Information Alex P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has a special feed schedule, medications or any special needs. Any behaviours you notice that I can account for. This includes food, walks, and any habits they may have. As well as their favourite things so I can make your time away as easy as possible on them.

A typical day

I am 100% willing to adjust my sitting habits to the dog or cat that I am watching! I love to stimulate dog’s minds. We’ll play games, practice tricks, go for walks around the neighbourhood and park (potentially the dog park if you and your dog are comfortable with it) and, of course, cuddle if your dog is a cuddlebug.

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm with lots of dogs, cats and other animals. I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life and loved it. Have also been relied on for pet care (dog sitting, boarding, walking, feeding, bathing, nail trims) by friends and family.

Alex has taken care of our two cats a few times now and we continue to be so happy with her care of them, our home and her overall professionalism. She takes great care to ensure our cats are well looked after and always keeps us in the loop.on any schedule changes. Highly recommend hiring Alex for any pet sitting needs!

Alex was fanastic to work with! She was excellent with our two cats, one of whom requires some extra patience to warm up to new people. She was prompt each day and always let me know if she needed to come earlier or later. She was also super helpful in bringing in some packages that were delivered! Absolutely will book with Alex again and we highly recommend her!

Alex was a fantastic sitter! This was our first time using Rover and she made it so easy. She was very professional, friendly and provided great updates and communication while we were away. She was very patient with our two cats and made sure they were well cared for. Thank you!!

This is our first time using Rover! Alex took care of our kitten Zippy while we were away and made the whole experience great and stress-free. Alex took the time to get to know our kitten first and took photos for us during her stay. Our kitten is usually very shy but she warmed up to Alex super quick. She is very friendly and personable! We will be booking with Alex from now on and recommending her to all my friends!
