Pet/Outdoor loving VetMed Student

Pet care experience

I have worked for several pet sitting/walking companies over the years, and love every second of it. My passions in life are animals and the love of outdoors. I took my passion for animals one step further and decided to go to veterinary school. I am currently a 3rd year veterinary student at Virginia Techs Veterinary Medical School. I have many experiences with animals including, walking/sitting pets, working in veterinary hospitals, volunteering at local shelters, and have had all types of pets of my own. As a veterinary student, I am equipped for any needs your pet might have including special needs pets, medication administration, etc. I am also trained in animal CPR and first aid. Small or large, pets are my passion in life, and I make it my goal to ensure that all pets get the best care and love they deserve. I can't wait to meet your pet!

Alexandra took great care of our dog. Went on lots of walks, got lots of cuddles and quality time, played and made a lot of new friends. Marvel had the best time with her! Thanks a lot Alexandra!

Alexandra did a great job with our dog! We would definitely use her services again! What we liked is that her own dogs are trained well, and so she was able to maintain our dog's training. She was very good at communicating, both concerns and updates, which was really helpful for our family (especially our kids, who missed our dog). She also helped him get the exercise he needed. He was very happy to stay with her, and it gave us peace of mind while we were on our trip.

Alexandra is the perfect person to care of your fur babies! She is responsible, caring, and hardworking. Between being a dog mom herself and being a student in vet school, she has more than enough experience and passion for caring for dogs. Her dog Molly is spoiled and very well cared for. I personally am very picky about who I let take care of my dogs and Alexandra is someone that I know I can trust to do that!

Alex is the most responsible and loving dog caregiver I have ever met. I would trust her in any situation with my dogs. She is currently in vet school, so you know her dogs are in good hands
