Although I work full-time, I have a hybrid work schedule so pet care still fits easily into my routine. Whenever I am in the office I’m a 10 minute drive away. I’m also available for boarding on weekends and for evening walks and visits after work hours.

Information Alexa S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, or behaviors so I can provide the best care possible. I’m comfortable administering oral medication, following feeding schedules, and adjusting activities to match your pet’s energy level or age. The more I know, the more I can make them feel safe and cared for.

A typical day

A typical day with me includes plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I love taking dogs to nearby parks, letting them explore new smells, and making sure they get both exercise and mental stimulation. At home, I enjoy playing games, giving belly rubs, and keeping them comfortable and happy throughout the day. Mental stimulation for dogs is a very big deal for me. I enjoying trying to teach tricks or just mental puzzles/games.

Pet care experience

I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs, and I’m comfortable with both big and small breeds. I truly enjoy walking and running with dogs to help them stay active and happy. As a natural animal lover, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also have a safe, fenced-in backyard that’s perfect for playtime and exercise, giving dogs plenty of room to feel comfortable and cared for.

Alexa did an amazing job taking care of my dog. She was kind, reliable, and very attentive, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Communication was smooth, and it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. I really appreciated her help and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!
