Trainer & Enrichment Specialist
Pet care experience
I have over 25 years of personal and 15 years of professional dog experience including working in a doggie daycare, as a professional walker, and as a trainer including working with police and rescue dogs, sled dogs, working farm dogs, service dogs, and companion dogs. I also have cat, large mammal/farm, and exotics experience and am extremely comfortable in their care and enrichment including associated feeding. I am happy to work with pups with behavioral needs. I work using distraction techniques, praise and treat rewards, redirection, modeling, and alternative behavior. I can also work with dogs with medical needs including providing medication while you are away. Please let me know if your pup has a scheduled veterinary visit while you are away so I can make sure I can accommodate the appointment. I believe dogs are part of the family, and while you're away whether for vacation or work, you deserve the peace of mind knowing your pup is every bit loved and cared for as if you were still home. New clients, please reach out a week or more in advance so we can schedule a meet and greet to ensure my routine and home is the best fit for your buddies!
Reviews
Great job, as always. Alexandra spent a lot of quality time with our two cats, taking excellent care of them.
Alexandra, once again, has done a wonderful job caring for both of our cats. They are well-fed and the litter boxes are always cleaned. Additionally, she has bonded very well with our one cat who is a snuggler, and gives her lots of affection and pets. We unreservedly recommend Alexandra.
Thank you Alex for doing an amazing job with Kibby. I was totally at peace knowing she was in great care. Thank you for everything!
Alexandra is…as always….absolutely the best! She spends such great quality time with our demanding and loving geriatric cat. They have bonded beautifully and talk, snuggle, and have lovely visits. Alex has been very conscientious about keeping the litter boxes clean, always, and is very careful to be sure our older cat always has her prescribed food, and that is plentiful and fresh. We would recommend Alexandr if you are looking for a knowledgeable and completely caring person to care for your cat.
About Alexandra B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have been a trainer for several years. Over that time, I have learned and developed a style of communication with the pups in my care to ensure they have the space they need to feel safe whether that means we just do our own thing in your home together or we snuggle up tightly on the couch under a blanket! Every pet has different boundaries, and respecting those boundaries helps an animal feel safe in their homes.
Home
Information Alexandra B. would like to know about your pet
It helps me a ton to know what kinds of activities your pup likes as well as any allergies or medical needs he or she may have. I have experience and am able to give oral, rectal, subcutaneous, and intramuscular medications as needed. Topical medication and basic wound care are within my realm of experience and comfort as well. Some pups have a very set routine. Please let me know what your pup's routine is so I can ensure my availability to meet your pup's needs. My exact schedule flexes depending upon the week due to holidays and previously scheduled dog care bookings.
A typical day
I love to be outside as much as possible! If your pup is accustomed to daily walks or has other exercise needs, please be sure to let me know ahead of time, and I can make sure that they are accommodated!

Availability
I work full time out of an office during the week, but I have weekends and banking holidays free where I enjoy taking pups up the mountain or to the park to get out of the house (or can spend more time at home if your critters don't like to leave). My exact schedule each week is dependent on other bookings.
