Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment building with a dedicated rooftop dog area that has a good-sized grassy space. I’m also happy to walk dogs to the nearest park, especially if they enjoy longer walks. I don’t have a dog of my own, and I only board one dog at a time (unless sibling pups), so your pup will have my full attention.

Information Alexandra W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how your dog does around other animals, as I live in a dog-friendly apartment building and we will likely encounter other dogs. It’s also helpful to know if your dog is prone to accidents. Please let me know if your dog is a strong puller on the leash. Lastly, let me know if your dog tends to pick things up off the ground during walks and how they typically react if something needs to be taken out of their mouth.

A typical day

I will be taking the pets I watch to the local park that is a few blocks away where we can either walk, play catch, or meet other dogs.

I love dogs, I’m happy to help

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs for friends and family for over 11 years, working with all breeds and sizes. I work remotely and don’t currently have a dog of my own, so I’m happy to give your pup lots of attention and care. My apartment building also has a rooftop dog park where dogs can safely enjoy off-leash time.

Alexandra was amazing with Burt. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and am so grateful when my flight got cancelled she was able to watch him an extra night/day. Burt looked like he was really living the life! Thank you!

Summer was not eating and she kept letting me know when she started eating again. And she walked her in the cold weather.

I have a very energetic and reactive dog that requires a special person to take care of and I trust very few with her! Alex has been one of my most reliable people to count on with helping me with my furry friend!! You’re pups are 100% in good hands!
