Safety, trust & environment
Communication is key so that you can trust in your pet's well being and relax while you are away. I provide ample pictures and detailed information about your pet's mood and behavior so that you have a crystal clear picture of how your companion is doing. I care for pets with empathy and prioritize your routine and schedule for care. Your care instructions will be respected, and your pet will be treated with the love and care that I give my own animals. I always follow your animal's body language and cues as to how they want to be interacted with whether it comes to giving pets, cuddles, playtime, or quiet time. For everyone's safety, all activities that I will do with your dogs will be on-leash or inside fenced areas.
Information Alex R. would like to know about your pet
In order to make your pet as comfortable as possible, it is important for me to know: - if your pet has been housesat before by a non-family member - your pet's usual mood and activity level - any history of behavioral issues and their triggers (resource guarding, anxiety during thunderstorms, etc.) - any current or potential medical issues or needs (i.e., medications, stress poops) - their favorite treats and activities! :)
A typical day
All activities follow your pet’s routine, based on your specifications and your pet’s unique needs. Happy to cuddle on the couch or go on a walk at a nearby park- whatever they need!

Pet care experience
Hello there! I love creating relationships centered around trust and communication - with both people and animals. I have over 20 years of experience pet sitting cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, and fish and I grew up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and rabbits. My current pet family consists of two rescue cats and a rescue Lab/Pyrenees mix. I also have a personal interest in positive reinforcement behavioral training. I provide exceptional attention to your pet companions during visits. My house-sitting rates include care from the evening through the morning, as well as a midday check-in on weekends and days when I work remotely. A Note on Fee Adjustments: My base rate is for clients within an 11 minute travel radius. If you're outside the radius, I am happy to care for your pets at an adjusted rate. Adjustments For Drop-Ins and Walks: --Within 11 minute travel radius, regular rates --12 minutes or more, an additional $1 per minute/per visit. Ex: 15 minutes, +$3 a visit. For House-sitting: --If you don't need midday or fully overnight care, I am happy to adjust my house-sitting rate to accommodate your needs. --Within 11 minute travel radius, regular rates --12 minutes or more, an additional $2 per extra minute. EX: 15 minutes, +$6/day.

Reviews
I always come home to happy, relaxed critters, and a tidy home. My babies love Alex!
As always Alex was communicative and made me feel at ease that my cat was well taken care of!
Alex is an incredible person in addition to be an incredible pet sitter. She goes out of her way to do everything for the kids she's taking care of and always ready to help in many other ways. We will never use another sitter unless she is unavailable She's A # ONE in our books!!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Her attentiveness and communication were exceptional from start to finish . Every update was detailed, thoughtful, and genuinely reassuring. She truly cared about my cats’ wellbeing. When an ice storm was incoming there was a real possibility of the power going out, she didn’t just check in she went above and beyond to make sure my cat would be safe and comfortable no matter what happened. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like their own and keeps you fully in the loop while on vacation, this is the sitter you want. I’ll absolutely be booking again. Thank you Alex!
