Pet care experience

I can’t wait to meet your pets!

Hi, my name is Alex! I go by they/them pronouns, mostly. I’ve been around every kind of animal at least once, and I’ve had all the pets you can imagine! I’ve been around animals even before I was born and I know how to read their moods like second nature. I used to work at Holiday Pet Barn, and I’ve only ever had jobs with animals. I get along with them better than people! I love sitting back with pets and curling up with them for a nap or a cuddle session; they’re the best cuddlers. I also enjoy watching dogs run around and play or chase a ball. Yuki loves to play fetch, so dogs at my house will always have a playmate with her! I have cats and dogs of my own, but the cats tend to keep to themselves. I will only board dogs who are alright with cats and get along with other dogs. Mine are always happy to see a new face. It’s easy for me to view other pets as my own and I’ll treat them as such. I guarantee they’ll be safe and happy. I hope they love my furry kids too! Pet care is my full time job now, but if I am watching your pet, I will sleep at your house to be with them as much as I can. When boarding at my house, if I’m not around, my mom will be, so the animals are rarely ever alone. Despite possibly jumping between different pets, I can guarantee no animal will go more than 5 hours without a potty break. I also have friends who can help me out in an emergency. I treat every animal like my own, including calling them dummies when they do something goofy! I let animals on the furniture (in my home), and if they are bad, they can be reprimanded and crated. My cats avoid most animals that come over, but some of them love dogs. Additionally, we have feral cats that we have adopted outside our house, so any dog coming over MUST be alright with cats.

Alex is easy and reliable as always. Our dogs just love them and are happy, happy, happy to see their friend.

Alex was so kind and gentle with our dogs. They immediately took to the girls and the girls to them. Alex was respectful of our property and kept us updated throughout the stay. Will book again!

Alex was great with Callie! They were highly communicative and punctual, and would trust them with our dog any time

Alex stepped up even after I mixed up the dates, and took the handoff from the first dog sitter who wasn’t available for our late schedule change. The dogs love her; I’m never worried about them when Alex is at our home.,

Alex was great! Easy communication, attentive, sent multiple photos of my boy Hugo. Easy person to work with. I felt confident after meeting them and having a conversation. This was the first time I left my dog with someone and barely worried about anything. Great experience for both me and my pet . Thank you Alex! 💜

Alex does a great job taking care of the house along with the pets. Our power went out and they took it in stride. I appreciate the frequent communication and ability to reach Alex during the week as things came up. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I currently do pet care full-time, so when I am watching your pets I am with them the entire time. The only time I would not be with your fuzzy kids is when I have to go run errands/check on other pets.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Alex can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Any breed is fine! I would like to know how energetic and friendly they are. I have a dog of my own that I’d like them to get along with. As well as my cats, who are very used to dogs. It is incredibly important that any dog coming over likes other animals.
