I will treat your dog like my own.

Pet care experience

I had a Golden Retriever for almost 15 years. Raised him from a puppy and was there until his final moment. I walked him, fed him, brushed him, and helped him rain or shine. Even when he started having mobility problems, I still took the utmost care of him. I was patient with him and cleaned up after him no matter what. That's the sort of care I'll give your pet(s) as well.

We booked two walks with Alex after he met us for a meet & greet to help him get to know our chow chow and it went really well. Not long after, we made arrangements for Alex to look after our dog while we were away on our trip. Alex kept us informed and stayed in constant communication with us. We felt confident that Alex would take good care of our dog, he is a fantastic host, and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you Alex!

Alex kindly met us for a meet-and-greet with our rescue dog prior to watching her and he asked all the right questions. He watched our dog for 24 hours and he updated us multiple times letting us know she was doing fine! We felt comfortable leaving her in his care while he worked from home and attended to her with her toys, meals, walks, and attention. He is polite, gentle, and seems very good with dogs. We would recommend him to others!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to let the dog approach me first to get comfortable. I let them explore my place so that they feel comfortable and do my best to ask the owner any questions about the dog so that I know how to best interact with them.

Lives in an apartment

Information Alex P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if the dog has any special dietary needs, has any physical issues, and how he/she interacts with other dogs. I live in a dog-friendly building (the management team once said there are more dogs than people here and I Believe it), so i want to make sure that your dog is comfortable entering elevators and shared spaces with other dogs.

A typical day

Lots of walks around the neighbourhood rain or shine, some running as well (if the dog can handle it), and plenty of time in one of the nearby parks.

I work from home five days per week, only going to the office once per month. I live in a very dog-friendly building and have plenty of green spaces nearby. When I get my breaks i can interact with the dog. And since I'm not on webcam often, I can multitask by playing a bit with the dog during slow moments as well.
