Safety, trust & environment

I can administer any medications if needed and crate if needed or wanted when I am not there. I can monitor your pets for any changes or needs, and let you know ASAP. For the comfort and safety of your pet please let me know beforehand if your fur baby is sensitive to anything, has any reactivities or animal aggression, or dislikes certain parts of them being pet. If needed/wanted during pet sitting, I can administer flea and tick and Heartworm prevention to your cat or dog, all I need is the date. For any medications, let me know the times and how often, and I will administer and keep record for you that will be available when you come home

Alex took wonderful care of our Gus! He sent numerous photos of their day together. He was in great hands and we felt safe leaving him. Thank you Alex!

Awesome pet sitter! Stayed overnight for a week with our large dog (great pyrenees) and 2 cats (one goes outside, one is indoor only). We came back to happy and healthy furbabies and home. He kept in good contact with us and we got daily pics of our furbabies. Was neat and tidy and ran a load of dishes through our dishwasher on his way out. Ideal in every way. Thanks Alex!

I am able to provide detailed updates on them as needed and as wanted! Spring Quarter (present-6/12) Schedule: M: 1-5:30pm T: 10a-4p W: 2-5:30pm R: 10a-3pm F: 1-3pm

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Alex can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I currently live in a small apartment, so I do not offer boarding at the time, but hope to in the future! I have my own transportation and am willing to drive your pet to a park for walks if they are car trained! For my safety, I will only work with animals current on rabies and required vaccines. (Puppy vaccine requirements dependent on age)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
