Hello, I’m Alex and I’ve been a dog owner for 15 years. I have a doctorate in pharmacy and recently stepped away from practicing in the retail setting to work from home in a job that offers a lot of flexibility and free time. I have 2 golden retrievers, one is a retired service dog. I’m professional, punctual and extremely reliable. I’ve dated a professional dog trainer for several years and have done some (limited) dog training myself as well. Happy to help any way I can from walks to play time to watering plants and anything in between. You tell me what you need and I will make it happen. When you book with me you can do so with the confidence your animal will be in good hands, I will show up when I say I will show up and I will do what I say I will do. I’ve used Rover to book pet sitters and had good and bad experiences and know what it’s like trying to find a trustworthy person to love your animal like their own, I’m that person and I look forward to working with you! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Boarding and House Sitting Rates are for a 24hr period (i.e. if you drop-off at 7am on Friday then pick-up is at 7am on the day of your return). If you don’t return until the evening, additional charges will apply. These can be discussed at time of booking. I’m very reasonable and flexible within a few hours however a full day of additional care will be charged for boarding plus a day of daycare. Also, when you board with me my 2 golden retrievers will be here. They’ve never met a dog they don’t get along with, they’re almost 9yrs old and laid back, but just be aware I’m a dog owner myself!
