Animal lover with flexible schedule

Pet care experience

I have a 12 year old collie dog of my own that I have helped raised since she was a puppy. I have a lot of experience with walking dogs of all ages and bring a tremendous amount of patience towards my approach with animals. I have also worked within a cat shelter and am friends with the two cats that live on my street. I look forward to treating your pet(s) with the love it deserves! I live close to cold spring park in Newton so would be happy to take your pets there to play/walk if they are capable. I am willing to work with dogs of all ages, breeds and needs, just let me know in advance if your dog has a specific trait I just be aware of.

For many years Alexandra has helped to take care of my energetic collie dog, and now that my dog is into her old age, she requires more hands-on care. Alexandra is exceptionally patient, gentle and kind when caring for my dog, and I feel confident and comfortable dropping my dog off with her. I know that her needs will be taken care of, and that she will have a fun and safe day. Alexandra herself is a generous and thoughtful person, who understands the importance of putting someone else's needs before your own. She is also a cat lover for those who have multiple furry family members! Alexandra is wonderful with animals, and I highly recommend her!

Information Alexandra H. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds of dogs; no preferences! Naturally I would like to know about any medications or medical conditions your dog has before I take them into care. I would also like to know the age of the dog if possible to gauge how much energy he/she will have.

A typical day

I live near two forests including Cold Spring Park. If your dog has a lot of energy I am happy to take them on the trails or play fetch with them in the fields (or whatever activity your dog likes to play). I have my own dog at home so if your dog doesn't have toys (but would like to play with some), my dog is more than welcome to share.
