I have been a stay at home wife and mother since 2021. My day starts with letting my dog out to potty after the long night then straight to feeding my dog and indoor cat. I then go and check on all my tanks, counting critters, making sure everyone in tanks is good and turning lights on. My dog goes out several times a day and outside of errands and the occasional day out with friends, I am always home to make sure there are plenty of potty breaks. In the evenings I feed all the tank critters, and double check to make sure everyone is well before I shut tank lights off and feed my dog and cat. Finally, my dog goes potty 1 last time before bed!

Safety, trust & environment
I do hace a fully fenced in backyard but anytime we leave the property, we ensure all pets are leashed. I do not let my dog outside unsupervised and no dog in my care will ever be outside unsupervised for any amount of time regardless of the fence. I have 3 cameras for my backyard that i minitor constantly as well. I belive in always leashing a pet in public and never approaching other pets whether it be with or without a leashed pet of your own. If a dog is a known puller on walks, i do prefer to walk with a slip lead. I do have crates in the home along with built in gates. During boarding, my dog stays in the bedroom and office areas, and our guest dogs stay in the living areas. Any dogs in my care must be up to date on all vaccinations and flea medication, must not jump gates or fences, and must be crate trained and potty trained. These are all for safety reasons and to make sure things go as smoothly as possible for everyone involved.

Information Alexandra L. would like to know about your pet
Its important for me to know of any dietary restrictions, allergies, medication, or any health issues they might have. As a pet parent of 2 pets who have special medical needs, I understand just how important this is. Another important thing for me to know is any behavioral issues that might come about, if there are any issues around leash tugging and pulling, or if they are known runners. Other things like barrier aggression or resource gaurding is also very important to know so I am able to set us both up for a successful time. I typically do like to walk dogs I'm unfamiliar with their regular collar and leash, and a slip lead for extra security. Once I become more familiar with a dog, if possible, I will walk them on their standard leash and collar and potentially get out the 15ft leash for parks if we have a great relationship! Please let me know if they are or aren't allowed treats. I typically give freeze dried chicken breast or beef liver. I like to stick to 1 ingredient treats if possible!
A typical day
I am willing to go on walks, set up puzzle feeders, throw the ball, play a game of tug or even just snuggle on the couch for a bit if that's what they want to do. Every dog is different with different needs and desires and I'm willing to get to know your furbaby to accommodate their needs!

Pet care experience
I used to work in the pet grooming industry from 2013-2021 bathing dogs and making sure the dogs in the daycare were being watched, taken care of, and having all the enrichment they need. I am willing to bathe and blow out dogs depending on size and fur type for a fair cost if you ask! I do have all equipment including a forced air dryer and I always have fabric on hand for bandanas 🥰 I dont have the service listed as I simply dont feel it fair for smaller dogs or dogs with short hair to overpay with the only option being 1 price. I have a dog and cat of my own and understand body language and behavior in both dogs and cats. I rescue my pets and typically grab the ones that may be overlooked and passed up. All my pets, including my late dog, the lab in photos, all have medical needs and requirements ranging from gastrointestinal issues to neurological. I am familiar and comfortable with giving medication. Its very important for me that my pets are in excellent health so I completely get it when an owner is not wanting extra snacks or a walk to be skipped! As someone who recently experienced a senior dog in my home, i am very understanding and patient with elderly pets. I am also in the hobby of fish keeping and have some exotic critters like hermit crabs 💞

Reviews
Alexandria takes great care of my two boys! She’s very punctual and communicative and sends tons of pictures. She visits daily for midday check ins while I’m at work. I can tell she’s spending good, quality time with my dogs, because they are still tired when I get home at the end of the day :-) I would highly recommend Alexandria as a pet sitter!
