Your pup would pick me 🐶
Pet care experience
I’ve handled pets large to small my entire life (from horses to rats!) I’ve raised cats and am very comfortable with them for in home care. Dogs have always been a part of my life; I have experience with numerous breeds particularly pit bull-type breeds and Rottweilers (puppies to seniors; ive experienced it). I am currently working to become a professional dog trainer and studying dog behavior. I believe mental stimulation is as important as physical for dogs; I LOVE including obedience training, tricks, and games that get your pups brain going; one of my favorite things is finding activities that naturally “click” with different dogs - so they get to learn, exercise, and have fun at the same time. I am the go to puppy trainer, pet sitter, and animal caretaker in my family and with their friends as well; I do pet sit for family with foster animals, caring for multiple cats and dogs w/ special needs in a single household. From exercise, to obedience training, to in home care; My focus is working with pets and continuing education in dog behavior. I am flexible for dog walks, and can also do in home care during the day when your at work and your pet needs some play time. For in home visits I love to go over all house rules, I respect your boundaries and want your pet to see me as a welcome addition to their routine. For safety, when outside the home, I will not introduce your dog to other dogs or people w/o express permission I will discuss if equipment needs to be changed or added to maximize the safety of our visits (I.e pet pulls, bolts, is reactive etc)
Reviews
Alex was great!! My schedule was always changing last minute and she was very understanding and helpful. When it would rain, she would spend time with my dog and play with him which was greatly appreciated. Highly Highly recommend her!
The absolute best! Never have any worries when I leave my pup with Alex.
Alex is the best! Always on point and my dog loves her!
If you love your dog like a child - Alex is perfect for the job. Pictures and updates daily of Bowser, really made it that much easier to travel. She is very professional and you can tell how much she loves animals. I will always go to her to take care of my pup.

Reactivity and the level of reaction towards triggers like other dogs, cats, small animals, people and children. I am comfortable with working with reactive pets; just need to be properly prepared Special needs, health conditions, allergies are also important - anything you feel you’d like me to know from a favorite treat to a spot in the neighborhood they love; I want you and your dog to see me as a positive, welcome addition to your routine.
A typical day
I LOVE finding activities and places that fill your dogs exercise needs. I like changing up our routes and finding open spots of grass for dogs to explore, let them follow scents, decompress and enjoy a bit of ‘loose leash’ time. Let me know of any games your pet already enjoys; I love including them in their visits.
