Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard and a good and safe walking neighborhood. The dogs are welcome to hangout in the house or outside as they prefer. Since I am home full time I can let them out to go potty as frequently as needed. With the rainy season upon us, I make sure to dry the dogs with a clean towel each time they come back inside.

Information Alex M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what works best for your dog and their needs. Do they need extra belly rubs or longer walks? Are they ball obsessed and need to play catch every day? We can do that!

A typical day

I love to keep the dogs stimulated with indoor and outdoor play, as well as walks in the neighborhood and nearby park. We always enjoy lots of belly rubs and cuddles in the evening!

Alex and her lab are fantastic with my pup. She has a dog that my pup loved to play with in the large yard and a young child that my dog enjoyed splashing in a pool with! Alex is quick to communicate and easy to work with, very responsible with instructions and items sent- like a special harness and food timing. Thanks Alex!

I was in a bind and Alex was available to watch my pup for a couple days. I couldn’t have asked for a better person or easier interaction. She treated my pup like her own and sent updates and photos daily. My pup and her pup played for hours and he came home exhausted. Great experience overall for first time using Rover. I highly recommend Alex for your pet care!

Alex did such a wonderful job caring for our 8 week lab puppy. Even when our puppy, Hank, chewed through all his potty pads, Alex went the extra mile to clean up and care for him so lovingly. She did 2 drop in visits for us and we will definitely use her again. She even asked which cares to do I which order! So sweet.

Alex’s pet care services are phenomenal. She’s cared for my 2 dogs and cat for several years. She’s truly an animal lover and understands the needs of my pets. I can rest easy when Alex is caring for my dogs and cat because of her knowledge, experience, and professionalism. She’s responsible, caring, and intelligent and truly has a way with animals. I highly recommend Alex for any pet care services!
