The Jack London of dog sitters

Pet care experience

I'm a 34-year-old teacher, writer and musician working from home. I live in a house on eight wooded acres of land in Swannanoa with my fiancé and our 1-year-old medium-sized dog named Ringo. We walk an average of 1.5 miles per day through secluded woods and get plenty of breaks for play throughout the day. As a house sitter I'm quiet and clean and can be content anywhere. I grew up with dogs and cats and ran my own pet-sitting business as a teenager. More recently my finance and I sat overnight regularly for a friend's elderly dog whenever they were away. We're currently pet-parents for a cat (Mochie) and our rescued dog (Ringo). I'm happy to accommodate any special needs pups or any special instructions.

Flynn had a great time over the Memorial day weekend, while I was working. He loved playing with Alex's dog Ringo, who is very sweet! Alex was great and Flynn gives him 4 paws up!

Alex was everything I could hope for - great communicator, great caregiver. He was gracious and accommodating. I recommend him highly and would request his services again.

I am so grateful to have found Alex for doggie daycare. My dog loves his pup, Ringo, and it's a joy to watch them play together. He has the perfect spot in the woods for the dogs to adventure and take walks, and he balances active time with opportunities for them to relax inside. I also appreciate how Alex takes the initiative to learn about my dog's habits and commands so that he can ensure continuity in his training. Blue runs to the door when we get to Alex's house and comes home happy and tired, so I can tell he is having a great time!
