Safety, trust & environment

My most common service is house-sitting. I am happy to do this, if it is the best option for your pet. I would never want them to be uncomfortable in a new space. Meet and greets are always available as well! I do have a yard with no fence, and live on a lake with a dock. I do have 2 cats, but are very used to larger animals, and friendly with dogs. They can be restricted if necessary. I can easily crate your dog, if and when it is needed. I am also very good with cats, and have no issues if they get nervous or frightened.

Information Alex e. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet requires any special care, or certain needs that need to be addressed. I have no problem administering medication or things of that nature. I just want to ensure your pet gets the best possible care, and you’re comfortable leaving them with me.

A typical day

I am happy to take your pet on long walks, and if you’re willing, maybe a drive. I love to play outside with them, or even inside with their toys. For cats, I am very familiar with keeping them stimulated if you’d prefer, or making sure they get the attention they deserve.

Your pet will always be my priority

Pet care experience

From about the middle of August to early May, I am based generally out of the Bridgeport, CT area where I attend school. In the summer months, May to August, my services are limited to central and southern New Hampshire. I am always happy to care for your pet to the best of my ability, as long as I’m not limited geographically. I have helped old dogs in the water, making sure they can swim, or at least tread water, while ensuring they stay afloat. I have taken care of dogs from year-old puppies, to old ones who need a little assistance getting up and down. I am always ready to go on a nice long walk, or just stay in and relax.

Alex was great with Lucy and Sadie. She was prompt in her communication as well as her planned arrival for the sitting as well as the meet and greet. We greatly appreciated her professionalism and service!

Alex was extremely easy to work with! We were in a last minute pickle 24 hours the day before us being away and she was kind and responsive! She showed up when expected, sent photos and gave updates. 10/10 would book her again!

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.
