I care for my own dog Sage and my two cats on a daily basis. I also care for my mother’s pittie mix occasionally. Due to my full time job being at a school - I am completely off work during the summer. During the school year, I’m available weekday evenings and weekends.

About Alexandra J.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
For drop-ins, I am willing to feed your pet, engage in some play time or snuggles, let them outside to go potty or go for a quick walk with them. I have experience giving some medications to animals (insulin, antibiotics). For boarding, we have a separate room away from our other animals that is adjacent to our backyard (fenced-in). One night stay includes feedings, medication administration if needed, one walk and four/five potty breaks. I will also make sure to give them lots of love and playtime.
Information Alexandra J. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any behavioral issues or medical issues/dietary restrictions. Also I would love to know if your pet is generally friendly towards strangers or if they are more cautious/shy. If they have a favorite toy/treat/activity please let me know!
A typical day
I love playing fetch and tug of war with dogs, with cats I like to use a laser pointer or wand toy. I adore snuggly animals and being affectionate. I also enjoy taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood (as long as they don’t drag me down the street, lol).

Pet care experience
I grew up with cats my entire life and I currently volunteer at Petsmart’s adoption center. I have a pitbull/shepherd mix and two cats of my own at home. Both my parents have large dogs that I adore and I often babysit them (one is a Pitbull mix and the other is a German Shepherd). I always had a special interest in all animals since I was very young and even aspired to be a veterinarian. Even though I did not end up becoming a veterinarian, animals are still a big part of my life. I am very patient and compassionate (I currently work at an elementary school as a School Psychologist). I think animals are some of the most beautiful, purest souls on this planet. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s individual personality :)
Reviews
Alex took wonderful care of my 2 dogs and my cat!
Thank you so much for always showing up for little bear, this weekend I had a major family emergency and you were able to show up next day with no questions asked! You are the bomb and showed up for me and my little boy in such a pivotal time in my life, thank you Alex! <3
Thank you, this was are frist time using Rover and I'm grateful that we pick you. You are kind and welcoming and we really appreciate that. And you made me more comfortable with the pictures and videos you sent of ChaCha. Again thank you so much 😁
Alex was exactly what Little Bear and I needed for this weekend! I needed to go out of town for work and Alex was definitely a kind kindred spirit who both Little Bear and I welcomed and felt extremely comfortable with. After going through nightmares with cat sitting services, I believe Little Bear and I have found our forever cat sitter! She did an awesome job, her communication was on point, very resourceful, she was amazing with time management and most importantly my Little Bear felt comfortable with her from the very beginning! He didn't have to warm up to her and came out during our initial meeting. Alex, thank you so much we are so happy to have you as part of our care team!
