Monday through Friday, I work remote from 9-5 so it’s easy to plan my day to be at my client’s house for the majority of the day as needed, particularly for overnight bookings. My work is flexible that way, so you get the added bonus of me staying in the home for a portion of the day outside of my normal commitments. In the evening, I train jiujitsu but can otherwise plan to be in the home after a couple of hours of training. Weekends are a premium, but with advanced booking, it’s easier to schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow clear instructions, and like to take breaks to make room for play time/attention while I work from home. Dogs get a walk on my lunch break. Kitties get a little extra love! Describe the needs of your pet, and I will do my best to accommodate!

Information Alex B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special needs. I follow instructions clearly and communicate frequently, particularly if I have questions. Sending photos and videos of your pet is part of the fun and sometimes we get some great images.

A typical day

I love to feel connected with animals and help them feel loved while their “parents” are away. Providing a safe space that stimulates, loves, and nurtures is important! Walks, random bursts of play time, pets, treat-training (appropriate to feeding schedule) is fun, a great way to bond, and helps the pet with the absence of their human! I also like to send regular pictures, videos and just give general updates so if you prefer a consistent communicator - I'm your girl. I ask a ton of questions and like to make sure I'm handling things well for everyone involved.

Pet care experience

I’ve always felt a kinship to animals and love the bond that can grow between us and furry friends. I grew up with dogs (3 Rotties) and I've always managed to have at least one cat in my life as my bonded buddy. I don’t have a space where I can keep dogs, so the opportunity to fill my heart with furry friends is exciting and deeply fulfilling.

Alex did a great job house sitting for our dogs. They had excellent communication when setting up the sit as well as during the entire stay. My dogs were well taken care of and enjoyed their stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely book again.

Alex took great care of our two cats while we were away for a night. Our cats were fond of her, and we're happy how much they like her! We'll be booking with Alex again later this summer.

Alex took great care of our two cats while we were away! She stayed overnight and the house was in great shape, but more importantly we came back to happy and well-cared for kitties. She kept us updated and sent many photos, which made us happy. We will definitely book with Alex again!

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.
