Dogs make the world go 'round!

Pet care experience

Hello there! My name is Alexa and I am currently a senior Musical Theater major at the University of the Arts. I am so excited to be on Rover for the opportunity to meet some incredible dogs and explore the city together or have a fun play date! The ability to connect with such loving and high-energy animals comes naturally to me and is something I love to do. All dogs are created differently, and I will cater to those differences. I enjoy a good speed walk as much as I enjoy a slow stroll. I will gladly play with a high-energy dog as much as I would relax with a more mellow one. My first dog walking job was when I was in 6th grade, and all of my family members have always had wonderful, loving, incredibly unique and different dogs. While I am not trained in animal healthcare, I have had experience giving pills and medication to animals and would follow whatever procedures are necessary. My class schedule makes my hours different every weekday, but generally I am available after 4:30 on Mondays, before 9:30 AM and after 1 PM on Tuesdays, after 4 on Wednesdays, after 4 on Thursdays, and before 9:30 and after 4 on Fridays. My weekends are generally very open! If you have any more questions, please feel free to contact me!

Alexa is an animal lover. When her own Great Pyrenees endured surgery and radiation due to squamous cell carcinoma, Alexa gave her dog Blizzard two additional years of life through her enduring love and care. She also cared for and loved her three cats (one of whom had cancer, and another who required weekly subcutaneous fluids) who lived to ripe old ages. Alexa has not only cared for and loved her own pets, but has cared for the dogs of friends/neighbors. And since Alexa loves to walk, walking with a dog makes it even better! I wholeheartedly recommend Alexa Wilder for the job of pet sitter/walker/caregiver.

Alexa loves animals. She grew up with a dog and walked him regularly. She's a brilliant student and worker. Alexa is trustworthy, thoughtful, and hard working. If given the chance, she will be a wonderful pet sitter.
