Love & Care for your pets as my own

Pet care experience

About Me: My pups are my world and nothing is better than coming home to that wagging tail after a day at the office. I have rescued and cared for 2 of my own dogs over the past 10 years and would do anything for them. My current fur baby is a 1 year old mix breed who has quite the personality. I have been to professional training with both of my dogs and am confident in my ability to love and care for your dog while you are away. I work full-time (M-F, 7:30am-4:30pm), and will spend my other hours with your pooch. I love walking and I know your dogs will enjoy joining me on our jaunts around the neighborhood. About My Client's Dogs: I have experience house and dog sitting for small, medium, and large dogs, all with different levels of obedience and am comfortable with most breeds of dogs. I am not best suited for overly aggressive dogs (regardless of breed). I love my repeat clients and look forward to you becoming one too! About My Dog Sitting Style: When you trust me to care for you dog they become my own and I will make sure they receive the best care possible. I will always leave your pups cared for and your home cleaner than you left it. If you have a specific way of handling your pet I will be happy to make sure I do the same, as I understand how important it is to be consistent in their training and daily routines. Does your dog love the beach or the park? If so I would be happy to take them there as well.

Thus was our first time using a pet sitter with our puppy, Toby. We were very happy with how easy it was to search for a sitter in our area and find one that worked for us. We were very happy with Alexandra! She was flexible with our schedule and put us at ease about leaving Toby for the first time. Toby and her dog Nico got along so well I thought Toby wouldn't want to come back home with us! We will definitely know where to turn when we need to go out of town again.

From the initial contact, throughout my dog's stay, Alex's communication was wonderful! She replied very quickly and answered any questions we had. Her dog Nico was the perfect playmate for my dog, Kai. Alex sent pictures and kept me updated on what the dogs were up to. I think Kai enjoyed herself and felt more comfortable in a home instead of a kennel. Overall, Alex was wonderful and I hope Kai gets to see Alex and Nico again in the future.

Alexandra is trustworthy, reliable, and responsible. I absolutely feel confident about her ability to show up when she has committed to and to love my pets as though they are her own. I would recommend anyone use her services!

I've been friends with Alexandra most of my life, for 25 years. She has always been a dog and animal lover. In sixth grade she begged her parents for a dog and they got BZ, a bichon frisée. As an only child, BZ was her best friend and like a sibling! In college, she wanted a dog of her own and adopted Bauer, a lab mix. I was impressed that she was taking on such a big responsibilty when most people our age were only thinking of themselves. Recently she adopted Nico, a pit mix, and she treats him like he is one of her children. She is loving to him, takes him to the dog beach and pretty much anywhere she goes. I would trust her to watch my dog and my child.
