Pet care experience
Your Pet's New Best Friend!
With eight years of hands-on experience caring for a diverse range of animals - from playful pups and curious cats to bearded dragons and feathered friends - I take pride in offering a unique pet care experience that prioritizes the health, safety and overall well-being of any pet I'm responsible for. My journey began in childhood, nurturing my own beloved pets and discovering a profound connection with each animal I encountered. As I grew, so did my passion, evolving into a trusted resource for friends and family who needed reliable pet care. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but the genuine love and attention I dedicate to every pet in my care. With a fur baby of my own it's not hard for me to understand and appreciate how much the health, happiness, and safety of a pet means to an owner. While those important factors won't frequently vary what does is the personality of each animal and it's needs. Understanding that I tailor my approach to ensure they feel comfortable, loved, and engaged. Whether it's a leisurely stroll through the park for your dog, playtime with your cat, or creating a cozy environment for your reptiles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your furry, scaly, or feathery family members deserve the best, and I'm here to provide a warm, safe and nurturing experience that reflects my lifelong love for animals. Finally buckling down on my dream of writing a book gives me the perfect opportunity to care for animals whose owners don't have the opportunity to work from home or simply need the extra help. I love being able to help out fellow pet owners and I wouldn't trade the pet's I'm able to meet and spend time with for the world! Feel free to check out my Instagram for more videos and pictures!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I couldn’t recommend Allie more highly for pet care! She recently cared for my two Chihuahuas, Nanners and Lola, as well as my two indoor cats, Ava and Luna. My pets are not only extremely dear to me but also quite particular—they have a rigid feeding and bathroom schedule and are notoriously picky eaters. Allie handled all of this with ease and professionalism, making sure their routines were followed to the letter. What truly stood out was how comfortable she made my pets feel. Nanners and Lola can be anxious little ones, but Allie’s calm and caring demeanor immediately put them at ease. Ava and Luna, who usually keep their distance from new people, warmed up to her quickly, which was a testament to her gentle and attentive approach. Allie kept me updated throughout, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared for my pets as if they were her own. I am so grateful to have found someone I can trust with their care, and I would absolutely call on her again in the future!
I am happy to share my experience with Alexandria as my pet sitter. Alexandria has a very clear passion for animals. She is responsible and follows all instructions to the letter. As requested, Alexandria gave regular updates, sent photos and reported anything that she determined to be out of the ordinary or not as expected. Upon my return, my pets were relaxed and happy, which reassured me that they had received Excellent care. I highly recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated pet sitter, her exceptional service and love for animals truly made a difference! Deb R.
Allie is a very good pet sitter, whether it comes to any type of pet! I have a bird, bearded dragon, and two dogs, and she manages to take care of all of them! She made a special bond with all of them and I was really satisfied to come home and notice that all of my pets love her! I recommend her to everyone with any type of pet!
Alexandria is the best dog walker/sitter there is! She’s so patient with my crazy Gunner dog! He absolutely loves when she comes to see him. Wouldn't recommend anyone else!
Allie is always the best when it comes to taking care of my dogs! She’s always super sweet and helpful and the dogs really enjoy her. She’s flexible and always available when we need her. Can’t say enough about how much we enjoy having her watch the animals when we are out of town.
Does an amazing job walking my two fur baby’s they always love when she comes to walk them they get all the love and a much needed walk

Schedule
I currently work from home writing my book which allows me to be extremely flexible throughout the week, but I usually try to keep my pet care hours between 6 AM to 5 PM unless I'm staying with the pet/pets overnight.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not yet provide boarding services, but I have no issue with taking care of pets in their own home for now. I have a pretty thorough list of questions that I like to go over with a pet owner when we first meet so that I can get an idea of how I can best provide a healthy, happy and safe environment for each specific pet. Things I include on my list, from allergy information to regular pet behavior, will allow me to make any adjustments necessary to nail your unique pet care needs and allow you to trust that everything is accounted for and will be taken care of. I am in constant communication with pet owners making sure they get any necessary updates and of course all of the cutest pics and videos of their pet/pets that they could ask for. With time, familiarity, and consistency I strive to make you and your pet's experience even more seamless. Feel free to check out my Instagram for more videos and pics and/or to DM me for the list of meet and greet questions! Instagram: alliepateandpets_28
Pets
A typical day
I have many walking routes that I rotate through to not only keep things interesting for myself and the dogs but also to cater to different animals, whether they are a bigger and need a longer walk or timid and prefer to run into fewer people. I like to keep the walks between 30 minutes to an hour in the morning and evenings either before 10 AM or after 2PM. I also really love making frozen treats that are not only healthy but keep your dog/dogs entertained and engaged (I usually make these personalized for each pet after learning more about allergies and food preferences) or use treat toys/puzzles. After either a frozen treat and/or a game of fetch I then prioritize down time. This can look like anything from cuddles and petting to independent rest depending. These activities help me achieve my three foundational pillars for pets under my care to which I refer to as walk, engage, and rest. These are my basics but of course I love to go over each animals' preferences so that I can make sure that they are having the best time ever under my care and supervision.
