Pet care experience

Mother of Chihuahuas Home 24/7

I only accept dogs that have had a meet and greet for the safety of your dogs and mine.This allows me to ensure that your pet will feel safe entering a new space and that you have confidence in knowing I am the right sitter for you. All kinds of animals have been drawn to me my whole life. I can't imagine my life without dogs. They contribute so much to my life. I have cared for puppies, seniors and even special needs. I am home 24/7 ensuring your babies will have plenty of company and snuggle time. My Chandra is my family and while yours stay with us your pups will be too. My home is as much for their comfort as it is mine. Some boarders will kennel dogs during their stay. The only time I kennel a dog is for a short period while I do a meet and greet. I do separate dogs during meals My home is double gated to assure no pups slip out. I have a series of child gates in my house and kennels to separate during feeding. I have been doing Rover sitting for 3 years. How did I get so lucky to do something that brings me such joy? This experience has not only built my dogs' confidence but has also allowed me to hone my skills in dog care and training.

Alex has hosted our pup, Lily, for daycare multiple times and Lily had her first slumber party (boarding) with Alex this weekend. We are pleased with the care Alex provided. We appreciated the video/photo updates that showed Lily playing and having the time of her life. Thanks Alex, you're the best!

Safety, trust & environment

My yard is securely fenced. (I am double gated) I am skilled at giving medications if needed. I will be delighted to treat your dear ones with adoration and love that I have for my own. My home is 4 miles from a 24-hour emergency vet. I will watch multiple dogs from different families only if I know the dogs well. I will also care for multiple dogs from the same family.

Pets

A typical day

I have a very energetic 6 pound, 6 year old Chihuahua that hopes your dog will play with her. Dogs are allowed on furniture and in bed here and my pup Chandra and I look forward to snuggle time. My home is double gated to safeguard "door dashers". My backyard is secure and I allow access to it any time. Plenty of time to frolic and play. I make sure that no one gets overheated playing too hard.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Alex can host up to 5 pets per night
Please tell me about your dogs diet & schedule. Any medications. Do they sleep in their own bed or with their human or crate trained? I always request an extra day of food because flight cancellations, traffic jams and other stuff can happen. If you bring dog toys I can't guarantee they will be returned in the same condition. I have plenty of toys.
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.
