Safety, trust & environment

I am experienced in making sure pets have the best environment possible when they’re in my care. Fresh food and water will always be taken care of, any messes will be cleaned up, and I always have time for extra playtime/attention. I believe we’re entrusted caretakers to all animals and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make your pets as comfortable as possible while in my care. :)

Information Alexa R. would like to know about your pet

I’m happy to address any special needs or preferences for your pet, just let me know before or upon arrival! They’ll be cared for like my own!

A typical day

Long walks to explore the neighborhood and extra play time are all on the itinerary! Happy to give off leash play time for dogs in appropriate areas so they can have a little extra freedom. Also down for extra scratches, cuddles and attention when needed! I also love providing a comfortable environment when leaving after drop in visits including a few treats, windows open/ac on, favorite toys and blankets nearby, and background music or dog/cat tv on!

Reliable & Trusted Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a dedicated pet sitter with 13+ years of cat care experience and a gentle Rough Collie of my own. I’ve built long-term trust with clients through consistent, reliable care—backed by 91 five-star reviews and Star Sitter status. I specialize in attentive care for pets with specific needs, including medication schedules, special diets, senior care, multiple pets and anxious or sensitive animals who need a calm, steady presence. I’m very comfortable with routine and training reinforcement and following detailed instructions exactly as provided. I’m available for walks, in-home stays, extended daytime care, or multiple hours of drop-in visits depending on your pet’s needs. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent companionship and reduce stress for pets who do best with regular presence and routine. My goal is always to keep your pets comfortable and your mind at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own home and prioritize communication, consistency, and reliability so you always know they’re safe and cared for.

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.
