Young and In Love... With Dogs.

Pet care experience

Hi there! My family owned dogs my entire life. My brother and I both cared for all of our childhood dogs/pets. My grandparents raised Fidelco dogs and as I would spend my summers with them, I was always exposed to these amazing little guys. As a teenager I would spend my summers home with our two family dogs. In my early college years, I dog sat for a couple of my mom's previous work friends, sometimes for a week at a time. As an adult, I raised my parent's dog from a puppy and currently own a dog of my own. I've also owned other pets such as cats, birds, and hedgehogs. I love to cuddle and play! I have lots of love to give! I'm the crazy lady you see talking to their dog while they walk them. So if you're dog is a good listener and loves cuddling, petting, and fetching, we'll be perfect mateys!

I was very happy with the care Alex provided to my Italian Greyhound, Zoey. She took a picture of Zoey and sent to me and then followed up afterwards. Alex is very friendly and easy to work with. I will definitely use her in the future and highly recommend her.

Alexandra grew up with dogs always in the home - anything from a Rottweiler to a Chihuahua. This also included being involved as part of a foster family to German Shepherd puppies that were going to be used as guide dogs for the blind. She took responsibility at a young age to take care of dogs (feeding, bathing, vet visits, etc.) and it has continued into her adult life with adopting her own dog from a shelter. She loves her dog and any other dogs she may meet in her daily life...she doesn't mind dog kisses either!!

I would absolutely recommend Alexandra as a dog sitter. She is truly fantastic with her own dog, and I feel she would extend the same love and enthusiasm to any dog in her care. She also makes amazing dog biscuits. My own dog, Digby, can't get enough of them.

Information Alexandra R. would like to know about your pet

I don't judge on breeds. I would love to know the dog's likes and dislikes. If they are alright around other people and other animals and if not, who or what to stay away from. Really, I'd love to know the personality of your pet so we can get along as best as possible.

A typical day

For walks, it depends on your neighborhood. I like to take dogs to nature areas or streets with less vehicular traffic for safety purposes. Plus, what dog doesn't love a stroll in a field or woods?
