Pet care experience

When my roommate moved out with her frenchie that I helped and enjoyed taking care of I knew I wanted to continue caring for animals. I’ve helped neighbors and friends in the past but living with one was an amazing experience and having a life without dogs is simply one I can’t imagine. Rest assured your pups will be well taken care of and will be bathed (unless requested otherwise), stimulated, taken on long jogs (if they can keep up), and even picked up/dropped off (for a small gas fee)! Your furry friend will also have my undivided attention as they will be the only dog in the household. I only accept one client at a time for the safety of the dogs but if your pup plays nice there are plenty of other dogs in the downtown area as well as my building they can have play dates with! From puppies, to senior dogs, to aggressive dogs, to hyper dogs, to special needs dogs, to sick dogs, escape artists, as well as dogs with separation anxiety just to name a few. I am a very experienced sitter who can provide your dog with impeccable care, companionship, affection and love. I currently work from home so I will be with any and all dogs all of the time. I also run errands with the dogs as well I live in a complex with a fenced in yard in the downtown San Diego area so they would have room to run around and also live about 300 yards from a popular dog park that they can be walked to to play and meet other dogs. *I do offer discounts and reduced rates for those who are economically disadvantaged/low income Please reach out and let me know if you fit this criteria.*

Alex took good care of our dog while we were on our trip and kept us updated throughout her stay with him. I’m so glad I found Alex in Rover! He’s amazing and genuinely loves pets. Would definitely book again for future petsitting services! 🩷☺️

Alex did an amazing job dogsitting Oliver. He provided lots of updates and photos, was easy to communicate with, and made the dropoff/pickup simple and convenient. He was thorough in the meet and greet, got to know Oliver and asked plenty of questions to ensure he had everything needed.

Alex was a great dog sitter for Bagel. He sent fun daily updates and was able to handle her more difficult aspects with ease. Will definitely book again when I travel.

Information Alex C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you’re dog has any special needs I can accommodate. Including eating schedules, activities, medications or tendencies. I do not have any issues meeting their needs ****Please note to also leave behind any bowls at the time of drop off unless your dog uses a slow feeder. I have 4 and counting including a self refilling gallon water bowl. Please also double check to make sure everything is returned at pick up.****

A typical day

I love to stimulate the dogs mentally! We would play a bunch of games and enjoy the smells of the neighborhood, socialize with the other dogs nearby as well (if they are good with other dogs).
