Pet care experience

Will love your pets like my own!

As a lifelong animal lover, I've personally owned dogs, cats, ferrets, and rats! Currently, I’m dog mom to a senior corgi. I’m passionate about providing personalized care for pets of all ages, energy levels, and medical needs. I understand that no one knows your pet better than you, and I’m committed to following your care instructions to the letter. With years of experience in managing reactive dogs, I’m well-prepared to ensure a safe and happy environment for your furbabies, even if they have complex needs. Having transitioned from a career as a librarian to remote work, I have the flexibility to spend quality time with your pet in the comfort of their own home. Whether it’s walking, running, or hiking, I’d love to take your pet along for an adventure—short or long! I’ll keep them happily engaged and tired out.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My personal experience with my own animals with complex needs means that I deeply understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your beloved pet with someone new. Especially if they have unique medical needs or behaviors. I will take your care instructions very seriously and take the time to build a relationship with your pet at their speed.

Alexa is my saving grace when I leave. I trust her so much with my furbabies. I don’t ever feel like I have to worry and I am able to enjoy my vacation. My pups love her! Thank you again!!!!

Always feel so comfortable leaving our only child in the care of Alexa! She goes above and beyond to care for him while we are away and provides frequent updates. I highly recommend her diligent care!

Alexa is the real deal! We are so lucky to have her watch after our somewhat high-maintenance pup. She is caring, experienced, dependable, professional, and a great communicator. She provided really good walks and attention while we were away. She comes highly recommended!

Alexa is AMAZING!!!!! I have a very high anxiety dog and she was able to calm her and care for her like she was her own. She spent tons of time with my pups. I would 1000% recommend her and will be rebooking her several times next year. Not only did she earn my trust but most important the trust of my babies that have never been without me. Thank you so much for being so amazing!!!!

Can't say enough good things about Alexa. We have a tough/reactive pup that can require extra attention on walks so we were stressed about finding a dog sitter that was comfortable with caring for him for a few days while we were away. Alexa went above and beyond. Though it was totally not required, she came ahead of time to have a meet n greet with him, and really took outstanding care of him while we were away and provided several updates. She has our highest recommendation! 💓🐕

I have trusted Alexa with my 2 cats for years. She has always taken truly wonderful care of them. I would trust her with the care of my pets anytime! They love when she comes over!
