Pet care experience

Dog Groomer 🐕 & Cat Lover 🐈‍⬛

Hello, my name is Alie and my #1 passion is animals! In search of my calling in life, I have found myself working for a pet grooming salon in my hometown, Milton, NY! I spend my days Tuesday-Saturday bathing and grooming neighborhood dogs then go home to love on my own German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix and Tabby cat! My weekends are filled with time spent with my family (pets are family!) and my pet sitting clients. I have spent my whole life around dogs and cats, helping to fulfill all of their needs, and have been formally pet-sitting for the public since 2021. Since I was about 12 years old, I have gained experience caring for dogs for friends and family, providing basic care such as feeding and potty breaks. As I grew, my experience expanded to include transportation to and from the vet and groomer, feeding, oral medication administration, ear drops/ointment, eye drops, walking, and (the best part of course) playing! My experience also includes my feline friends, most often multi-cat homes, for regular feeding, oral medication administration, ear ointment, litter box cleaning, and, you guessed it, playing!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets safety and comfort are of the utmost importance to me, I take any time necessary to ensure your pet's comfortable with me being inside their home, even if I exceed the typical 30m or 60m visit length! Working at a grooming salon, I have honed my skills with dog body language so I know when your pups are upset. My experience with cats has also taught me when the kitties aren't happy as well! Meet & Greets are a necessary part of the booking process to ensure everyone's safety over the course of a booking. All bookings that include a dog are required to have a one-time complimentary Meet & Greet prior to booking. Dogs are careful about the humans they trust, espcially with their parents gone, so I'd like to make friends with you present! Other bookings that only include cats are not required to have a Meet & Greet prior to booking but you are more than welcome to request one! Any additional Meet & Greets that are requested beyond the initial complimentary Meet & Greet will be booked at the drop-in rate listed on my profile. At the first visit, slow and quiet are the name of the game, I take my time going about their routine so they can get used to me! After my tasks are done, it's my goal to make them as comfy as possible by offering them their favorite toys and treats at their own pace. By the end of the booking, my aim is to be your pets new best friend and your go-to sitter!

Loved that she did a meet and greet with my dog and cat before coming over to watch them! She got to know my dogs big personality so she could better take care of him.

Alex was so great with my cat while I was out of the country! She provided really detailed updates that made me feel so happy knowing my boy was being taken care of. He’s super shy, but Alex was wonderful with him and made sure he was comfortable. She is absolutely reliable and trustworthy, and I would definitely recommend booking with her. I can’t wait to book with her again the next time we’re out of town!

Alexandria took amazing care of my golden while I was away for a few days! My dog needs as much human attention as she can get, and Alexandria's visits were perfect for her. I loved the detailed information she shared at the end of each visit, and I knew my pup was in fantastic hands.

Alexandria was wonderful checking in on our 2 cats. They are both quite shy but she is so patient with them and has made them feel very comfortable- they clearly enjoy her visits! She is very dependable, pays attention to all the details during her visits and shares the sweetest photos. It’s wonderful to know they are so well taken care of with her and we don’t have to worry about a thing, would highly reccomend booking with Alexandria!

If your pet takes any medication, I require a list and administration instructions to be left and reviewed during the Meet & Greet. Please have contact information for your vet and an emergency contact that lives nearby prepared, should any issues arise during the time I'm with your pets. Please note: A meet & greet is not required for all cat-only homes UNLESS your kitty takes medication! In this case, I would require that I'm present and/or able to administer the medication during a meet & greet. We all know cats have trust issues with strangers sometimes!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
