Dedicated Doggy Dude

Pet care experience

I've always had a dog in my family and was the volunteer to walk and feed them. I've had experience with puppies, cats, big dogs, and little dogs. I love fun and active dog. I can take your dog on a hike/run/beach day, or I can chill with them at home and work on my writings. I treat dogs like their people so I talk to them about my day and interpret what they want today. I do sometimes spoil a dog with leftover sandwich meat, but I would only ask the owner first. I have a car so I can drive to you and your dog, or take them to my large house with a yard and 5 minutes away from the beach! I think my favorite part about dog sitting is exploring with the doggos and letting them lead me to new and exciting places.

Loved that he was able to sit my Logan in a short notice. He is nice and Logan didnt want to leave was upset. I would definitely recommend him and would use his service again!

Alex is an ideal companion for your furry friend while you’re away or at work. I just moved up to Santa Cruz and he has made my dog Dexter super happy and comfortable not to mention getting all his energy out on walks and dog parks and love. I plan on using him as long as I am able as Dexter enjoys his company. Alex is amazing with Dexter and I am fortunate to have found such an amazing caretaker for my baby. I strongly recommend him to anybody that has A hard time finding A+ Care for their dog. He has an amazing connection with animals and provides the support and care needed to make me feel secure in letting him be was someone other than myself. I strongly recommend him for all your dog care needs.

Alex is a very reliable and responsible young man who took great care of our dog, Jack. Alex made sure that our dog was safe and happy on their walks together.

Alexander took great care of my pug Cookie for a week! He was flexible with his schedule and sent me pictures/updates everyday. My pug is very active, so Alexander took the time to take her on lots of wonderful excursions. He took Cookie on beautiful hikes and brought her to the beach often. Many dog sitters in the past haven't been able to keep up with my dogs energy but Alexander exceeded my expectations in satisfying my dogs need to run around. Cookie will definitely be staying with Alexander again :)
