Animal Trainer and Loves Playtime!

Pet care experience

Hey there! I have about 15 years of dog experience with family, but 7 years of independent, personal dog care experience (Hazel is 7). I was a professional Animal Trainer for Pet Shenanigans at Busch Gardens Williamsburg and now I care for Maymont’s animals. This being said I LOVE ALL ANIMALS! Special skills would include animal medication distribution, training, and diet preparation. I am very detail oriented and will make sure your pet is cared for as I would care for mine! I hope to hangout with your pooch (or cat) soon! Thank you for your time! -Alex W.

Alex was wonderful with our pets. Two dogs and a cat. She came over multiple times a day, took them for walks, fed them, gave medications. She sent us pictures and texts. I really liked that she kept a chart to make sure everything gets done. I would recommend Alex to my friends and will use her services again.

Alex was amazing with our pets! We had a last minute change of plans and she was so flexible and helpful! She left us detailed notes and took photos and stayed in communication with us while we were out of town. Thank you so much Alex!
