Does your dog need a running buddy?
Pet care experience
I can run with your dog (only for dogs >1 year)! As a former Division 1 collegiate cross country and track runner, I often log many miles during the week. My girl Ember is my go-to running buddy, so I'm quite used to having a four-legged friend accompany me. If this is something in which you and your dog would be interested, please state that in your walk request. Current running rate is $35 for a 30 minute run (not currently accepting 60 min run requests). I've also always had a huge soft spot for dogs, so I enjoyed many neighborhood dog-sitting opportunities growing up. While in college, I participated in 4 Paws for Ability, which helps socialize puppies for future training as service dogs for children with disabilities. I have also fostered puppies and rescue dogs with traumatic pasts, so I have experience with all personalities. All of these experiences have been so wonderful, and it would be a pleasure to care for your precious pup as well!
Reviews
Can’t say enough positive things about Alexa! Took care of my foster puppies as if they were her own and could not have been more kind, caring, professional and understanding about the puppies needs and my sporadic schedule/long hours!
Alexa was absolutely amazing and really went above and beyond to take care of and love on two foster pups I’m looking after. Highly recommend!
Alexa did awesome, love that she sends pictures to help put your mind at ease.
I watched Alexa’s dog once and today she walked my boy! It’s very clear that Alexa treats all animals like she does Ember. She was communicative and helped me out last minute. Ember joined her while walking my dog which I’m sure Amos appreciated. Thank you so much Alexa!!

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to walk in quieter neighborhoods to keep any large distractions and hazards to a minimum, while also giving your pet the exercise and stimulation he/she needs to thrive.
Information Alexa V. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know any typical behaviors of your dog so I can understand them better and accommodate their needs, as well as keep an eye out for anything atypical.
A typical day
I love to spend quality time with the pups by teaching them new tricks and exploring the neighborhood with them! A motto that I try to live by with my dogs is "A tired dog is a good dog". By exercising them both physically and mentally, they're both happy and healthy. I believe that a variety of walks to see and sniff new things allows them to be their natural, curious selves. We often explore parks around the neighborhood to aid that exploration. I can also run with your dog (only for dogs >1 year)!

Availability
I currently attend graduate school with classes on only Mondays and Wednesdays, and I work from home part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible to take your pup on a fun adventure!
