Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my home get a calm, cozy environment that feels like a second home. I live in a two story loft suite, have a front yard (unfenced) and am a 3 minute walk away from View Royal dog park. I will follow your pet’s feeding, walk, and bedtime routines, and I supervise outdoor time with secure leashes/harnesses—no off-leash areas unless you approve. I’m comfortable with reactive or anxious pets and give them space to warm up at their own pace. I keep my home clean, safe, and free from hazards, and I send regular photo updates so you always feel connected while you’re away.

Information Alexa L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pet’s routine, personality, medical needs, anxieties, triggers, or anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I’m comfortable caring for all pets and especially love large dogs. I grew up with a golden retriever and cats, have experience pet sitting, and regularly take friends’ and neighbors’ dogs on hikes and outings. I work in healthcare as a care aide, so I’m very comfortable with routines, giving oral medications, and staying calm and reassuring with anxious pets and people alike. My home is quiet, cozy, and structured, with two friendly kittens who are comfortable around respectful cats and dogs. For everyone’s safety, I’m not the best fit for dogs with aggression or a very high prey drive around cats.

A typical day

I love creating a fun but calm environment that fits each pet’s personality and routine. A typical day would include a long morning walk or hike, lots of sniffing and exploring, frequent potty breaks, and relaxing cuddle time throughout the day. If it’s a good fit for your dog, I also live close to a dog park and love taking dogs on beach walks and little adventures around the neighborhood. Evenings are usually calm and cozy with another long walk after dinner and lots of attention and companionship at home.

Your Pet’s Temporary BFF 🐾

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for dogs and cats since childhood. I’ve dog-sat for neighbors, taken friends’ dogs on hikes, and have experience with puppies, senior pets, and reactive dogs who need extra patience. I’ve also house-sat for families with cats and am comfortable with feeding, walks, baths, medication reminders, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets with different needs.

Alexa watched my sweet fur baby on many occasions including over night visits. I can’t rave enough about her care for my pooch. My dog is my world and she understood that and delivered a level care that matched my expectations. I would highly recommend her.

Alexa has watched my elderly cat multiple times. Right away I could tell that my cat, Steve, was going to be taken care of, loved, and given the attention he needs. I have now used Alexa multiple times to watch him, and recommend her absolutely.
