Hi my name is Alexa! I am a recent biological sciences graduate from UIC, hoping to someday work in the field of wildlife biology because I am a huge animal lover. I grew up with a dog and other pets in the household, so I am quite accustomed to caring for and watching over them. I have had practice teaching my dog basic commands, house training and grooming to make sure he looks his best! This previous year I had worked as a nanny and one of my duties was to take care of their pet. She was a rescue and had a hard time with new people due to a rough past, but together we overcame those challenges and created a great bond. My main priority is the safety and well-being of your pet. I am willing to both walking and pet sitting. Please reach out if you think we'd be a good fit! I have a flexible availability and offer the option for overnight care. Please feel free to let me know what times you would need me to be available and I will do my best in fulfilling that need! I have a lot of room for your pet to play and roam around. I also have a crate if that is the preferred location for your pet. The backyard is fenced off and gated so your pet is sure not to escape!
