My old pet sitter told me that she was going to relocate and Alex step right in and did a great job of taking care of my little senior fur baby while I was away on business. Thank you Alex for giving me a peace of mind while I was away 😊.

Alex took care of my three cats like they were literally her own. My boys love her and I just know they looked forward to her coming over every morning and evening. She sent pictures of them playing and even videos every single time. It would be hard to trust anyone other than Alex with my precious furrbabies.

Alexandra is amazing. I’m afraid to leave more good reviews in case she might become unavailable due to her popularity. But I’ll do it anyway. She is kind and diligent and thoughtful.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work full time but I partially work from home and on the days I am on site, my office is less than a mile from my home. So I’m always home for lunch to take my own dogs on a walk. Note: for afternoon drops ins m-f, please note I only have an hour lunch break so I’m limited to how far I can go and prefer staying in the Independence area. Exceptions can occasionally be made, just let me know the situation.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety for pets comes first: boarders must be *cat friendly*, all boarders must also be *up to date on vaccines* and have *flea & tick preventative*. This is for their well-being as well as safety for my animals. I do not have fenced in yard but my neighborhood is quiet and there’s a large park across the street ideal for walks. I have two senior dogs (both 14 and love going on walks, also very cat friendly) of my own who are very sweet and chill, great company for your furry friend. I do have a spare bedroom that could be used if anyone needed their own time. Mine is a very pet friendly home, my furniture is theirs and snuggles in bed are welcomed. I also have cats and two aquariums.

Pets

My dogs are used to 3 long walks a day (morning, at lunch, and in the evening), a big house to play in, and nearby dog parks.

What your pet likes & doesn’t, any quirks, behaviors, medications that I should know beforehand. If your dog is cat friendly/gets along with other dogs, their vet contact info, and if they are up to date on shots and on flea/tick preventative.
