Pet care experience

Happy human seeking dog walking

From family pets and friends' pets to having a dog of my own, I have had the pleasure of spending time with some pretty incredible animals. Born and bred in Boston and a true lover of New England, your animals could not be in better hands. I pride myself on hard work and determination, so rest assured you will come home to a very tired and happy family member. Caring for your animal is my utmost priority. Whether you need short or long visits, I will quickly become a trusted provider of animal care and your pet’s new best friend.

House Sitting • Jul 10, 2026

Alex took great care of our Goldendoodle puppy, Charlie! He was very attentive to her schedule, our house training efforts, etc. It was also clear that he really loves dogs and shows them great affection. And he’s a great communicator — very responsive when we were trying to schedule this housesitting and also during the visit by sending pictures & videos.

Alex takes care of my cats with care. He is follows instructions well and is reliable. He makes time to play and interact with them. He sends adorable photos of my cats on his visits. The girls love him. He cleans everything well during every visit. When I need to travel, I have confidence Alex is providing care and attention to my fur babies.

Hello! I have had the privilege of witnessing Alex provide utmost care and attentiveness to several dogs during their walks. I have even witnessed him do this for multiple dogs at the same time. He treats his animals with the same care and love he would if their owners were along for the walk, and Alex happens to be a gifted runner who is able to tucker out even the most active of dogs with a calmness and assertiveness that allows the pets to relax and accept him quickly into the pack. He is trustworthy, and demonstrates a high degree of responsibility with the pets and families he serves.

Alex does a great job and is reliable & consistent. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker. He is a very responsive and trustworthy person. As someone who used to work for me at a corporation I have nothing but positive things to say about him and his performance.

Alex is the kindest and sweetest dog sitter, walker, whisperer, we have had. He is prompt and arrives with a great attitude and always excited to spend time with our dog. He is very in tune to what she needs and always let me know what they did and what or when she ate. Our dog is so excited when he arrives and after time spent with Alex she is tired and well loved.

A general list of behaviors is encouraged to keep your animal as happy, safe, and stress-free as possible. If you are trusting me with your dog, I would like to know if they are good with other dogs, their desired duration of physical activity, and their temperament. Tags for designated dog parks are highly encouraged if you would like me to take them, and I can also shift plans to personalize the experience for your dog(s).
