Pet care experience

I'll love them like my own.

I have had large dogs my entire life, all mixed including; german shepard/border collie cross, husky/german shepard cross. I know how to handle large and small dogs when out in public and I will love them like my own. Cookies and treats always work as great incentives if your pup is reactive on leash to other dogs or people and I will take that into account when taking them out for walks. If they are comfortable with cars they would be coming on car rides, coming swimming, walking and adventuring with me regularly. I will see to all of your dog's special needs as they arise and will remain attentive to their wishes along with the owners. Dogs are family, so they always get treated like family with me.

Safety, trust & environment

After the first meet and greet and the booking confirmed, I always ask for a few safety measures: breaker box location and water shut off valve. Once I've arrived for the first time I always send off a photo so you know that I've gotten inside and am spending time with your animals.

The cats were well taking care of. Alex was around and able to play and cuddle with them. My cats love her. The place was tidy and clean on my return. I'm very happy with Alex's service and pricing and would recommend her to anybody.

Alex is an amazing petsitter. Cats were well fed and cuddled by her, house was in great condition. No concerns leaving my cats in her hands and letting her stay at my house.

I usually enjoy my petsitters but found Alex a bit standofish and a little too on business side. I asked for pictures and feedback on how my dog was managing. As a stranger in my home and with my dog she did not respond well to my questions and needing reassurance all was well. She definitely did not go extra mile in care and was gone long periods for work at times (although she did warn me about this). She is very business like in her care. Hard to know how Lux was handling her as I was not there ut she seemed a little reserved when I got back.

Alex was quick at responding to messages and sent pictures of our cat Sammy while we were away. We appreciated her stopping by earlier than scheduled to check on Sammy when our travel plans changed last minute. Thank you Alex.

over 101 lbs

Alex can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I have zero preference about breed of dog, all of them are lovely. The more information the better. Preferred things to know though would be; eating habits, walking habits, vet information (just in case), and general "parents" schedule.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
