fearfulness helps me tailor my approach and ensure a safe environment. Information about their daily routine, dietary preferences, exercise requirements, and any specific training commands or cues they respond to can greatly contribute to their overall comfort and happiness. Finally, owner's preferred method of communication ensures open lines of communication and prompt access to professional advice if needed. By obtaining these vital details beforehand, I can provide comprehensive and personalized care for the dog in a way that aligns with their unique needs and characteristics.
A typical day
When caring for the dogs, I believe in engaging them in a variety of enjoyable activities to keep them entertained and fulfilled. These may include energetic play sessions with their favorite toys, interactive games such as fetch or hide-and-seek, or even puzzle toys to stimulate their mental abilities. If the dogs enjoy socializing with other canines, I may arrange playdates at a local dog park, ensuring a safe and supervised environment. During walks, I love exploring nature trails or nearby parks, providing an opportunity for the dogs to experience new sights and scents while getting their exercise. However, I always take into account the preferences and needs of the dogs, as some may prefer calm strolls around the neighborhood or have limitations due to age or health. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a balance of physical exercise, mental stimulation, and joyful experiences tailored to the unique personalities and capabilities of the dogs in my care.
