Pet care experience

Experienced and reliable caretaker

I've been caring for dogs and other pets for over a decade. I own a house with a large, fenced-in back yard where your dog can run around freely. I take my care responsibilities very seriously, and make sure your pet gets more than enough exercise, attention, and nourishment. It's my joy to see animals happy, so I treat your pet as if it were my own (I do not currently have any pets of my own). My neighborhood is great for walks, and there are woods and dog parks nearby. If you want your pet to be comfortable and happy while you're away, you've found their resort!

Alex was awesome and took great care of our 9 year old and 2 year old pups, LouLou and Rudy. Alex has a huge fenced backyard that I’m sure they both enjoyed. Thank you Alex!

Alex was wonderful! We appreciate all of the pictures and updates he sent. He was great about taking our pups on walks and keeping them active. They love him!

Alex is wonderful with my elderly dog, Zoe. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that he's taking great care of her and she's so happy on her own vacation with him. Thank you, Alex!

Alex was very professional and accommodating of our last minute booking. He has a calm, caring demeanor which put Archie at ease right away. Alex was able to provide lots of activity for Archie, who is a high energy breed.

Our 2 boys have never been happier! Alex did an amazing job with our Australian shepherd and corgi that can be quite the handful! We got daily photos and updates and will definitely be reaching out to him again!

We are so grateful we found Alex to watch Pedro and Pepper while we were away for a week. He took great care of them, gave them lots of attention and exercise, and sent us plenty of photos so we could see how much fun they were having. Thank you, Alex!!!

Schedule

I'm a teacher. I usually leave my house at 7:30 and return by 3:30. On weekends, I tend to stay close to home and just hang with the animals in my care. Of course, during the summer, I can devote all my time to your pet(s).

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I give your pet meticulous attention. Depending on their habits and needs, they either get free range of the house, or are kept downstairs while I'm out of the house. If at your home, schedules are strictly followed as specified by you.

A typical day

Walks and runs at nearby parks and trails. We'll play games like fetch and tug-of-war. When your dog is all tired from activities, we chill and watch TV, with plenty of breaks for pats
