Information Alexandra C. would like to know about your pet

I’m excited about the opportunity to care for your fur baby! To ensure I provide the best possible experience for your pet, I’d love to gather some information ahead of time. Knowing more about pet's routines, preferences, and any special needs will help me prepare and make their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. Could you please provide details on the following? 1.Daily Routine: What does your pet's typical day look like? (feeding times, walk schedules, playtime) 2.Dietary Needs: Are there specific feeding instructions or dietary restrictions I should be aware of? 3.Behavior and Temperament: How does your pet usually behave? Are there any quirks or behaviors I should know about? 4.Health and Medications: Does your pet have any medical conditions or require medication? If so, what are the administration details? 5.Favorite Activities: What activities does your pet enjoy the most? 6.Social Preferences: How does your pet interact with other pets and people? 7.Emergency Contacts: Who should I contact in case of an emergency? Understanding these details will help me tailor my care to meet your pet's specific needs and ensure a happy and comfortable experience.

A typical day

A typical day with me is filled with fun and engaging activities tailored to your pet’s preferences and energy levels. Here’s what a day might look like: Morning: Exercise and Playtime: We'll start the day with a refreshing walk around the neighborhood or a visit to a local park or a nice walk. For active pets, we might play fetch or have a run to burn off some energy. Breakfast: After our morning exercise, your pet will enjoy a nutritious meal, followed by some quiet time to relax and digest. Midday: Interactive Play: Midday is perfect for some interactive playtime. For dogs, this might include tug-of-war, puzzle toys, or training sessions to stimulate their minds. For cats, we’ll have fun with feather wands, laser pointers, and other engaging toys. Cuddle and Rest: After a fun play session, we’ll have some downtime with cuddles and petting, allowing your pet to rest and feel loved. Afternoon: Adventure Walk: We’ll go on another walk or outdoor adventure, exploring new sights and smells. If your pet enjoys socializing, we might visit a pet-friendly park to meet other furry friends. Snack Time: After our walk, your pet will get a healthy snack or treat. Evening: Relaxing and Bonding: The evening is for unwinding. We’ll have some gentle playtime or grooming sessions, depending on what your pet enjoys. Dinner: Your pet will have their evening meal, followed by some quiet time to relax and wind down for the night. Throughout the day, I’ll ensure your pet receives plenty of love, attention, and care. I always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you know your pet is happy and well-cared for while you’re away.

Pet care experience

As a lifelong pet owner with two cats and two dogs of my own, I understand the unique needs and personalities of both felines and canines. My hands-on experience includes: *Potty Training Puppies: I've successfully potty trained multiple puppies, employing patience and positive reinforcement to ensure a smooth transition for both the pets and their owners. *Comprehensive Pet Care: Having cared for cats and dogs my entire life, I am well-versed in their daily needs, from feeding and grooming to exercise and playtime. *Customized Attention: I believe every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to suit each individual animal's personality and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. *Reliable and Responsible: My personal commitment to my own pets' well-being translates into the care I provide for yours. I am dedicated to offering a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for all animals in my care. What sets me apart is my deep-rooted passion for animals and my extensive, hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing the love and attention they deserve.

Alexandra was fantastic! My rescue kitties are very shy but they loved Alexandra on day 1! The kitties have specific diets and meds and Alexandra did a terrific job preparing every meal and cleaning all the cat dishes. She spent time with both cats on each visit and always shared updates and photos so I knew the cats were happy and well-fed. I highly recommend Alexandra and will rebook her every time I need to be out of town.

Alexandra is amazing! She's very professional and our cat kiddos took a liking to her immediately. Alexandra is a reliable cat sitter who took great care of Joey and Ramen. She was always on time. She even accommodated our multiple requests to check a few things at home while we were gone. Alexandra, you are very much appreciated! ❤️

So glad to have found Alexandra! She really was wonderful. We got a new topical medication for our kitty we had never done before and she was able to give it to him along with his pill despite others having trouble in the past. She was just so caring with our boy and very communicative. Thank you Alexandra!
