Pet care experience

Portland local with love 4 pups!

Growing up I’ve always had a dog and/or a cat, now my childhood home has 4 dogs plus 2 cats! Other than the 6 at home I have lots of experience watching my younger brothers and helping friends when they dog sit. I would love more experience with pit bulls because they’re my favorite breed (big dogs in general tend to be my favorites)! I have enough experience with them to feel confident to take care of them but I’d definitely love to grow in that area.

Safety, trust & environment

I am always kind and caring toward any animal I’m around, to the point where you can’t describe me as anything but a hippie. Pets are just friends that I feed and play with. I also understand that animals have different personalities and while some are quick to trust and touch I understand that others are very much not. I’ve learned how to be very patient in cases like that.

Alex was great! Our two dogs were happy and well cared for when we came back, and Alex received our (overly) detailed instructions well and did a great job all around.

Alex took great care of Parker on their overnight stay together. She arrived on time and sent cute pics the next day. Would recommend her. Parker was safe and well cared for. Thanks Alex!

Our pets are pretty shy and anxious, and Alex does a wonderful job of respecting their boundaries, making sure they are taken care of, and communicating with us!

Alex was great with our doggo and communicated with us along the stay. We would be happy to have her watch Kyla again!

Schedule

I currently work from about 7am to 5/6pm, Tuesdays-Fridays. If you want a sitter on those days, no worries! I only say I’m “unavailable” so it’s understood that I will be busy for a lot of the day. I’m always open to discussing schedules and what works for you! Especially when asked in advance I have no problem changing up my schedule. I do this to make a living but I want to make time for it because I love it!

Does your pet have any anxiety’s, illnesses, or sensitivities I should know about and be careful with? And what are your pets favorite things? How can I get on their good side?
