Availability

I'm home full-time this year while I build my own business, so your dog has constant company — no commute, no daycare drop-offs, no long stretches alone. I'm flexible on pickup and drop-off times, including evenings, early mornings, weekends, and holidays. Walks, yard time, and play run on your dog's schedule, not mine. I was a trader for a decade both in the US and Asia so too late / too early doesn’t exist to me :)

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog stays in a quiet Cohasset home with a yard for play and potty breaks throughout the day + secure porch for sun bathing! My 5yr old golden retriever, Oscar, is gentle with humans, well- socialized, and great with other dogs (he LOVES everything and everyone) — happy to do a meet-and- greet before we confirm booking to make sure everyone's a good match, or not. I’m happy if you and your pet are comfortable, that’s it. I follow your feeding, medication, and exercise routine exactly as you'd do at home, send photo updates daily, and can crate if that's part of your dog's normal routine. Smoke-free and calm environment. We have endless routes for adventures (and swimming, if cleared by you)!

Information Alexander K. would like to know about your pet

I am of course biased toward one particular golden, but have had multiple dogs over my life and having lived in the Seaport and also a few blocks from Central Park in NYC, I can say “I have seen and love them all!” with confidence!

A typical day

I love nature as much as any dog I have ever met. I always like to spend some time letting animals get a feel for me and my home / yard on day one. We have so many great trails available to us that I try to mix it up to make sure no one gets bored lol.

Lifelong dog parent. Home all day!

Pet care experience

I've raised dogs and cats my entire life — goldens, Bernese mountain dogs, labs, and mixes — and I'm completely devoted to animals. After a decade as an institutional trader, I'm taking a year to focus on my own business and on what I love most: caring for dogs every day. That background means I'm reliable, calm under pressure, and disciplined about medication schedules, feeding routines, and clear daily updates (and great at handling unique client needs). Comfortable with puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and high-energy breeds.

Alex is super friendly and obviously loves dogs! Our pup came home happy and exercised. Will definitely be using Alex’s services again!

Alexander was a wonderful host to our two dogs. He took our younger pup on long walks daily and made sure that our older pup was well cared for as well. One of our dogs had a minor health concern while we were on vacation and Alexander was totally on top of it and even offered to take our pup to our vet. He truly cared for our pups as if they were his own. You can completely tell that he adores dogs. At pick-up our dogs were so happy. Thank you so much, Alexander for loving on our dogs so well! We will most definitely reach out to you again!

Alex was great!!! He took excellent care of our 11 year-old golden retriever while we were out of town. He kept us updated with messages and pictures which was so comforting. Will definitely seek Alex out in the future!

I felt SO comfortable leaving Gracie with Alex after spending 5 minutes talking with him at drop-off. He posted pics and sent positive feedback and I would absolutely recommend Alex (and Oscar!) as caregivers. We will definitely be calling next time we're out of town...THANK YOU!

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.
