Safety, trust & environment

I'm happy to adjust to you and your dog's needs in terms of exercise, exposure to other dogs, and on/off leash comfort levels. I'd love to chat over the phone or by text to figure out if I'd be a good fit for your pets and their needs.

Information Alex S. would like to know about your pet

I always ask about a dog's general routine for outings / exercise, what commands y'all might be working on together, and particular likes for getting comfy and cozy at home. We can discuss these topics (and whatever else is most important for your dog) at our meet and greet to make sure Remy and your dog get on well and that we're a good fit for each other too.

A typical day

I take Remy out twice a day for hour(ish) adventures (sometimes on leash, sometimes off leash). I would love to bring your dog along depending on what they want/need.

Pet care experience

I've always loved spending time with dogs since I was a kid. Raising and training Remy, a Vizsla male with unlimited energy (who is now 5), has fast tracked my dog care experience. I absolutely love it. A few years ago, I started caring for dogs over Rover. It's been a wonderful experience for us, and I've especially enjoyed learning how to communicate with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personality types. Cats are good people too! For cats I'm happy to provide drop-in services and potentially house sitting if it works with my schedule.

We had great experience with Alex. Our puppy "Zuko" had a great time with Alex and his dog Remi.

Alex was wonderful watching our active and energetic 1 year old puppy for a long weekend. They went on great walks and adventures and I trusted our puppy was comfortable and well-taken care of. We’ll definitely use Alex again.

Alex is awesome! My pup was well taken care of and I learned quickly that i had nothing to worry about while she was with Alex. I was super grateful for the updates as well. Thank you for caring for our pup!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
