On Rover since 2017!
Pet care experience
I'm ecstatic to have been apart of the Rover community since September 2017. After almost seven years, I have learned so much about pet care and continue to do so! I take pride in my work - I want to make sure your dog is cared for beyond your expectations. My experience is extensive and varied as far as different breeds, ages, and temperaments.
Reviews
Alexandra is the BEST! She has been dropping in for visits with our shy girl Willa for a couple of months now and her ability to handle anxious dogs and bring them out of their shell is truly amazing. We get a photo and long message after each drop in about what they did that day (which is so appreciated by nervous dog moms, haha) and she even sent us the cutest Polaroid of Willa as a holiday gift. Truly cannot express enough how incredible she is and how lucky we feel to have found her!

We have had the best experience using Alexandra as our dog-walker for the past 3 months. She has been punctual, courteous, and so kind every time she has walked our two dogs. We love that she provides updates and pictures during/after each walk and we know that our dogs absolutely love their time with her. It’s hard to find someone that you can truly say you trust with your fur-babies, but that’s exactly how we feel about Alexandra. We cannot say enough good things about her and would HIGHLY recommend using her services!
Alexandra has been so great with our dog since she started walking her. We have a more timid dog that takes a bit to warm up to new people, and Alexandra has been so patient and now our dog is always happy to see her! She is also a bit leash reactive, and that has been no issue with Alexandra so far. Alexandra writes us a whole paragraph after every visit, along with a couple photos, which goes a long way in reassuring us that everything went smoothly and that our dog is doing good! I would recommend Alexandra to my friends in a heartbeat if they needed someone to check in on their dog.
About Alexandra R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I've learned a lot about dog behavior, communication, and the like from these experiences. It's important to me to use these trades when interacting with customers & their dogs. A relationship of open communication, trust, and understanding is key.
Information Alexandra R. would like to know about your pet
Sensitivities or "triggers". Is your dog food aggressive? How are they around other dogs? What about your dog's behavior near children? Any quirks that can be noted upfront are very helpful.
A typical day
It depends on preference. I'm more than happy to stay local with a quick trip around the neighborhood - or, if suitable, a car ride to the local dog-friendly park (as per the owner's approval).

I was born and raised (with large breed dogs like German Shepherds, Rottweilers, and Labrador Retrievers!) in the Philadelphia, PA area. Riding horses was, and continues to be, a hobby of mine. Most of my business was built in Orlando, FL. I recently relocated (along with my Pomeranian, Fitzgerald) to the area! I'm looking forward to meeting new Rover users, as well as their pups, along the way.
