Outdoors, active dog lover

Pet care experience

Hi all! My name is Alex and I am have been pet sitting dogs for over 18 years! I have been around dogs since I got my first chocolate lab, Molly, as a child. I was unable to get another dog after Molly passed because I was in away at college. Instead I began volunteering at 2 different animal shelters where I would go a few times a week to walk, feed, bathe and give the dog the attention he or she very much needed. Along with my volunteering, I pet sit and often board dogs. Hopefully, in the future I will save up enough money to have a dog of my own again. I'm honest, trustworthy and full of energy. I work as a personal trainer and yoga instructor so I have the energy level to keep up with your loved one(s).

Best dog sitter on the upper east side!!! Alexandra has watched my dog several times now when I’ve had to travel for work and it has been such a great experience each time. She is professional, responsible and caring. I highly recommend her for any dog sitting or walking needs!!

Alex is a loving and attentive person - she loves all animals! I can't recommend her highly enough as a dog sitter. She is also 100% reliable and trustworthy.

I can confidently and happily recommend Alexandra for any endeavor. She is reliable, hardworking, trustworthy and compassionate. In addition to all that, she's a delightful person and an animal-lover. She has been a pet sitter and/or walker for others besides me, and everyone I know has been very happy with her care of their pets. I've never heard any complaints. Again, I wholeheartedly recommend Alexandra. She's extremely responsible, and a pleasure to know!

Alex was a wonderful sitter for my beloved German Shepard named Zeus on multiple occasions. She was already a friend of mine and didn't hesitate to watch him when I first asked her to do so on a holiday weekend. I left her a list explaining certain tendacies he had such as standing with him when he eats and making sure he has a tree or bush to hide behind when he pees/poops because of his shyness. She told me everything went according to plan and Zeus had no problem with her watching him. She was very accommodating when it came to giving me status updates and sending me photos/videos of Zeus. Whenever I went to pick him up he was always in good spirits and even seemed content with staying with her longer. Zeus has gotten very used to her and always runs up to give her some love whenever he sees her. Alex will always remain my first choice when it comes dog sitting Zeus and sending referrals. Thank you for being such a wonderful sitter for Zeus and I'm sure other owners will continue to give you the wonderful compliments you deserve.
