I am a freelance photographer and creator, so my schedule is very flexible. Let me know what will work best for you, and I will do my best to accommodate it! Also yes, this means I’ll generally get pretty decent photos of your pets with my phone. If you’re more interested in a professional photo shoot with your pet, I’d be happy to discuss as well. ☺️

Information Alex D. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, all are welcome! Please let me know if they have any special needs or likes/dislikes! (Maybe they need a sweater in winter or booties in our heat!) Please note that I do not accept off-leash walks. If you do not have a leash, I have a quality slip lead that I’m happy to use with your permission.

A typical day

As I mentioned above, I do full time freelance work, and this allows me to fit clients in as needed. I generally try to adapt to what the individual pet needs! Of course, this can vary with weather, neighborhood, your pet, etc. For walks outside, I typically let the pet choose our direction so long as it’s safe to do so!

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m originally from Las Vegas, and have moved back recently after spending several years in Montana. I am now accepting new clients here in the Henderson area! I grew up around large breed dogs well into my college years. Spending most of my life in Montana got me more than familiar with working/herding breeds, as well as lots of mixes. Working in a dog day care center has introduced me to a lot of small dogs and unique breeds! After my childhood dogs crossed the rainbow bridge, I’d always wanted another dog. Fell in love with a guy and his cat, and now cats are just as much of my world. Currently, I am able to provide walks, dog/cat (other animals as well!) sitting at your home via drop-in visits, as well as house sitting overnight stays. I am unable to provide services in my own home due to my cat being king of the household. If you have a cat, you’ll understand that he makes all the rules! I also have experience caring for saltwater tanks and tropical fish. Please inquire for rates!

I needed a dog sitter last minute. Alex showed availability for the day in question. I read her bio and decided to tey her. I am so happy I did. Sierra absolutely loved her She was on time. My house was well taken care of BUT most importantly my girl was. If you are looking for a sitter, give Alex a try. I will definitely be using her again.

Alex took great care of our cat and house with both drop in visits and house sitting. She sent us amazing pictures and got a lot of cuddle time in with our cat. She also helped out with various other tasks to keep things running smoothly around our house.

This is the second time we've had Alex look after our cats. She did a wonderful job, especially considering all three cats are seniors needing medications and one is rather shy. Alex is reliable, a great communicator, flexible and has an obvious affinity with animals. We will definitely be booking with Alex again and highly recommend her!

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.
