A RN with a love for pets

Pet care experience

I’ve owned, fostered and sat for many dogs over the years. I am not ready for my own dog yet but I have a lot of time, love, and energy to put toward pets like yours!

Alex is truly an exceptional dog walker who not only has a deep love for animals but also a natural talent for connecting with them! She shows genuine care and attention to detail with her medical knowledge that sets her apart from the rest. With Alex, you can absolutely trust that your dog will be treated like family, and get the best exercise and companionship they deserve!! She is professional, reliable, and personable, so you can expect a worry free experience and someone to depend on.

Alex is a wonderful pet-sitter who is extremely patient with dogs and really puts quality time into all aspects of pet care, from walking, to feeding, even bathing. She is very attentive to what your pet may need, and communicates regularly, if you need any updates. I highly recommend!

Alex is an incredibly hardworking individual and pet lover! She is friendly, energetic, and detail oriented. Alex is an excellent communicator very adaptable. She watched my 3 year old German shepherd, who was in a great mood after hanging out with Alex! Anyone who hires Alex would be lucky to have her

I’ve grown close to Alex over the past few years as we’ve advanced through nursing school together and become coworkers in the same Emergency Department. Besides Alex’s infectiously positive personality, the first things that comes to mind when I think about her is her love for dogs. During the school year Alex was constantly pampering, exercising with, and loving on friends’ dogs when given the opportunity—with tons of pictures to prove it! Though Alex recognizes that she may not have the availability to adopt a dog of her own, she funnels her love and energy into very meaningful days spent with others’ dogs who need extra companionship. I have no doubt that Alex would be the best woman for the job if you are ever in need of some extra help taking care of your own pets!
