Ready to care for your pets!

Pet care experience

Hello! I have several years of experience with animals both on a personal level, but also professional. I worked with an animal shelter for 6 years, have had cats and dogs of my own and continue to pet sit for my friends! I have experience with working with sick/elderly cats and dogs as well and can administer medications (including injections). Since I currently cannot have a dog of my own, I'm always seeking out opportunities to be with/play with other dogs! I currently have two cute cats of my own.

Alex is amazing! She takes such great care of our pets, Daisy the pug and Little Kit, the Ragdoll cat. It’s not just about taking care of our pets. It’s about loving them so they feel comfortable and don’t miss us so much when we’re gone. Alex takes such good care of our pets so that we can fully enjoy our vacation! That is such a blessing!

Alex is always so professional and caring. She truly makes sure your pet is not stressed out and gives detailed updates that comfort you while away. Thank you!

Alex is by far the best dog sitter we have ever had!! She was so attentive and sent the best pup-dates I’ve ever received. She made sure we felt informed and comfortable the whole time we were away and sent so many pictures of our pup, Dante, while we were gone. Alex took him on super long walks, to the park, and clearly spent so much time entertaining him! Dante usually doesn’t eat every much when we are away and he ate every single meal without hesitation while Alex was watching him which honestly speaks volumes to how comfortable she made him feel. I’m addition to amazing care for our dog, she left our house cleaner then when she arrived. We will book with Alex time and time again and can’t recommend her enough!

Thank you! Alex once again followed perfectly all the kitty’s feeding instructions and gave her medicines. She gives detailed description of the day and tries her best to bond with my hissing kitty hehe

Information Alexandra S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat or dog has any peculiar behaviors I should be aware of. Also let me know their veterinarian information and emergency veterinarian as well.

A typical day

I can go on walks around your neighborhood or to any local dog parks. I can play fetch or frisbee. I also like to run everyday so they can come with me on my runs if they're extra active! I also walk my cats on leashes and can do the same for yours if they are trained. I also love playing with cats!
