Pet care experience

I love taking care of dogs and cats

Growing up I had 2 English bulldogs, golden retriever, shih tzu, chihuahua & a rabbit& a cat . All at different times but my love for the animals was always strong. From feeding my dogs in the morning and walking them, to giving my English bulldogs baths in the tub. Brushing and grooming was also a constant thing in my house because of how much they would shed ! I enjoy it all, my life long buddies helped me be the human I am. Most my time has to do with painting and when I’m not creating I have all the time and attention it takes to care for your animals. I prefer to get down on a ground level with an animal to connect visually. I also speak direct with compassion, love and care . I have a strong voice that’s good for training .

Safety, trust & environment

I enjoy cleaning and am a very respectful guest when it comes to making sure everything is safe and clean for your animals. I do enjoy cooking and am always sure to clean up and do the dishes after. I like to spend time being at the dogs level so you can expect me to spend a lot of time sitting on the ground, couch, or bed and talking with them for better eye contact. I love all types of energy in dogs from high to low and getting to know each individual personality is very special to me and not something I take for granted.

Alex is awesome and you can tell he really cares about the animals that he is caring for. He communicated with me and sent pictures of my cats all weekend- he's great!

Alex was great and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. He was responsive, kept me updated, and the dogs were always happy around him. I would highly recommend Alex for any dog sitting/walking service!

Drop-In Visits • Dec 31, 2022

Alex really came through for me when another sitter dropped out last minute. He's flexible, communicative, and you can tell he really cares about the animals. My little dude wasn't as stressed as he normally is when I come home from a trip. Definitely recommend.

Dog Walking • Dec 16, 2022

Alexander was punctual and communicative for our last minute hour walk for Sal. He was patient in letting Sal feel him out before taking him out. Thank you very much!

My girlfriend and I are independent artists and we both are on Rover frequently working together when applicable, so I’m available to care for your animals anytime, as well as having a helping hand when needed. I like to bring my sketchbooks along with me or a few canvases if there’s an area I can paint in!
