I'll take your dog hiking!

Pet care experience

I worked in an animal clinic for about 4 years and have had dogs as pets all my life. I got my start petsitting when the veterinarian at the animal clinic asked if I would like to petsit for a client of theirs. Since then I have pet sat for various clients and friends over the past six years. I can provide any kind of care. I'm available full time for your pet. I'm able to administer medicine to sick and injured companions. I'm also able to provide basic grooming care such as expression of anal glands, nail trims, potty trail clean up, and baths. I like to stay busy and often times take pets along with me on hikes. References are available on request.

Alexandra was great! She took Sadie to the dog park and even gave her a bath. It was nice to pick up a clean and tired pup. Would definitely use her again.

Information Alexandra S. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet eat all at once or munch throughout the day? Is there anything in particular that might scare or trigger your pet? For cats, is catnip okay? Is the pet allowed on furniture and/or on the bed? Is there a certain time you come home that the pet it used to having a human companion?

A typical day

I guarantee at least 3 training/play/walking sessions a day. I'm an outside person so I would spend as much time outside with your pet as he/she would like. I can work on any training with the pet that might be going on while you're away. I am experienced and feel comfortable with the administration of medicine to your sick or injured loved one. I love all types of animals, and I absolutely love cuddling with them!
