Dog trainer’s daughter

Pet care experience

There has never been a time in my life that I was without pets! Growing up with my mom as a distinguished dog trainer and author, I was surrounded by dogs and puppies almost constantly - and while dogs have always been around me, my love for animals doesn’t stop there. I owned horses growing up, and my husband and I now have three dogs and three cats of own! I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, as well as a range of pet ages from newborn to the elderly. I have worked with many special needs dogs and am comfortable dispensing medications or injections- I am confident that you will feel comfortable and reassured when I am with your pet. I will love them like my own!! please let me know if you have any questions!

Alex is amazing!! She took care of our dog Skippy and cat Boo last night and we are so thankful for her. Our dog was comfortable with her immediately. Alex left the best notes and sent pictures during the drop in which left us feeling so relaxed while away from home. We won’t hesitate to request her again and again!!

This was our first time leaving our dog with a someone other than family. Needless to say, we were nervous. After meeting Alex, all of the nervousness went away. Alex was very communicative and sent lots of updates. She made sure to ask all the right questions and really made Benny feel at home. It was clear that Benny was in great care while with Alex(and Daisy ?).

We have a large fenced in yard, my three little dogs love to play so if your pup is high energy, they will have lots of playmates here! On the other hand, if they are on the more calm side they will also be right at home here :)

A typical day

I love to chat with owners about what a typical day looks like for them/what an ideal day would look like for their pup; we have a large fenced yard for games, and a beautiful neighborhood for walks if that is what your dog prefers! I have a almost 5-year-old daughter, who loves to help me take care of the animals and is a never ending source of fetch if your pup likes to play ball!
