Hello! My name is Alex, and although my Rover profile may not have a ton of reviews, and has been inactive for the past year, I do have lot of experience under my belt in pet care. I have walked over 500 dogs, and have boarded close to 100 dogs in my home. I even drove a pair of pooches to San Francisco to their new home once! Like many others, the past year has been very strange and full of changes. A surprise move took away my ability to board dogs in my home, and the pandemic made meeting clients or entering their homes very complicated. Not to mention that no one needed pet care services because they were staying home! It's been weird for us all, I'm sure you can relate. But things are looking up! I have been vaccinated, and as of April 12th I will have waited the appropriate amount of time to be considered fully vaccinated. Not having any pets of my own, hanging out with a furry pal has been one of my biggest longings through this whole ordeal. I have also gained some weight since I stopped walking dogs, so getting out and active will be an added bonus. I am hoping that as people start to go back into the office and start travelling again, I can rebuild a client base and eventually make dogs my primary gig again. My other source of work is background acting, which is a flexible gig that allows me to stop and start as needed, depending on my other obligations. I can make myself available for you and your pet! It's helpful to me to have a few days of notice before the service begins, as my calling service frowns upon making myself unavailable at the last second. I used to provide overnight sittings, but I am no longer wanting to stay in other peoples homes overnight, except for already established clients. If you are looking for someone to check in often or stay for most of the day while you are away, we can discuss how we can price that. I know paying for individual check ins or walks multiple times a day can get really expensive, and I can work with you. I love all of my doggie friends that I've made, and I miss them so much. I hope to be able to spend time giving love and attention to your cutest family members! 😄🐶🐾
