I love animals!

Pet care experience

I have a huge variety of experience with pet-sitting and house-sitting. I have taken care of a large dog who is blind, a diabetic cat, and tons of other healthy dogs and cats. I have had pets my whole life, so I understand what it takes to care for them. I have been around tons of different animals with different temperaments, so I know how to deal with dogs and cats who might be less friendly. Like, I said I love animals, and I will take great care of any pets that I watch. I have lots of experience babysitting as well, so if your pets are your babies, I can give them that special attention! I am very accommodating to what your pets' needs are.

Alex was very quick to respond to questions or concerns however, we booked 3 visits per day and we noticed only through our in home security system that she was only making it for two visits. When I asked she said she was too afraid to speak up that she had missed those visits. If we had not noticed, we would have still been charged. We also noticed on the security camera that the dogs had gotten into the trash. Alex texted and asked where new trash bags were because the trash was full, not that they had gotten into the trash. If the dogs had eaten something harmful, I wouldn't have known about the incident, had we not looked on the security system. This all made for a very stressful trip away. Alex is very sweet but because she was not honest with us up front about potentially harmful incidents and being over charged, we will unfortunately not be booking with her again.

Alex did a wonderful job with Tessa! She's not the easiest dog at first, but Alex seemed to put her at ease quickly! She sent me plenty of updates and I will definitely be using her again!

Alex was a great sitter! She gave me updates and let me know how it went after she was done with her check-ins. Alex even watered my vegetable garden for me! I will definitely be using her services again. You would not be disappointed to hire Alex for your dog sitting needs.

I have 2 large and energetic dogs, and Alex provides a supportive and calming environment for both of them. She regularly sits with them when I am out of town; both of the dogs wag their tail and come to greet her when she approaches the back door. They like her! Alex is able to manage their enthusiasm with the kindest gestures and the dogs really do listen to her. Honestly, I will ask Alex to take care of the dogs before asking anyone else. She is reliable and trustworthy. I highly recommend!
