Alex was great! He communicated clearly, checked in to make sure he understood my preferences, and sent regular updates with pictures that I really appreciated. My pups were happy and well cared for, and it gave me total peace of mind. I’d recommend Alex to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter.

Alex was great with the dogs. He kept us up to date on how they were doing. We will definitely use him again.
