Expert Dog Lover & Potty Master
Pet care experience
--Hi, I have been dog sitting friends and colleagues dogs extensively for the past five years. -I have also worked with dogs that have recently had surgery and have experience with administering medications, antibiotics, and applying topical treatments -I am an Enthusiastic outdoor lover who is able to take dogs on long lovely runs/walks if needed, and who also isn't afraid tog et dirty and roll around in the mud (if your dog is into those kind of activities) : ) -I also spent 2 years as an Assistant Rhodesian Ridgeback dog trainer. This really taught me how to listen and be attentive to a dogs needs. -The Beautiful Breeds I have worked with include Labs, Collies, Terriers, Pitbulls, Ridgebacks, and Pug Bishans. These dogs have ranged from three weeks to sixteen weeks old.
About Alex M.

Skills
Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet
I do not have particular breed preferences, but I do like to know the dogs habits before sitting. Such as if they're social, or if they have any health issues, or if there is training that the owners are working towards teaching the dog. Right before sitting I like to know eating times, dietary restrictions, if they have friend-dogs in the neighborhood, the closest vet to the house.
A typical day
I love going on trail hikes with dogs depending on their comfortability with roughing it up outside. For a more leisurely stroll, I may keep things close and around the neighborhood. For play time, I have a lot of friends that tend to frequent the dog parks. Dog parks aren't for every dog but they can be very therapeutic for some. I'm also a big fan of Petco trips, where I can spoil the dog rotten ; ). Oh, and I try to regularly keep my throwing arm in shape so that the dog never feels let down during a round 'fetch'
