Work from home & running companion

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Alex and I'm a big fan of our K-9 companions. I grew up with two dogs (both mutts in the 20-30 lb range) and miss having them in my day-to-day life. I've dog-sat for friends in the past for a few hours at a time up to weeks and months. I also walk a few nearby dogs for neighbors when they're too busy as well. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule, so I'll be happy to go on an adventure with your pup whenever you need! Happy to stay local in Somerville or take them into the city during longer stays. I am a runner, so if your dog is high-energy and can handle a 5-mile run, definitely let me know. Lazy dogs are OK too though :D

Alex loves dogs and would probably have one of his own if he had someone at home to help him take care of it. Alex has walked our dog Odin many times when we have been away. The two of them have become very attached. Alex seems to really enjoy hanging out with dogs and house-sat for a couple for few weeks, taking care of their little guy, Fabio. I know that couple was also really happy with Alex. Alex is very reliable and caring. He would be a great addition to your dog-walking team!

A typical day

I live near Davis square so I'm close to the bike path that runs through Somerville/Cambridge/Arlington, Fresh Pond reservoir, and the lively Davis Square itself. For longer stays we can head into Boston proper to check out the Common or other cool dog-friendly spots. Happy to take your pooch on a run as well if they're high-energy.
