Pet care experience

I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I will refuse services if it doesn’t align with my schedule, does not allow me to leave home to care for my own animals since I live alone, I will also not tolerate disrespect from owners during emergencies like in compatibility on meet and greets. I am a professional sitter I will not sit an animal or owner I’m not fully compatible with.

Alex is truly amazing! This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter, I have always been nervous leaving him since he has anxiety but Alex dismissed all my worries! She really does care for the animals in her care. She sent multiple pictures and videos as well as updates throughout the day. She is very communicative and I always knew what was going on. Could not recommend her enough!!

Animals truly have my heart as I have been an animal lover since I was 5 years old. Growing up with my large family, we have held generations of cats and dogs in our homes in the DFW area. I also grew up on the countryside of Texas raising Cattle, Horses, Sheeps, and Chickens during the summer. My family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to care for their Furry Kings and Queens. Ensuring the animals are bathed, fed, and walked. I also can train animals to learn how to eat on command, walk, and play fetch.

Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet

*Important* Please let me know if the animal is agressive or requires any special needs. I would love to be notified first but wont deny caring for the animal. I understand animal behavoir and respect the animal. What are their favorite toys and activites? What is their feeding and toileting schedule? What are their mannerisms around people and other animals? What triggers your pet? What are they afraid of? What will they react to? Who should I contact in an emergency? How do you deal with bad behavior and reward good behavior? Are there any medical issues or allergies? If so any medication? Cute nicknames they reply to? Can the pet be left alone? For how long? Is there anything else I need to know about your lovable pet?

A typical day

I love going to two specific parks for daily outdoor activities! :D The first park is named Victoria Park, located in Irving. The cats love it! I personally like to take my cats, Toby Lee Anne and Aries on nature walks all the time to Victoria Park. Victoria park is a green space with a large castle themed playground, an amphitheater, trails, picnic table and a pond. It's a beautiful sunlight pond with an ecosystem of small fish, turtles, cranes, and swans. I have videos on my instagram highlights where my cats play around in the grass and with their toys. Instagram: The Second Park is named Pacific Park Plaza in Downtown Dallas. The dogs love it! It's a great social network for dogs. It’s an amazing place to sit under many shade trees and people watch as they walk through the park. The grass in this park is green and inviting so dogs get really exctide to play in the feild. I usually like to have a tennis ball or frisbee with me to throw through the field as the dog goes and chase it. Tag is my favorite game to play with both cats and dogs. It's awesome to witness how much they get into the game so much outside! XD If any animal gets dehydrated or is hungry I will feed them their favorite treats and be served fresh water. During hot weather the animal and I will relax in the shade. During cold weathers we cuddle up on the coach. For daily indoor activities with cats and dogs I will pet them where ever they comfortably lay. At home, for example, my son Aries likes to relax like a king in his Cat Tower and Ill just talk to him and give him his favorite scratches on the head. With dogs I like to curl next to a a good boy, for example, named Soldier on the coach as he plays with his favorite toy. If the animal is vocal we'll have conversations or sing together in howls or meows. Its therapeutic to groom animals so ill take a brush and I'll brush them. During baths I'll have their toys in the tub and sing them a song and compliment them on how they smell after they're dried. If there's a lazer involved the cats and I are playing for hours through out the house.
