I walk dogs & tell them stories

Pet care experience

Over 30 years ago when I was a toddler I quickly became attracted to my families Irish Setter and ever since I've been drawn to canines. I've raised and lived with an Irish Setter, Cocker Spaniel, Golden Retriever, and now my wife and are proud parents of our gorgeous 2 yr old golden/Irish named Honey. She requires daily runs and long walks which we do on the lake and along the shoreline during the winter and play lots of fetch in our yard and nearby parks during the summer. I'm the guest you have over who ends up connecting more with the dog then the people. I often find myself having complete conversations with my dogs. I'm very active so walking & running is enjoyed not only by the dog but also by me. I'm also quite fit so I can handle strong breeds & personalities. I'm self employed and work from home so my schedule is flexible.

Alex has had a lifelong love for dogs. As a child and young adult, he helped his family raise two dogs. He had a very close, nurturing relationship with those dogs. As an adult, he and his wife are raising an almost two year old Irish setter/golden retriever. Alex is a physically active person and enjoys walking with and playing with dogs. He is a reliable, dependable person and maintains a positive work ethic.

Alex has had dogs in his life since he was young and has a deep love for all animals. He is a kind and warmhearted person and especially loving toward dogs. He cares for the well being and proper training of his own dog, Honey, who he adores and treats like his own child. Alex is self-employed as a Realtor, and so this allows for a flexible schedule that he sets himself. He is honest, reliable and very trustworthy. As a licensed Real Estate Agent, Alex is held to a higher standard of care when entering client's homes. Alex would be an excellent member of the Rover team!
