Pet care experience
My name is Alexandra and I have been around household pets my whole life, and loved each and everyone. I have taken care of puppies and older dogs before and know how to clean up properly after a cat or dog. I have also had experience with a dog having seizures and know how to take care of them during and after the seizure. Willing to brush and bath cats and dogs, with experience in my personal time. I love helping people and animals as it gives me a sense of real satisfaction and that I made a little bit of difference in this world. I hope that you give me a chance to show you how I can help make you and your animal's life easier.
Reviews
Was very upset with the care of our senior dog. 1. there was little to no communication while we were away. We reached out numerous times with either no answer or no update on the dog or photos. It was quite odd considering she was supposed to be at the house all weekend 2. When we arrived home our dog was in obvious physical discomfort. So much so we took her to the vet the next day. She can barely walk now which was not the case when we left her. I am extremely disappointed that there was no communication that our dog was injured or in pain. Would not recommend
This is our fifth time with Alexandra and it was for 9 days. She did a great time once again.
Alex did a wonderful job staying at our home and caring for Penny. We came home to a clean house and a relaxed dog. Our flights home were delayed and she texted to see if we needed her to go back and let Penny out. Her genuine caring for our pet was obvious.
It's our 4th time working with Alexandra and she was great once again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I would go to the pets home and as such they usually feel the environment is comfortable and safe. I let animals come to me until needed or I have gained trust.
Information Alexandra D. would like to know about your pet
I try to always remember to act the ways your pet feels the most comfortable. If I am showed how to take care of any special needs or behavior I will be confident to take care of them. I take note of any information that would be helpful to make your pet as comfortable as possible.
A typical day
I like to listen to music as I play with animals, tug of war, laser toys, keep away, etc.., or just a good petting. When appropriate I like to let dogs sniff around as they want but still get any energy out. I like to go to Deering Park, or other parks and trails near your place.
