A+ cuddler wants to pamper your pet

Pet care experience

I've had dogs and cats for the better part of the past 13 years whether it be my own pet, my friends' animals, or shelter animals. I've spent over a year and a half volunteering at the Humane Society of Huron Valley as a dog walker where I learned different walking techniques, as well. As a result, I've had considerable experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, strengths, and activity levels. Whether it's a strenuous hour long hike to tire out your German shepherd or a leisurely walk around the block to get your senior dog some fresh air, I'm prepared to adjust to your dog's needs. In between walks, be assured that your best friend is getting plenty of cuddles, that messes are being cleaned, and that there will be lots of toy time. I believe that the stimulated dog is the happiest dog. While a doggy nap is never discouraged, lots of walking and toy time encourages healthy mind and body. As I live in an apartment complex with a cat, Tots, who does not do well with other animals, I must limit my services to in clients' homes only. She's kind of a diva (the cutest diva!), and I thank you for understanding!

Alex is a kind hearted person that had helped walk my beagle for me many times. Alex was in tune to how our dog behaved and understood that beagles have a distinct personality. Alex has also volunteered for the humane society and many times would share fun stories of her adventures walking the different dogs that were there. Alex knows her breeds and understands that each dog has a distinct personality she would be great helping anyone out with their pet.

About Alex M.

Skills

13 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Special needs dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed restrictions or preferences, I would just like to know your dog's favorite activities, daily routine, and any quirks that your dog may have (separation anxiety, doesn't play well with other dogs, afraid of storms, etc) so I can plan accordingly.

A typical day

With your permission, I'd love to take dogs to enjoy the greenbelt or nearby hiking trails. Otherwise, we'd take walks around the neighborhood or trips to a nearby dog park. Lots of fetch will be played, as well! For the less-active types, lounging in the yard may be on the agenda.
