Crazy Pet Mom? Me too 🐶🐈‍⬛🐠🐰🐢

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!

Alex has been wonderful. Adaptation to their needs as elderly dogs. She showed good judgment by cutting their walk short as needed instead of forcing them to continue when they heard loud scary sounds.

This was our first time working with Alex and would without question book again. Alex sent GREAT pictures, respected all our quirks and communicated very thoroughly. Additionally when I needed to make a change with my plan Alex accommodated. 5/5

Alex was fantastic. Every visit came with photos and a detailed update on the babies. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.

Currently, I am not able to offer services out of my home, but I am more than happy to come to yours! Please don’t hesitate to let me know any needs your pet may have.

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!
