I'll love your pets like my own!

Pet care experience

I've grown up with dogs and want one of my own- just can't swing it yet :( I always jump on the opportunity to watch pets for friends and family, I thought I'd bring my services to Rover! I promise constant communication and whatever else might make you more comfortable. Your dog will be my number one priority when under my care and I promise they will be in a loving home!

Alex was great! I received plenty of photo updates and Woodson looked so happy with her. Highly recommend considering Alex to watch anyone’s pup!

Alex watched our 1.5 yr old golden retriever for a long weekend! We had some timing issues, but she was able to pick him up due to this. She sent us lots of pictures & communicated well. We received a very tired dog upon picking him up so I think he enjoyed himself!

Alex was so sweet and kind! I could tell how comfortable Avon felt with her by the time we picked her up. She took her on long walks and sent us plenty of photos of her soaking up the winter sun. Highly recommend and if we get the chance we will definitely rebook!

I'm a big morning walker and love to get your pup out and excersizing early. I can guarantee that your pet will be getting proper exercise, stimulation, and attention while in my care!

Information Alex S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any quirks or favorite activities! I would also appreciate knowing if there is anything that frightens your pet or if there is anything I should know about how they interact with other dogs encountered on a walk.

A typical day

I love to make sure that walks are not just for distance but for enjoyment as well. Part of the exercise for dogs is the mental one from being outdoors and taking in new scenes and scents. I will make sure your dog is getting the full experience!
