Pet care experience

Over a decade experience petsitting

Hi, I’m Alex, and I have had my own little pet-sitting business for approximately the last 15 years. I have also previously worked at a doggy daycare named BlackDog Daycare and currently work for a dog walking company named The Puppy Butlers. I have provided services to many people and pups all over the Upper Moreland and surrounding areas. I am always looking to meet and care for more pets so feel free to contact me any time. Throughout my decade plus of pet-sitting I have cared for all different types of breeds from Pitbulls to Australian Shepards to American Bulldogs to a tiny little Shih Tzu. Some super energetic, some lazy as the day is long. Some friendly as can be, and some super anxious. So I’ve seen pretty much anything you can expect and understand the different things it takes to care for different animals of all sizes and shapes. I know it isn’t the easiest thing to do to leave your beloved pets with someone you have just met which is why I am more than happy to go the extra mile to make you feel as comfortable as possible whether that means endless pics or facetime or whatever makes you feel best. I look forward to hearing from you and to meeting all my new pup friends!

Alex was great with my very hyper, energetic and reactive dog! He was able to wrangle him even though he’s an extreme puller and took great care of him while my pup has a tail injury. Alex is friendly and responsive, I’d book with him again!

Alex is the best! I hurt my knee and needed someone to walk my large pittie last minute. Alex was nice enough to work him into his schedule even though we have not worked with him before. My dog Alfie tends to pull in a leash and while he loves people, he can sometimes be picky about who walks him. However, he LOVES Alex and Alex does a great job of controlling Alfie on a leash. Thank you so much for your help!

Alex took excellent care of our dogs while we were away for a few days. He was very communicative, sent us pictures and check-ins at least twice a day, and followed all instructions to the letter. This was our first time using a sitter from Rover, and we were a bit nervous about how it would go. Alex exceeded all expectations and gave us invaluable peace of mind all week. 10/10 would definitely book Alex again.

Alex was great! He followed all directions for caring for our dog overnight. He kept in communication with my spouse and myself and sent some wonderful pictures of our happy pup! I highly recommend Alex for any overnight dog sitting needs.

I currently have a super light schedule where I am only walking at most 3 dogs a day so I have countless hours available to fit more walks or let outs or whatever you need in to my daily schedule!

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks whether it be through the neighborhood or to a local park or really wherever they love to go. I love to find a big field and take them there with a ball or toy and let them run around and get plenty of exercise (of course with permission, some pups can’t be trusted off their leash ever lol).

I love all dogs to be honest but I do have a soft spot for pitbulls because I just feel they are so misunderstood. They just want love like everyone else and like any dog when shown love they will give it back even more.
