Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to care for pets in the home they are used to, as it creates less stress. Staying within a routine they are used to, helps as well

Information Alexandra S. would like to know about your pet

I like knowing personality, energy and whether or not the animal can be around other animals. Diet is also important, as well as a typical schedule.

A typical day

Walks are an awesome way to add enrichment to a dogs day. Going around different paths, and smelling all of the smells is such a good time!

Pet care experience

I’ve worked with dogs for the last 15 years, mainly in the animal rescue scene. I can administer medication, as well. No dog is too young, or too old!

Alex took care of our 2 dogs for a week and she was awesome. She was happy to come ahead of time to meet us, walk and feed the dogs with me and it was super reassuring for me to see how she interacted with them. She absolutely loves dogs and she is used to caring for all sorts, demonstrating she’d be happy to adjust to their habits and give them quality play time. She’s also assertive and could use voice commands to get our young rambunctious male to listen. And she took the time to ensure our older picky dog was able to eat and take her meds. Alex asked all the right questions and made me feel at ease when I met with her. During the week, we got daily messages and pics of how they were doing. Alex also kept the house clean despite all the mud outside (not necessary but much appreciated), brought the mail in and collected chicken eggs. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our pups and home were in good hands. Alex will be our go-to for pet-sitting from now on. Thanks Alex!

Alex met us twice before we left. They asked detailed questions and followed instructions perfectly. Alex also provided daily updates and photos. Our beloved pet got tons of love. They were great!

Alex was an excellent dog/house sitter. We rec’d a daily pic of Lulu and we returned to a happy pup and our home was just as we left if. She was willing to do 2 “meet and greets” so that both my husband and I could meet her.

Alex is a wonderful pet caregiver. I have known Alex for many years, and they have been helping me with the variety of rescues in my own home, including lizards, frogs, cats, and dogs. They also worked for multiple years in a farm setting with livestock and horses. They are compassionate, safe, and reliable. Alex has years experience in feeding animals, cleaning habitats (tanks, litterboxes, stalls), walking dogs, and handling high energy furry friends. I consider them responsible and kind, a trustworthy person inside and out. This is their element, and they succeed at it.
