Come hang with Alex and Kaiya!

Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover, my family has always had pets in the house, and we were taught at a young age how dogs communicate and that it takes respect and great care to earn a dogs trust. I've helped raise two family dogs before I left to college, and once the pandemic started and school went virtual my girlfriend and I adopted our very first dog of our own- a six month old Siberian husky named Kaiya. Kaiya is now one year and seven months old and enjoys exercising with me and socializes very well with other dogs.

Alex was fantastic watching our fur babies! They were walked, well entertained and super happy. He took great care of our home as well and kept us updated throughout the visit. The videos we received were so fun and really put us at ease knowing our babies were in such great hands! Thank you Alex! You're out go-to-guy when it comes to our fur babies!

My dog Kaiya loves to play and get exercise, its the foundation of her breed to work hard and get rewarded doing so. Some of our favorite exercise includes walking, jogging, tug of war, and her favorite, longboarding! Kai and I longboard in the mornings before the heat comes in, she usually wakes up anywhere around 6:45-8 to let me know she needs to relive herself outside and we go then if its not too hot. We also like to frequent the new dog park here in Los Banos. My home is fenced and has a gate in front of the driveway that keeps larger dogs from getting out. No need to worry because there is a suitable backyard with a secured fence that keeps the medium to small breeds from getting out. There are two main sections inside the house where the dogs play; the main room which is a Livingroom/kitchen combo, and the garage that has been converted to another living space that I call the workroom. The workroom is air conditioned and insulated so it keeps cool and shares a door with the main room. Kaiya likes to hang out usually where I am and I'm most often in the workroom but when she needs her space I'll find her on the dog-allowed couch in the living room. Food and water bowls stay in the living room while treats are given anywhere a good boy or girl is to be found :)

Information Alex G. would like to know about your pet

Some important things to know is allergies, whether the dog is sociable around other pets, is there any food or toy aggression I should be worried about, a rough summary of the dogs daily routine.
