Safety, trust & environment

My day genuinely revolves around animal care. My plans are structured around my dog, my vacations structured around my dog, my friends chosen by who my dog likes. :) My girl loves cuddling on my couch or in bed and loves having activities to do like puzzles, Kongs, frozen lick mats, etc. We love taking long long walks or hikes. She is my best friend and I treat her as such. She was a traumatized rescue who has taken a lot of time, and will continue to do so. However, I have given her time, attention, training, desensitization, ect. to ensure she gets the happiest and most comfortable life possible. I plan to treat every animal in my care with the same level of attention and love. The animal is always my #1 priority and concern, even before my own. My dog always eats and goes to the potty before I do! I know every animal is different, and I am happy to listen to individualized needs, concerns, and requests to give the best care possible.

Information Alexandra L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your animal has individualized needs or quirks I should be aware of! Please also let me know if there are behaviors they are not trained with. For example, if they chew, get into trash, don't like their paws touched, pull on leash, ect.

A typical day

I can provide whatever care is best, personalized to each animal! Depending on what your dog/cat likes, we can go on walks, play tug of war, wrestle, cuddle, train, ect.!

Pet care experience

I have never gone a day of my life without caring for an animal. I've had dogs and cats growing up, rode horses, helped on the farm, etc. I recently cared for my childhood Lab (day in day out) and she made it to 16 years old. I also fully trained my Mom's golden retriever from 8 weeks old. I have my own rescue dog now, and she has come so far in training! I have done a semester internship with a Vet Clinic as well. I truly love caring for and spending time with animals and will treat any animal with love and kindness, whatever their needs are.

Alex is the best! She is very communicative about your pets needs and will make sure they are taken care of during your time away.

I highly recommend Alexg as a pet caregiver. Alex has been around dogs her entire life and has a natural ability to connect with animals of all kinds. Her genuine love for pets is evident in the way she cares for them, always ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether caring for a playful puppy, a senior dog, or any animal in between, Alex is patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. She treats every animal as if it were her own and can be trusted to provide dependable, compassionate care. Any pet owner would be fortunate to have Alex looking after their furry family members. 🐾
