Keeping you & your pets happy!

Pet care experience

I'm experienced with cats, reptiles, birds, and fish. I love dogs of all kind, and have taken care of a range of sizes and breeds. I love hearding dogs a lot. I own 3 cats and up until very recently (💞) we lived with a great big German Shepard. I've owned and cared for a number of reptiles, fish, birds and rodents aswell.

We were so glad Alex was available to dog sit for us again while we were out of town. It puts our minds at ease knowing our dog Rio is well taken care of. She enjoyed Alex’s company so much, she doesn’t even know we’re gone! Don’t hesitate to rely on Alex’s services, your pets will be in good hands!

Rio was so happy to see Alex again! They went on walks together for a whole week and I was so relieved to know Rio was getting exercise and attention on a week I wouldn’t have been able to walk her myself. Alex is easy to communicate with, and very trustworthy. We’ll continue to count on them for our dog walking and dog sitting needs

We had a great experience with Alex, who stayed with our dog Rio for three nights while we were abroad. We got daily updates (with pictures of the two of them snuggling on the couch! ?) and overall felt very reassured that Rio was in great company while we were traveling. Alex is a kind and trustworthy person who will care for your pet with dedication. Our house was also exactly as when we left, very tidy.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm comfortable handling your animal how your handle your animal. If your dog likes to sleep in bed with you, he's welcome to sleep with me. If you like having her in a kennel at night, that's okay with me too. I am a housekeeper and I understand that importance of keeping your home perfect for when you come home aswell. Your pets happiness, health and your home are my upmost concern.

Information Alex A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what kinds of limitations, preferences, or no-nos your pups have and I will fully accommodate this. If your dog as any special little quirks or specific command words let me know so I can properly communicate with them. Please let me know if your animal has any medical issues or allergies I should monitor and be aware of!

A typical day

I love taking the pups on nature walks and playing outside in the yard! If they stay with me, we'll go to the big park near my house, take a walk around my neighborhood, or go outside to my big backyard to having a no-leash play time. Maybe after that we can chill and have a nice brushing.
