Pet care experience

Corgi pro & all-around dog charmer

I have a lot of energy (physically and mentally) which allows me to give your dog the special attention they deserve. I’m particularly great at providing play time and tiring out dogs! A busy dog is a happy dog! I will not be providing home services at my home but am more than happy to stay at your home (if you’re comfortable with it) and to take your pet to other environments like the park, mountains, etc with my car. I currently work remotely so I’ll be around to care and keep your dog(s) company.

Alex was incredible with my dog! He sent me updates, brought him over to his place and took along some of his comfort toys, took him on walks, and has a cute dog for Ziggy to spend time with. I really appreciated his updates :)

Alex did an amazing job checking in on my dog. He cared for all her needs and went above and beyond cleaning up after her.

House Sitting • Mar 09, 2024

Alex was the first Rover sitter I truly trusted after the meet and greet. I've had mediocre luck on Rover with sitters not walking the dog, leaving the pets all day when requested not to, not sending pictures or updates, leaving too soon on the last day, etc. Alex was polite and friendly, informative sending pictures daily, and became concerned and informed me when our cat disappeared for awhile. As Alex works remotely that was a big bonus for our 2 pets who are used to us being home all the time. In a word, Alex was the best sitter out of the 5 or so multi-night sitters we've hired on Rover and would highly recommend Alex if you want peace of mind.

Alex gave regular updates and left the place nice and clean! Even took Harvey on a hike! Will definitely re-book!

Alex is the best & went above & beyond in taking care of our pups. One of our dogs is 17 years old & was having issues & Alex took amazing care of her by making her chicken & rice for her upset stomach & taking her on short walks. Alex took our younger pup on a hike & so many walks that I think he’ll be disappointed when we’re back. Alex also sent lots of pictures & updates & even washed the guest sheets. Can’t recommend enough!

Pets

A typical day

I think it’s important to take dogs outside as much as possible! Depending on your dog’s needs, I’d love to take them on hikes or picnics at the park.

16 to 40 lbs

For me, as many details ahead of time is ideal. This allows me to understand your companion on a deeper level and prevents me from having to contact you while you’re away.
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.
