Love is my specialty!

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for others’ animals since I was around 12, starting with basic dog walking and eventually doing boarding/house sitting. I have the most experience taking care of nervous/anxious dogs but can accommodate most any care request!

Alex did great with our pibble, Frankie. She can be anxious and needs a calm place when we go away. Alex seemed to fit that need perfectly. I got regular check ins and photos. Frankie got more walks than she gets a home, and a lap and couch to lounge on for six days. She was in heaven and we were happy to leave her in such good hands. Thank you Alex!

Alex took great care of our dog! He sent pictures and daily updates. She always looked happy. We will definitely be booking with him again. Thank you!

Our golden doodle loved Alex. We were initially worried about the separation anxiety since we were gone almost a week. But he was so comfortable there having stayed a few days and it was great he had some playmates as Alex often gets repeat clients. When our pup came back to for a day visit he was so happy to be back! You can see why Alex has so many repeat clients, he is so attentive and responsive and of course we loved all the photo updates. Alex was even very accommodating taking our pup one day early so we didn’t have to drive out during a snow storm. Thank you Alex!

Information Alex R. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know any quirks/needs your dog might have so I can accommodate them as best as possible. I do not have any breed preferences, but your dog must be good with other dogs because I’m always taking care of a few at a time and can’t have any aggression.

A typical day

I love making sure your dog gets plenty of physical and mental activity throughout the day so they are not bored, whether it be exercise or playtime! Also if they are comfortable in the car I may take them to the park.
