Safety, trust & environment

In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. This includes feeding on schedule, walking or exercising as requested, cleaning litter boxes or cages, administering medications if needed, and spending quality time with the pet. I also keep the home tidy in pet-related areas and provide updates (photos or messages) so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. My priority is always the pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being, while respecting the owner’s preferences and home.

Your Pet's Second Best Friend!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Alex — a lifelong animal lover and reliable dog sitter who treats every pup like family. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and gentle, or somewhere in between, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler routine. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, medication reminders, and plenty of playtime and companionship.

Alexandra did an amazing job! We were gone for over 2 weeks out of the country and she was everything we could ask for. She spent a lot of time with the dogs and house was cleaner than when we left. She was in contact with us and sent updates and pictures regularly. Dogs were very well taken care of and highly recommended her!

Alex did an outstanding job with my senior dog and cat. She was communicative and reliable. She asked great questions and was a pleasure to work with. I will for sure rebook her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the area. My house was well cared for as well and she did everything I asked. My animals were very well cared for and happy when I returned home-versus stressed.

It’s always nerve-racking when you have to find a last-minute dog sitter. Especially hiring someone you don’t know and probably do not have time to meet them. Well I can say that I am so happy that I had Alexandra take care of my pup while I was away. She accepted the last-minute appointment and I was quite pleased with her service. She was professional and a great communicator. She always informed me when she was on her way to my home and sent plenty of pictures. I highly recommend her and I personally will be using her again when there is the need.

Alex was absolutely amazing! My babies looked so comfortable in her care and she gave consistent updates and pictures while I was away for the week. 10/10 would recommend and would love to have her watch my pets again!!

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.
