Pet care experience

No pet is too big or small.

I grew up around dogs, all of which were mixed medium to large breeds adopted from local shelters. As a teenager, I would walk, bathe, and watch dogs from as small as a chihuahua to as large as a great dane. As an adult, I expanded to watching pets in their own home as well. Have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, including puppies and senior dogs. I also have experience watching cats as well, and am quick to learn when they want attention and when they prefer to be given their space.

Safety, trust & environment

I will do my best to minimize disruptions to your pet's schedule and make sure they still recieve the love and attention they need. Walk, meal, and treat times will be met on schedule. I will play with your pets with any toys provided, along with giving ear scritches, belly rubs, or any other attention or space your pet prefers. Let me know of any training your pet might be learning so that I can use proper commands to avoid confusion in your pet. Available for both short and long walks. For longer stays, I also have experience in caring for both indoor and outdoor plants.

Alex is a fantastic dog walker! He came promptly at the same time each day and gave my pup a nice long walk within the half hour. He paid great attention to my dog’s needs and took some very cute pics along the way! Highly recommend!

Alexander stepped up while I was dealing with an unexpected family emergency. Knowing Kermit was in kind capable hands was a huge relief in a chaotic time and one less thing to worry about. Alexander kept me updated, sent wonderful photos and I didn’t once have to worry or wonder if Kermit was happy and healthy. Alex even was able to accommodate a lengthened booking. I can’t express enough how wonderful Alexander is with my little guy and how communicative and accommodating he has been with me. I can’t thank you enough Alex!

Let me know of any special needs, dietary requirements, medications, grooming requirements, or ongoing behavior training I need to know about. Information on what they have for meals and treats, what times they are used to eating, walking, playing, going to the bathroom, and any other details relevant to your pet would be appreciated. If there is an ongoing medical condition, let me know what needs to be monitored, documented, or if there are any updates you would need me to provide you. Name and location of their vet, along with any potential local emergency contacts you would like me to contact as well if necessary.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
