Student looking for furry friends!
Pet care experience
I’ve always loved animals, but have never had any pets of my own. I’ve taken care of dogs in my neighborhood and have always looked forward to those moments.

Thanks, Alex! Great job.
Alex takes excellent care of our Yorkie! We love hearing about Alex's adventures with our little nugget! Alex has updated us promptly if she notices any concerns. Alex's communications are timely. We have no concerns about our dog when we go to work because we know Alex will provide our munchkin with lots of care and attention! We highly recommend Alex to care for your pets!
Alex has grown up with our dogs (and a cat, multiple Guinea Pigs, mice, a hamster, and many fish) and so we have witnessed first-hand her sensitivity and responsiveness to pets. Alex is trustworthy, intuitive, reliable, and communicative. We’ve known her for a long, long time. Animals, by their nature, understand the compassion Alex has for them; we see this especially with our dogs who always love to see her. And of course, we love to see her too!
First of all, I asked A to pet/housesit for me in a pinch, during a time-sensitive event in my life, because I already knew that she was a warm, compassionate, conscientious human being. With just a couple days to spare before I left town, A made arrangements to come meet my beloved beasts (2 dogs, 2 cats), take in the space where they live, and understand their daily routine, needs, and quirks. A was such a dear to them. She went out of her way to make sure they had the time and space to do their business outside --even when they felt a little "off" because I wasn't there -- and to be fed and loved. Just as important for me, A checked in with me, so that I wasn't worried about my pets. If she had any questions, she was happy to do as I had asked, to reach out and text me. When I returned home, the beasts were happy and well-cared for, and my house appeared as if no guest had been there. Clean sheets, towels, and dishes. A went above and beyond for my and my animals!

A typical day
I love playing with the dogs I watch, and also enjoying going for runs around local parks (Buckingham is a personal favorite) if the dog is energetic and able!
