Tons of Energy and Love For Dogs

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Alex and I can't wait to meet you and your dog! I became a sitter because I love getting to know dogs and fellow dog lovers. While you're away, your dog and I will play, whether its a house sitting stay, a drop in visit or a leisurely walk. Throughout my life, I have ben around all kinds of dogs. I'm the go-to sitter for my friends and family, and currently care for my parents incredibly energetic dog. I've been involved in sports since I was able to walk and I love nothing more than long walks and runs with her. I'd love to go on runs with your dog too! I'm no stranger to a full house, I've watched as many as three large dogs in one household. I really enjoy being able to help people out, especially if that includes hanging out with dogs! You and your pup will love my playful spirit and my sense of responsibility. I take pride in providing the best care possible and doing things right. When I commit to something, you know I'm going to give it my all. I'm compassionate to every human and animal I meet and have been known to get attached to any pet in my care. Your pet will be more than a client to me, they'll be a friend (and I hope you will be too!)

Alex is great! We've had her stay over when we're out of town as well as do walks when we are running late home from work. She is super responsive to communications, reliable, and just wonderful with our two dogs. They get so excited when they see her coming in that is warms my heart knowing they are in good hands.

Alex is great with our dog Dempsey. Alex obviously enjoys playing with and exercising Dempsey, but is also able to be firm and command the dog to obey when necessary. In addition, Alex is very responsible in general, so I never worry about whether she will show up or fulfill her duties very well. I definitely recommend Alex as a dog walker.

Alex is the most responsible person I know, and she is also the best pet owner to her own dog. She makes the effort to take her dog on 2 long walks every day without fail. If I ever go out of town, Alex is the first person I call to take care of my puppy because I know I can completely trust her. She's also athletic and in shape, so she won't be lazy while walking your pet!

Information Alex S. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences, big or small, I love them all! I would like to know their typical activity schedule (how long of walks/play they normally get each day) so I can plan a day appropriately. I'd also like to know what I can do to make you as comfortable as possible while your furry family member is in my care.

A typical day

I take my parent's dog on 45 minute - 1 hour long walks every day (basically to wear her out). I would show your dog the same care and make sure he/she gets a nice walk in with me. My parents' dogs personal favorite game is tug-of-war, so I've built up a lot of tug stamina in the past few years. We could walk to a near park and play fetch if there is a closed in space for it. I love taking dogs to dog parks (if they're in walking distance) so they can play with other pups. I also love exploring new places, so I'd love to take your dog on the adventure with me!
