Pet care experience
My family fostered dogs starting when I was age 9, while at the time also having our own dog. We fostered a wide array of old, young, big and small, I loved every dog that came through our home like it was my own, and we even had two foster failures. My first job was dog bathing, so I'm also well versed in dog nail clipping, paw pad shaving, and bathing in general.
Reviews
Alex is wonderful!!! I have a house full of animals and while they were all glad to see me when I got back, when Alex stays here, they settle immediately which tells me everything I need to know about how they were cared for while I was away. I've had other sitters stay at my house but with them, my animals tend to be anxious for a day or two after I get back. But when Alex stays here? Nothing but some happy kisses then back to business. I'm always super sad when Alex is booked when I have a trip. He's the BEST and I worry about nothing when I'm away!!
We really appreciate Alex! Great communication before, during and after our trip and the entire fur family were cared for like they were his own while we were away.
Alex has spent a LOT of time with my various animals (cats, dogs, and chickens). He's THE BEST. Like an animal whisperer. One of my pups is an older, somewhat testy creature and Alex is so incredible with him. I've left my brood in Alex's care often as I travel for work and I always come home to a very happy home, which is priceless. It can get stressful leaving your fur and feathered babies but having Alex substitute for me is a dream.
Alex is a remarkably caring and responsible caretaker for animals of all shapes and sizes! We can always rely on Alex to provide quality care for our two big puppers! They are always so excited when Alex comes over to hang out when we're out of town! Highly recommend Alex for any and all types of pets!

If I'm taking care of your furry kids, I'm always making sure they have fresh water, I intend to let your pup out 3-4 times a day (not including a walk). If your dog is active, setting aside 20-30 minutes for playtime as well.
Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has any reactivity, especially on leash, just let me know! My dogs are both reactive, so I can try to help. I love big bully breeds, but I'm happy caring for any pup!
A typical day
I like to do whatever the dog enjoys most, whether that be a simple walk or going to a park and throwing the ball for an hour. I'm very well versed in the game of tug-o-war!

I work part-time right now, typically from 9 in the morning-1PM but my hours are pretty flexible, plenty of time to care for any animal friends!
