Love, cuddle,and play with your dog

Pet care experience

Since I was born my family has always had dogs. I didn't start caring for my own till I was 10 but I've always loved being around dogs. I'm in college fulltime so my availability varies each semester. I'm not sure what special skills I have but I'll always give the dogs lots of love and attention and take them on plenty of walks. I have 2 large Huskies at my parent's home that are afraid of storms so I've experience in calming dogs down when they're frightened or stressed. I also have an Australian Shepherd so I know the importance of playing with dogs and how long it can last sometimes. I have had many dogs in my life ranging from tiny Pomeranians to large Huskies and German Shepherds so I've had experience with many different shapes and sizes of dogs.

Alexa was awesome! Stayed in touch with us durning our trip and sent pics of our dog! Took great care of him and our place while we were gone. I’d highly recommend her and will hopefully be able to have her watch chinook for us again! Thanks very much!

Alexa did a great job taking care of my dogs. They are older and have a few issues that make me leary of leaving them for extended periods of time. Alexa was up for the challenge and did a great job. She was very easy to work with. She communicated well and asked questions any time she wasn’t sure of something. I will be using her again!

Alexa has been a pet owner since she was little. She cared for our family pets with love and affection. Whether it was walking them or just ensuring they were feed and had water. Her patience with animals was most apparent when the pets were not cooperating ie bathtime. Alexa is a caring soul when it comes to animals and a champion in their defense.

Alexa has taken care of our family pets for the last decade. Even as a young girl she took great care with her personal dog. I travel frequently in my job and as such in my absence she took care of the pets for me. She adheres to whatever feeding schedule I dictate, provides daily walks and tons of attention and play time.

Information Alexa B. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. I love all dogs! Before sitting a dog I'd first like to meet him or her in person to make sure that we feel comfortable around each other. I'd also like to know things like their favorite toy to play with, if they like car rides, where they prefer to sleep at night, and what scares them and what is the best way to comfort and calm them when they are scared. Also knowing their favorite places to take walks and where they like to be petted and scratched is very important.

A typical day

I'll take them on walks where ever they like the most, whether a trail around their home or some park nearby. My parents' dogs really like car rides so I think taking them on a nice little trip around the neighborhood or around the city would be a lot of fun. If they get along nicely with other dogs I'd love to take them to a dog park or a dog beach so they can run around and play.
