Pet care experience

All animals are welcome☺️

PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL ANIMALS ARE KID FRIENDLY. I HAVE TWO CHILDREN AGES 9 AND 11 ! My name is Alexandra and am currently located in Rochester/Irondequoit area. I have grown up around all types of animals from cats to dogs, birds, reptiles and fish, even raising a puppy. The main animals I grew up around were both cats and dogs. In my past I have worked at an animal store and had some experience as a pet sitter also. I live with my daughter who is well behaved and also an animal lover. I presently only have two small caged cockatiel birds and am able to move them anywhere in the house if needed to provide more space or comfort for your pets. I am willing to work with other certain types of animals if interested please don’t hesitate to ask. I look forward to working together and meeting all of your animals!

Alexandra and her family took great care of my dog, Hiccup, while we were across the country. Very communicative, and flexible, including with a last minute flight delay that caused a late night pick up. They sent photos and videos and made sure to ask tons of clarification questions! We would definitely recommend.

Alexandra was great! She kept me updated with pictures and asked questions as needed. I could tell Sadie was being cared for well and it made my time away more enjoyable knowing I didn’t have to worry. Great pet sitter!

Lulu started throwing up on the way home on 4/30. She hasn’t been well since then…and it’s been 10 days. Not sure what the exact issue was, but there was no contact about her being unwell while she was boarded. Very little correspondence at all..unless I initiated. First time we’ve ever had this experience with boarding. Hope we didn’t break her forever.

Alexandra was great with our Goldendoodle. She came home happy and clearly well cared for. We were very happy with her stay!

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm and quiet environment. My neighborhood is also quiet and calm when taken outside for walks or to go to the bathroom. I make sure they do not interact with other animals outside of my home and the animals I do have in my home are small and caged in a separate room where the door is always closed. I do not have any other dogs or cats and I do not board from different people at the same time.

A typical day

I am able to take your pets for long walks, play with them both outside and inside and let them enjoy being outside relaxing in the backyard.

I would like to know if there is any type of sickness or aggressiveness from any of your pets so that I am able to take the proper precautions especially since I have children in my home. I also would like to know of any bad anxiety where it would make it hard for me to run errands around this time etc. Also any feeding schedule or types of foods they can/can not eat. *MUST GET ALONG WITH CHILDREN*
