Life-long dog lover

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alex, I have been in the Roanoke area for about 5 years but I have grown up in the small town of Warrenton, Virginia. I have always been a dog lover and I’ve helped raise all of our dogs from puppies. I’ve grown up with golden retrievers so I am prepared for the high energy of bigger dogs.I love to go on walks and love to give a dog the chance to also run out some of their energy(get the zoomies out). I know how much I care about my pup/how picky I am about getting a sitter and would treat yours as if it was mine. I love dogs and would love to help you take care of yours! Feel free to ask any questions!

This was our first time using Rover. Alex was very accommodating. She has a great fenced in yard for our pup to play, which was important to us. Our dog seemed well taken care of and Alex send a few pictures throughout the week. I would use Alex again.

Alex is THE BEST! She accepted our pup on short notice for a long-term stay and treated her like one of her own. We received pictures and updates throughout the week and there were no problems at all. Our Zara will miss Alex’s Maverick for sure. We will definitely call on Alex again!

Iroh had a fantastic time during his sleepover with Alex's dog Maverick. He came home the following morning exhausted and slept all day! Alex kept in touch the whole time and was great about sending me updates. She has an awesome backyard and Maverick is an absolute sweetheart. Would use her anytime!
