About Alexandra T.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am available for overnights to ensure as much comfort as possible while you are away, and I'm happy to try to maintain routines that you have set. I've also gone as far as sending daily pictures for proof of life and happiness! And, as a bonus, I have a veterinary friend who never minds when I have a pet question for her (and we love her for that)!
Information Alexandra T. would like to know about your pet
Full transparency about pet behaviors is crucial. I'm more than willing to learn the little nuances - the more information I have, the better equipped I will be!
A typical day
If your dog needs a running buddy and is leash trained, I'll take every excuse to keep up with my running schedule. I love to play! So as long as I know where the toys are, I'll keep the pups entertained as much as I can. I also enjoy reinforcing training with practice and treats (as allowed) to keep them engaged.

Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Alexandra and I love all the fur babies! (Truthfully, I love all pets - furry or otherwise.) I have been a cat aunty for many years to the cats of my current and previous roommates, and I have yet to meet one who I don't just love to bits! I had a dog many years ago and have since been a dog aunty when a friend needs a sitter. I already love to play outside, so what's better than bringing along a bouncy fur baby? Most of my pet/house sitting experience has been through personal connections. I have spent the last 4 years caring for cats and dogs of all ages, including seniors who need medications, and doggos who need extra attention for regular potty breaks. I've also had the pleasure of caring for a few chickens! I prepared their fermented food every couple of days, collected eggs, and cared for the coop. (Being that most sitting I've done have been through personal connections, the reviews on my page are minimal. To supplement, I have many references to share, so if you would like them, let me know!)

Reviews
Alexandra T. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Alex was the perfect caretaker for our two small dogs. She was proactive in setting up appointments for us to meet and finalize our plans. Alex sent pictures and status updates every day, something we really appreciated. She left our home spotless. I would recommend Alex to anyone looking for a caretaker for their precious fur babies.
Alexandra has watched our three dogs multiple times and we always recommend her when we get the chance. She stays at our home and makes sure our pups are happy and spoils them with lots of love and attention. Alexandra always leaves the house clean and is responsible, respectful, and she communicates well and sends pictures of our fur babies throughout her stay. She truly has a way with dogs no matter what the personality or age. We would highly recommend her!
Alexandra cared for my senior kitty for a week. She was great! She sent me updates throughout the week about my kitty and even helped with a surprise visit from a colony of ants. She took care to ask what to use keeping my kitties safety in mind. My home was clean when I returned and my kitty happy as ever! I will continue to use Alexandra for all of my pet care needs and have recommended her to family with great results too.
