Information Alexandra R. would like to know about your pet

Feel free to share with me any helpful information about your pet, such as reactivity, environmental fears, allergens and more! Knowing your preferred vet contact and location is also very helpful in case of an emergency.

A typical day

I am a big supporter and advocate for pet enrichment! When you book a visit with me, I always make sure to provide a fun activity such as puzzle toys, lick mats, a flirt pole, or a fun training session (as approved by pet parents). I love to hear about pet preferences - wether they may be food or toy motivated to make their stay more fun and fulfilling.

Safe and Interactive Pet Care

Pet care experience

Due to my 6 years of professional pet care - including a senior position in a boarding facility, a grooming assistant, and pet store experience - I have become extremely knowledgable and comfortable around pets of all sizes and species. I personally have two kittens as well as crested and leopard geckos, a jumping spider, and a plethora of fish tanks (my favorite being my reef tank). Due to my professional experience, I am capable of administering medications, recognizing health issues, and communicating with pet parents very effectively - I take the health and safety of pets under my care very seriously!

Alex was great with our 2 dogs! She was very quick to respond when our original dog sitter plans fell through last minute. We have one blind senior that needs a little extra attention to feel comfortable and one energetic dog and Alex was able to give them each the attention they needed. We got updates and lots of pictures while we were gone. We will definitely be working with Alex in the future!

Alex was incredible! She was flexible, punctual, and professional throughout the entire process. She was very knowledgeable about reptiles and did an amazing job of taking care of my reptile room! I even got pictures of my geckos! I look forward to having her back in the future and highly recommend her, especially for exotics!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
