Long walks and Lovin's

Pet care experience

I have been around both cats and dogs all of my life, and don't think I've met a four-legged friend I didn't love. In terms of my own pets, I have raised my 2-year-old Australian Shepherd from 12 weeks old and have raised my cats since they were all around 3 weeks old. I'm available to feed, give medication, exercise, and companionship to your pet while you're away!

I have known Alexandra since she was a child and know she has grown up around animals. Cats, Dogs, Hamsters, Turtles, and Horses, were her brothers and sisters. Alex was even a 1st runner up D2 Dressage Champion by the age of 6! She is very trustworthy, punctual, and has a great empathy for animals of all kinds. I have even known her to stop what she was doing and pull off the road to help a turtle to the other side. Alex has a very strong understanding of medical issues and received a CNA before graduating High School and is very intuitive when it comes to animal care. If you are looking for a caring, loving, pet caregiver, I would highly recommend this young lady.

Information Alex W. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know the energy level, size, and breed, and what kind of things motivate your pup (i.e. toys, treats, love, etc.). This helps me prepare for our time together!

I love going to the dog park and taking walks on the greenway. I'm also an avid lover of fetch and don't mind playing chase!
