Cat mom and dog lover!

Pet care experience

I have been a pet owner my entire life, and I my primary experience is taking care of my family’s cats and dogs. I have also cared for my friends’ guinea pigs, cats, and dogs while they are away on vacation. I am a Stanford graduate and work from home in San Mateo. I am the proud co-parent of Percy and Cleo, and I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. Percy and Cleo would say I am trustworthy, responsible, caring, and playful. I love to snuggle and pet, but I am also know that animals need to get their energy out and play. When I lived with my parents, walking and playing with their dog was one of my favorite activities. I love to play with our cats, he has even learned to fetch (sort of)! You can trust that your pet is in good hands with me.

Alex was on time, very responsive and even adapted to my last minute schedule changes. My cat Bo enjoyed having her visit, cuddle and play with him!

My husband and I have know Alex for years, and she is so kind and loving. She has walked and fed our two dogs numerous times, and I cannot say enough good things about her! She is smart and very reliable. She loves our pets and has always taken excellent care of them when we go on vacation.

Alex is absolutely amazing! She has been pet sitting for me for the last year whenever I travel or am working late. I highly recommend her. She is very friendly and caring, and my dog and two cats warmed up to her immediately. She comes over to feed them, clean my cats’ litter box, walk my dog, and play with them. She is reliable and trustworthy, and I know she loves my pets like they are her own.

Safety, trust & environment

I ensure your pet is secure in the home, always locking behind me and watching that they do not escape when I enter or exit. I ensure your privacy is maintained, and that you can be in communication with me. I have answered a phone call about my cat on the ski slopes, that is how much I care.

Information Alex S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how your dog/cat reacts to new people so that I know how to approach your pet. How do they like to be pet and what is their favorite toy? Do they need special care? If so, what will be required?

A typical day

I love walking around San Mateo and Burlingame! I frequently walk and run in the neighborhoods and downtown. I love to play fetch and play with your fur baby!
