Pre-Med Student and Dog Lover

Pet care experience

My clients should feel very secure in my caring abilities, as I have serviced various high profile families with child care, in addition to pet care, over the past 14 years. I am a former collegiate athlete and medical/lab technician at Beverly Hills Optometry, and take on everyday with active and academic challenges. As a medical Assistant, ultimate care for my patients is my main priority. Your pet is no different! Plus, getting a break from the text books and replacing it with dog therapy has been statistically proven to demonstrate higher academic performances, not to mention fun and relaxing!! I have two pets of my own and have grown up with a veryyyy active Portuguese Water Dog, so high energy dogs are not foreign to me. I look forward to working with you and taking care of your beloved fur child!

Alexa went above and beyond during a in home visit for my little guy. She took him out, fed him, and played with him a lot. She sent me a cute picture and kept me posted with any info. Highly recommended!! I look forward to her watching Oscar in the future!

Alexa was fantastic! She went above and beyond the call of duty, and her care for your pet is palpable. Can not recommend her enough.

My boys love Alexa!! It was our first time doing home sitting with Hercules and she made us feel at ease knowing he was being well taken care of, even Pegasus who usually hides from new company he warmed right up to her. Sent us pictures along the way and very communicative as well. Will definitely be booking again so my boys can enjoy their time and we know they are in great hands!

The best dog sitter ever! Alexa greets our little dog, Dobbie, with sunshine and smiles every time she babysits. Dobbie can hardly contain her excitement whenever Alexa arrives. I sometimes wonder who Dobbie loves best. Dobbie knows Alexa will take her on walks, feed her, play with her, and snuggle with her. Always on time, Alexa can be relied upon for any task asked of her. Thank you, Alexa! Dobbie loves you.

Information Alexa L. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, and enjoy all dog sizes, shapes, and colors! No discrimination over here ;). I will say I'm a sucker for big dogs, and happen to be quite strong to handle them.

A typical day

I hike way too much and I'm a former runner at American University. Scenic exercise is very important to me. I'm also generally a big walker and enjoy saving miles and gas from time to time. Though, as a Chicagoan, I've found that quite difficult here in sunny Los Angeles.
