Information Alexandra D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how your dog is on leash and how well they get along with others. I always schedule a meet and greet first to make sure they are a good fit with Gus and maybe take them down the block together.

A typical day

Will take your pup on long walks or jogs. I would like to bring Gus on these walks but if you have a special request for a solo walk please let me know!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm a dog-mom of an energetic boxer, Gus. Gus is my first dog, but from a young age, I always walked dogs in the neighborhood. As an adult, I had over 4 years of experience with doggy roommates. I have experiences with many different personalities and sizes so I'm very comfortable with them. I am very active and love taking long walks or light jogs, just like your pup! Gus is also an excellent walking buddy who is good on the leash. I work from home Monday through Friday 9:00-5:00, so it's very easy for me to pop out before work, lunchtime, it after work to take a long walk. If it helps lighten the load when packing, I havethe following items already: Extra dog beds Dog bowls including a slow feeder Toys Feel free to pack these items if course if they will make your pup happier to have their own.

Alex is awesome! She is great with our two pups each week and very caring and considerate on each walk. She is very communicative and takes great photos in her daily updates. 10/10!

My pup had a great time with Alexandra and Gus. As a fur parent to a senior dog, I really appreciated Alexandra going above and beyond to make Rum comfortable. He also got all of his meds on schedule which was an also a plus. Will definitely book again!

Alexandra has been awesome! She’s been great with our two pups and they bonded with her right away. She’s extremely responsive and very detailed with looking after our doodles. We already booked another walk with her, it’s a great piece of mind to have her looking after them!
