Safety, trust & environment

Every pet parent and pet is different, and I adapt to what works for you both. If you have a specific routine or instructions, I’ll follow them to a tee — I want your pet to feel safe and secure. Or if you’re more laid back, I’m totally happy to just give them love, attention, and great care. Either way, you can relax and actually enjoy your trip knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m clean, professional, and super communicative — you’ll get tons of photos and updates throughout, so you’re always in the loo

Information Alexa M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there’s anything I should know about your pet ahead of time — any medical stuff, dietary needs, allergies, medications, behavioral quirks, whatever helps me take the best care of them. The more you tell me, the better I can show up for your pet.

A typical day

If you’ve got specific instructions, I follow them exactly. Otherwise, here’s what happens: I come in, we hang out for a bit — pets and cuddles to get them comfortable. Then I handle their litter box, wash up, and get their food ready. Depending on the time, we might play first so they’re stimulated and happy. During meals I’m there with them, making sure everything’s good. After eating, they get water and tons of attention because that’s when the real bonding happens.

Pets

Your pet’s safe space, real care

Pet care experience

I spoil the pets I care for. Your dog gets exercise and genuine companionship. Your cat gets a safe, entertaining environment where they’re actually the center of attention. I’ve loved my own Maltese Poodle for six years and my British Shorthair cat is basically my child, that’s the energy I bring. No rushing, no distractions. Just real care that makes your pet feel loved and comfortable while you’re away.

Alexa took excellent care of my cat while I was away. My cat has separation anxiety and can't be left alone. I needed someone at the last minute and she took the job. She communicated well, shared lots of cute pictures and videos, and I could tell my cat loved her. Would definitely hire her again!
