Responsible, Reliable, Fun!

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 you would like to book me for house sitting, please note that my dog Gus will be coming with me so a meet and greet will be required then as well. Thanks!

Our dog Finley loves having Alexandra and her dog Gus come and play with her. Alexandra is very active with Finley, and Finley is well exercised and much calmer afterwards! Will definitely book again.

Alexandra took great care of our 9 y/o Boxer while we gone. She provided multiple updates with pictures! And Gus and Kingston got along great. Would book again!

Alexandra took great care of our dog while we were away for one night. Ellen had so much fun playing with Alexandra's pooch Gus. I felt very comfortable with Alexandria, who sent photos and videos, and checked in frequently. I strongly recommend her, and would hire her again.
