Animal Guru

Pet care experience

Currently employed as the PetSmart Dog Trainer. Additionally, I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and truly started putting in the time and effort to care for them since Covid has allowed me more home time.

Alex was very professional & paid attention to detail. He was at out house when he was supposed to be and followed the directions I left for him. Next time we need someone to stop in we will definitely use him again!

Alex did a great job taking care of our fur babies. He didn't hesitate to reach out to us if he had questions and kept us well informed how the pups were doing.

This was our first experience with Rover and it went very well. We were a little unsure of the process but it turned out pretty easy. We used Alex for drop in visits since we had to take our oldest back to school. He provided us with pictures and good feedback. It was important to us to have someone close and that had a love of animals. We would recommend Alex and will definitely be using his services again.

We rehired Alex to look after our big dog Rocky again for a week while we celebrated our anniversary. He did an amazing job and kept us updated with pictures of Rocky and rocky looked like he was having a blast in all the pictures. Alex played fetch with him in our yard daily and made sure Rocky had enough toys to play with. We came home to a happy dog and we are very grateful we could celebrate our anniversary without worrying about how Rocky was faring back home thanks to Alex!

I will put your animals as my primary focus, allowing time for potty breaks, walks, or whatever they need to be the happiest fur-baby possible!

Information Alex H. would like to know about your pet

Often it is important to know how the dog acts around other animals, so I'm aware of if I should be open to public areas or avoid them. Also, any special feeding or relaxation habits so they can best enjoy our time together!

A typical day

I only hope that your dog gives me a good review at the end of our time together! My goal is to have him/her enjoy our time, whether that's adventurous park walks, new smells, or a relaxing stay inside.

I'm revamping my work schedule with animal care as the focus. I enjoy going to the park with my dogs every day, and currently attempting to pursue my interest in animals by being a provider on Rover and getting as much animal time as possible!
