Pet care experience

Friends FURever? Only in dog years.

Animal lover here! I have owned at least 1 dog and 1 cat for the past 33 years. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. From puppies/kittens to seniors, I’ve owned pets in all lifestages also. While I do have 3 cats of my own, I don’t currently have a dog, so the sitting business is perfect for me. I do live an active lifestyle that is ideal for active dogs, but I definitely have a soft spot for the lazier dogs as well. From hiking to walks in the park or just down to the mailbox, your dog will be exercised as much or as little as is ideal for her/him. Given the opportunity, I will care for your pet as if it was my own. Baths and grooming, medications, etc. are not an issue; I can handle it all.

The dogs were very happy when I got home and the house was clean. One of the dogs had topical medication and she had a little with no issues.

Did not return my house key! Also did not communicate well and “something came up” so my dog had to wait 14 hours to go potty. Find someone else.

Alexa watched our house and dog while we were away for a week. She was professional and courteous the whole time. She responded promptly to our messages and send pictures of our dog to make us feel at ease. Our house was exactly as we left it and our pup was happy. We would recommend Alexa for house-sitting and pet care.

I had to leave town and was nervous about finding someone reliable. Even with the short notice, Alexa was able to take care of our American Bulldog in a way that made it seem like Goji was having a staycation! Alexa is awesome. She’s friendly, knowledgable, and trustworthy. If we have the need again, I will definitely be rebooking with her.

We have known Alexa for years! She is a lovely young lady who will always do the right thing. Alexa’s ability to gain trust from older dogs and cats is really unique. She is patient and kind. We have been blessed to have her care for our pets. You will be lucky to have her too!

I have a “normal” Monday-Friday job, so pet care can fit into my routine the same as it does for anyone else with a full-time job. My availability in the afternoons, evenings, nights, and weekends is all wide open.

My biggest concern is a dog’s temperament and behavior. We have had a bad experience in the past, so I will no longer second-guess my initial opinion for the sake of a dollar.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
