Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Alex! I have a large amount of experience with pet-sitting, walking, feeding, exercising, playing, and spending time with all types of animals (mostly dogs, horses, cats, and rabbits). Having grown up in a house with 4 dogs, I know that each one is just as unique and quirky and their human counterparts. Over the years, I have honed the ability to read dog behavior and body language and adjust myself accordingly. Dogs are really members of the family, and I think it is just as important to get to know them as I would anyone else. I like to tailor my time with them to what they need most, be it exercise, playtime, or attention and cuddles.
Reviews
Alex was great with Otis! She communicated timely, took care of him as requested, and even covered an extra visit. I will happily request her again in the future.
Alex is a very responsive and reliable sitter! Will definitely ask her to come again!
Alex was very friendly and our cat Apollo immediately loved her. She took great care of him while we were away making it a stress free experience for us and him.
Emma was the happiest she has ever been when we returned from vacation. Alex shared pictures and videos during our time away and even gave me updates on the condition of our house as we left the day after tropical storm Isaias (which left a tree on our lower roof!). Would definitely have Alex stay with Emma again!
About Alex M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a lot of experience with dogs who live in various environments. I am always hyperaware of escape artists and how your dog reacts to others.
Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know: 1. What is their breed/age? 2. How do they react to strangers? 3. Do they get along with other dogs?
A typical day
I love going for walks/runs in the park, but I think neighborhood strolls are just as nice. Fetch with tennis balls or frisbees. Fun games of tug-of-war. It really depends on what your dog prefers!
Services

Availability
I work a hybrid schedule in Brooklyn Heights, so I am always available for a lunch time walk or drop in session during the week
