Alex was absolutely the best, I would book with her again INSTANTLY. She was perfect for all 3 of my pups, she took care of them as if they were her own. She was really respectful and responsive to all of my texts.

I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about Alexandra She took such amazing care of my dogs, Moose and Rocco while I was away on vacation, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring hands. One of my dogs is diabetic and requires insulin, and Alexandra went above and beyond by taking the time before our trip to learn how to properly administer his injections. That meant so much to me and gave me tremendous peace of mind while we were away. My dogs absolutely loved her! She was incredibly kind, patient, loving, and attentive to them. She also kept me updated every day with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated. I am so grateful for the care she gave my dogs and will definitely continue using her services for future vacations, drop-in visits, and even occasional playtime. I highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring to look after their pets! Elizabeth

We loved having Allie with our 2 small dogs while we were away for our 11 day vacation! We appreciated getting daily messages and photos of our pups having a great time. Our house and dogs were well cared for- it seems like they really miss having her here! She was able to work remotely and stay over with our dogs, which was perfect for their routine. They had their usual walks and play time, meal times, treats, etc. while she was staying with them. We had multiple deliveries, trash days and an interior painter visiting during our trip, and she managed all of that easily. We would definitely use her again!

This text box isn't big enough to explain how much we love Allie and feel so safe knowing she's with our pet!!! Allie has been watching our cat for us for years now and is not only our cat's favorite human but one of ours as well. She's amazing with animals, super communicative and always provides plenty of photos and videos when we're out and missing our fur baby! When you entrust someone with your pet the priority is always wanting them to feel loved and safe and Allie provides that and more. We come home from trips to a happy cat already missing her favorite sitter and friend. Aliie is an incredible pet sitter, dog walker, + animal lover and we cannot recommend her enough!

Alexandra has watched our family of pets on many occasions. She is kind and compassionate and treats the animals as if they are her own. Anyone looking for a relationship and caring person to watch their beloved animals should hire Alexandra… you’ll never worry about them.

Allie has taken care of my baby frenchie Suki and she is sooooo lovely!! She has a lot of knowledge and puts your pet in complete care. She truly treats them as if they were her own which is something that’s important to me. If you have a French bulldog she also knows all their unfortunate issues and takes that into account while watching them! There is really no one else I would trust with my pup other than her!
