Dog lover, cat lover, people lover.

Pet care experience

I've had my dog for ten years and care for her like no other. I have experience pet sitting for dogs, cats (and even reptiles!) as my sister owns all of the above. I have experience with all kinds of dogs from Chihuahuas to Huskies, so I can handle all sized and personalities.

Alex is great with pets! Alex's own dog is well-trained, gets on well with other dogs and people, and fun. Alex has cared for put bulls, wolf hybrids, golden retrievers, corgis, many mixed breeds, cats, snakes, and bearded dragons. He is good with feeding schedules, exercise time, play time, and especially petting time.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently can't take clients where I'm staying as it's on campus, but I'm respectful of other folks homes and their animals' spaces when visiting and pet sitting. Your animal will have my full attention when in my care!

Information Alexander H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance of any reactiveness or triggers dogs or cats may have and whether they're more friendly or reserved. I respect animal boundaries and if cats need their space or dogs want to play I'm good with both and anything in between.

A typical day

I love playing games with dogs and stimulating cats with play and treats. I can take most dogs on runs if needed and can help if you're training them on basic commands (sit, stay, wait, lie down, etc.)

I'm currently studying in college out of my home state and living in the dorms, so I have a strict schedule to stick to during the day but drop ins, and walks can work in my schedule occasionally and I'm more than happy to house-sit! Hours I am unavailable are typically 9-5 Monday and Thursday, 10-3 Tuesday, 8-5 Wednesday and 10-6 Friday.
