Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety and trust while caring for pets in their homes. I ensure a familiar routine, provide regular check-ins, and maintain a clean environment. If needed, I can also stay overnight to house sit, giving pets the comfort of having someone with them. I’m attentive to their needs and follow specific instructions from pet owners to ensure they feel secure and happy while I care for them :)

Information Alexandra C. would like to know about your pet

I like to know as much as possible to give each pet the best care! It helps to know things like: – Their usual routine (feeding, walks, sleep) – Any health conditions, medications, or allergies – How they react to other dogs, strangers, or loud noises – Favorite toys, quirks, or things they dislike – Crate trained? Leash reactive? Any training cues they know?

A typical day

I love making sure pets are happy and engaged while their owners are away. Depending on the dog’s personality and energy level, I can take them on walks, play fetch, tug-of-war, or have some relaxing cuddle time. I also enjoy incorporating enrichment activities like puzzle toys or basic training games to keep their minds active. For lower-energy dogs, just some chill time with pets and gentle play is perfect too!

Pet Care from Vet Clinic Experience

Pet care experience

With years of experience working in a veterinary clinic and fostering pets, I’m now expanding from sitting for friends and family to offer my care to a wider community. I provide personalized attention for each pet, including seniors and those with special needs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, from pills to topical treatments. I also have experience caring for homes with multiple pets of different kinds. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for your pets while you’re away.

Alexandra was great with the dogs. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again. Sophie and Luna loved all the attention. Alexandra provided lots of updates.

Alexandra was great with our bulldogs. She kept them busy with short walks and hung out with them. They were happy and obviously well cared for when we got home.

Alex is an incredibly caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable individual who always puts my pets' well-being first. As a pet mom with specific requests, I can always count on her to go above and beyond in meeting my expectations. I trust Alex completely with my fur babies whenever I'm away, and they adore her just as much. With many pets, I appreciate how she tailors her care to each one’s unique needs. She’s also incredibly dependable and values a person's time, making her someone I can always rely on.

I always have Alex house sit for us when we are away. My dogs and cat love her! They get so excited whenever she comes over! I know when I have her house sitting for us that my babies will be in good hands!
