Can't wait to meet you and your dog

Pet care experience

I have a genuine love for animals, and my daughter shares the same passion. Throughout the years, I have gained around a decade of experience caring for dogs, both my own when I lived with my parents and those of friends and family. Recently, I discovered Rover through positive experiences shared by users on Reddit, and I hope to create similar positive stories. My daughter and I are excited to meet you and your furry companions, and witnessing my daughter's joy when interacting with your pet will make pet sitting all the more rewarding. It's important to note that I am fully Covid vaccinated, and my home is smoke-free. During your time away, I am more than happy to provide you with pictures and videos of your pet upon request, which can be conveniently sent through text or email. I am accessible via phone, text, or email, and I make it a priority to respond to your communications within the hour whenever possible. Even if my availability appears limited for your desired dates, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. In some cases, we may be able to accommodate special requests.

Safety, trust & environment

Ensuring the safety and trust of your beloved pet is my top priority. When taking your dog for walks around the community, I adhere to a strict leash policy, even if your dog is well trained. This provides an extra layer of security and prevents any unforeseen circumstances that may arise. Additionally, I am well-prepared to utilize dog crates when necessary. Whether it's for transportation or creating a secure and comfortable space for your pet, I understand the importance of providing them with a safe environment. Crating can help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation, especially during times when it may be beneficial for their well-being. Rest assured that I am committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for your pet, both in my home and at your residence. Their welfare and happiness are of utmost importance to me, and I will always take the necessary precautions to ensure their well-being throughout our time together.

Information Alexander K. would like to know about your pet

When it comes to caring for your beloved dog, certain information is essential to know ahead of time. This ensures that I can provide the best possible care and tailor activities to meet their specific needs. Here are a few important questions to consider: Food Aggressions: Does your dog display any food aggressions? It's important for me to be aware of any specific behaviors or triggers related to food to ensure a safe environment during meal times. Crate Training and Roaming Preference: Is your dog crate trained or do they prefer to roam freely? Understanding their comfort level with crates helps me provide them with a secure and appropriate space when needed. Barking Habits: Does your dog bark, and if so, how often? This information helps me understand their vocal tendencies, whether it's in response to the doorbell, when home alone, or due to unusual noises. It allows me to address their needs and provide a calm and peaceful environment. Exercise Routine: What is your dog's exercise routine? Knowing their preferred activities, energy levels, and any limitations helps me plan engaging exercise sessions that suit their needs and keep them happy and healthy. Experience with Children: Has your dog been around children? Understanding their familiarity and comfort level with kids allows me to provide appropriate interactions and ensure a safe and positive experience for both your dog and any children they may encounter. Lastly, but certainly not least, I am all about FUN! Is your dog ready to have a blast? I am committed to creating a joyful and entertaining experience for your furry friend. Their happiness and enjoyment are my top priorities, and together, we'll embark on adventures that will make tails wag and create wonderful memories.

A typical day

A typical day spent with your furry friend will be filled with fun activities and exciting outings. I am dedicated to providing regular exercise and mental stimulation for your dog. If needed, I am fully prepared to take your dog on walks every 2 hours throughout the day. We will explore my community, enjoying the fresh air and engaging in enjoyable exercise. Additionally, if you desire, I can also take your dog to the local dog park for some off-leash playtime and socialization. It's a wonderful opportunity for them to interact with other dogs and burn off extra energy in a safe and supervised environment. Furthermore, I am open to discovering new special places to go on walks with your dog. Whether it's a scenic trail, a nearby beach, or a peaceful park, I will find the perfect location that matches your dog's preferences and interests. Together, we will embark on adventures that not only provide exercise but also mental stimulation and enrichment. Rest assured that your dog's well-being and happiness are my utmost priorities. I will customize our activities to suit their needs and ensure that each day is filled with fun and engaging experiences.

Since the post-COVID period, I had been working from home full-time, allowing me to provide dedicated care for your pet throughout the day. However, my job has recently requested that I come into the office twice a week. The good news is that this schedule is flexible, and I can accommodate it around your needs as much as possible. Occasionally, I may need to step out for various reasons, such as a quick grocery run, grabbing a bite to eat, or dropping off/picking up my daughter from school. During these instances, I will either ensure your pet is comfortable at home if you have a suitable setup, or I can bring them along with me during the drive. Rest assured, I will make every effort to minimize any disruptions to your pet's routine and prioritize their well-being. Please let me know your preferred schedule and any specific instructions, and I will do my best to provide exceptional care for your furry friend.
