Dedicated and reliable animal lover

Pet care experience

At the age of 9 I joined the 4-H K-9 Kids in Westchester County, New York. We would train our dogs weekly and then show them at the state fair each year. At the age of 14, I became president of the club and helped organize our local fairs. My poodle, Gingi, won a few blue ribbons at those fairs and we had such a great time together. In the summers between college semesters at University of Michigan, I cared for three dogs in Yonkers. I would take them to the park every day and then keep them company for the rest of the day. It was really wonderful. I also say hello to every dog I see and ask their owners if I can pet them. I'm a true animal lover and would love to take care of your dog!

I couldn't ask for a better sitter. Alexandra has a beautiful personality that made me feel at ease. You could sense her genuine love of animals and her professionalism was top notch. I highly recommend her.

Could there be a more perfect person for this job? No only is she obsessed with dogs, she also has the perfect mix of compassion and responsibility that would make her an excellent dog sitter (or even a baby sitter!). Whoever scoops her up will be making a wonderful decision. All I can hope for are pictures of all the furry friends she watches. I will settle for descriptions. But please insist she send me pics!

Alex would be a great dog sitter to any dog in NYC! With years of experience owning a wide variety of dogs she would be adept at handling many different breeds. Alex also has experience handling multiple dogs at once so she is ready to handle any task. I would recommend Alex to anyone looking for a true dog lover to spend some time with your best furry friend!

Alexandra is a great dog sitter. She is extremely punctual and very reliable. She has a lot of experience handling and working with animals and I have never had any issues or complaints. She pays individual attention to my dog, instead of just doing group walks. She has a great overall demeanor and is very professional and trustworthy. She's also flexible, should any last minute changes come up. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends.

Information Alexandra L. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences, I love all dogs, big and small. I would like to know how well socialized your dog is: Can they play nice with other dogs? Are they fearfull of a certain type of person?

A typical day

I used to train my poodle, Gingi, agility and obedience so your dog and I could also enjoy that together. I would take them to the dog park (if you're comfortable with that) and then walk them all over Central Park. I love going on long walks and I'm a really active person!
