I specialize in shy dogs!

Pet care experience

Back on Rover after a pandemic hiatus! I'm a dog mom myself with a rescue dog with a long list of special needs--- so I've seen it all! No request is too much OR too strange. I will take care of your BFF like they are my own... Which means lots of walks, treats, and playtime with or without other dogs (I love the dog park and have a dog-friendly vehicle). I don’t work until 11 am so I’m available for those morning walks or late night drop ins while you’re at dinner or a show. For house sitting I’ll treat your home like it is my own. I've trained dogs with the positive reinforcement methods, the Bark Buster's methods, and I am also used to working with leash aggressive dogs or dogs that use a muzzle.

Alex V was great. Our little boy was in great hands! We had updates and photos and throughout the day which was really nice and thoughtful. Would highly recommend Alex V for any dog sitting.

Alex was wonderful with our sweet, but quirky, older dogs. We really appreciated how she took extra time to make them comfortable and how communicative she was with us throughout the weekend. She took great care of our house, too. We highly recommend Alex!

Alex was AMAZING house sitting our 2 very large doggos. She followed all our instructions, sent lots of updates, and we came home to very happy pups. She scheduled a meet and greet well in advance and offered to come back in case we couldn't get home on time for the evening routine. The house was in great shape too. I would rebook her again in a heartbeat. Thank you Alex!

Alex was amazing! She took great care of our 3 dogs and made sure she let us know how they were throughout the weekend. Our pups loved her for sure!
