Trustworthy, Reliable Loving Sitter
Pet care experience
I’m insightful and intuitive. I take great pride in being able to anticipate others’ needs and to fulfill them to the best of my ability. I’m loyal, funny, and outgoing...which, I suppose, tends to be true of my favorite animals: Dogs are so loving and trusting, too. They’re always happy to see you, and they bring out the best in everyone. I’ve always loved dogs, and since I don’t have one of my own right now, I maximize every opportunity to play with pups. I’ve been a volunteer at the Boulder Humane Society, I hang out with my friends’ dogs, and I’ve been a pet sitter for more than three years. I know how precious your pet is, and I’m lucky to get to spend time with your loved one! I excel with communication, and my clients continually come back because they know I’m a reliable, kind and loving companion. I work in customer service, so I have a lot of experience with making sure customers’ needs are met and everyone is satisfied. With a new client, we’ll do our first meet-and-greet in a public location. I move slowly and gently so the dog can get comfortable with me (and do all the sniffing they need to do!). Most of my clients are small and medium dogs, but the most important thing is that we’re a good fit for each other. Since I work evenings, I’m able to spend a lot of daytime outdoors, and I love to bring company with me. When i’m looking after a dog, we’ll get ample outdoor time every day. Neighborhood walks to trails, dog parks (my favorite is Memory Square in Louisville), and more--Colorado seems to have endless options, and many fantastic spaces for dogs. I like to discover a pet’s favorite place and go from there. I love having an excuse to get out and explore! Currently, I have one cat, Leo. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also had fish, frogs, chameleons, turtles, and guinea pigs, and I’m open to looking after any type of pet. I love the flexibility of working with Rover! I have a unique schedule, and I love being able to make the most of my days and connect with caring, dedicated owners and their dogs.
Reviews
Alex was so great and sent me plenty of pictures and videos of my kitty when I was on vacation. Will 100% have her come visit again for my next trip!
Alex was amazing!! Very flexible and communicative. I will definitely use her again in the future!!
I went to Mexico for my best friends wedding, and had Alex watch my two dogs, as well as a friends dog who was joining me on the trip. I really could not be more pleased with her services. It is such a stress relief to know that your fury children are in good hands. They were fed, excercised and loved on a regular basis, and I am so thankful to have found her. I could not recommend her more, and for a very reasonable price as well. Thanks Alex!
Alex was great, my dog, Cosmo, really loves her. Not only is she great with animals, but she is punctual and responsible. Fantastic. Friendly. Phenomenal.

Skills
Information Alexandra S. would like to know about your pet
How big is your dog? Has your dog spent time around cats? How do they get along? What are your dog’s favorite activities and places? What is your schedule like?
A typical day
My usual schedule is to go on a long walk after breakfast. In the afternoon, we’ll typically take a trip to a favorite dog park, or go on an afternoon walk if your pup prefers solitary ventures. Either way, we’ll be sure to get playtime, social time and plenty of treats and cuddles throughout the day. I leave for work around 3 pm and come home 6-8 hours laters, at which point I’ll make sure that your dog gets everything he or she needs before we settle in for the night.
