Availability

I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to pet care. This means weekdays are always my most available, but I'm also more than happy to accommodate weekends as well. I'm also happy to discuss extended visits or any far-off plans if this helps make your plans any easier.

I live with my partner with no pets of our own, so your pet will have our undivided attention! We currently live in a medium sized apartment with a fenced-in second floor porch. We live right off of East Passyunk, one of the most walkable, dog-friendly areas in Philly with numerous dog parks nearby! I am happy to make house visits if you're in the area as well.

Dog's Best Friend!

Pet care experience

I have over 10 years of dog care experience and have lived with dogs all my life up until last year! Missing the presence of furry friend by my side so I'll be sure to give your pets lots of love. I work from home so have lots of flexibility, including all types of short and long-term visits.

Alex was great with walking Bodhi. He communicated well, was always prompt and was super flexible. Look forward to having him take care of and walk Bodhi again!

Alex was great with Beluga! Super flexible, took plenty of pictures, it's evident that on a scorching hot day, Alex was able to provide Beluga with plenty of relaxing space to hang out and cool down :)

Alex was super responsive, kind, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my senior dog with him for the day. My dog warmed up to him and even did some cuddling. Looking forward to using Alex's services again!
