The best care for your best friend.
Pet care experience
My name is Alexandria, and I'm a true animal person. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I have a work history that includes: •employment by a veterinarian clinic as kennel staff/dog walker •10+ years of in-home dog sitting for a prominent local family •4+ years of animal shelter work I have personal and professional experience in caring for dogs, cats and guinea pigs. With proper instruction, I'm open to working with other animal species as well. My goal is to provide your pet with the care and safety they deserve when you cannot be with them.
Reviews
Alexandria went above and beyond for me and my dogs when I was on a fairly long vacation. I appreciate the care she takes.
Wonderful care for our cat Ernie as always!!!
Alex is wonderful. She is extremely prompt and spent quality time with our 2 cats. She sent me pictures every time she visited and tried to play with them even when they weren’t very receptive to playing (which is not unusual). I will plan on using Alex from now on whenever we have to leave our cats while on vacations. Thanks Alex for being there when we needed you!
Amazing care and service as always. We never worry about Ernie when Alexandria is around. She is a true gem and we would be lost without her!!!
About Alexandria S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Drop-ins: 30-60 minutes of visits in your home that include feeding and fresh watering, potty breaks, administering medications, cleanup of accidents, outdoor/indoor play, coat brushing, treats, socializing and lots of snuggles. Dog walking: 30-60 minutes of on-leash exercise in or around your neighborhood (harness preferred for heavy pullers). Please note that I do not offer dog walking services after dark due to safety reasons. Also, we may have to cancel scheduled bookings during inclement weather (extreme heat/humidity and negative temperatures/wind chills causing unsafe walking or driving conditions).
Information Alexandria S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know in advance if your pets have any specific care instructions, health complications, medications or behaviors. I feel comfortable working with many reactive or fearful animals as long as I am given the transparency, time and space it takes to earn their trust.
A typical day
Does your fur baby love to play and be silly? So do I! Would they rather keep things quiet and cuddle instead? I've got that covered too.
