Happy dog, from a simple jog

Pet care experience

I've spent time with many different types of dogs and cats. I am comfortable with going on regular walks with dogs and doing litter boxes for cats. I am open to following the clients' schedules for feeding and walks. Also i am confident in my ability to massage and soothe them when stressed. I am very attentive when it comes to cleaning up for animals and giving them my full attention.

Alex is sweet and reliable. I give him bonus points because he was willing to come and see my dogs a few times before I had to leave town so that my dogs wouldn’t be anxious. This was major to me cause there were some I interviewed that wouldn’t even do a meet and greet till I hired them. He did a great job and stayed in contact so that I wouldn’t worry.

Alex is fantastic with all breeds of dogs. He is understanding of dog behavior as well as simple action commands. I think Alex would be a fantastic and responsible dog walker.

I currently don't have any pets, but i used to own a wonderful little Yorkie named Razzle! I do not have a yard in my home, but can walk them around the neighborhood. For my clients home, i will be able to create the space that is necessary on their terms and manage the relationships of their pets.

Information Alex H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any dietary and physical restrictions or details i should know before hand. I do not have any preferred breeds in particular, but would prefer pets that aren't as aggressive towards me and other people we may meet out in the world.

A typical day

I will find joy and fulfillment out of playing fun games such as fetch and running around nature with your pets. I will most likely take them around the neighborhood, parks, and trails (based on the preference of the client and animal)
