Your pet's new BFF & 2nd home
Pet care experience
I have a lifetime's experience caring for a wide array of animal species including exotic reptiles, dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, farm animals and arachnids. I'm particularly a dog lover. I'm an animal rescue volunteer worker & foster. I have experience with seniors, puppies, sick & special needs animals. Caring for animals is my passion. This is my full-time job so I can guarantee your dog will get a lot of attention & socialization if you book me to sit. Our daycare and board dogs are walked & also have unlimited use of our large yard. **Please don't ask me to host loud or dog aggressive or kid aggressive dogs, I will not accommodate that for any sum of money**
Reviews
Thank you for hosting Lucy, we received updates with pictures, our puppy was so loved and cared for. Alexandra and family gave Lucy so much love, and play time. Lucy comes home tired and well cared for.
Our 7 month old large breed puppy had a wonderful stay with Alexandria. Lucy was in good hands and came home tired from all the playtime. We will book again with Alexandria soon. Thank you for hosting Lucy.
Glad to have found a good place a good place for my dog. He seemed to be in good hands. I was hoping for a few more updates and feedback but maybe next time.
The most consistent sitter I’ve found on Rover. Always reliable and my pup is always excited to go! Have booked at least four times (maybe five?) and would definitely book again!

Information Alexandria S. would like to know about your pet
Health issues & medications, mobility & energy level, temperament, routine /schedule, diet & any food restrictions. Dogs with anxiety, separation anxiety or strict medication schedules will pay the puppy rate or more depending on the details. Puppies 6 months & under will stay at a higher rate than those who are 7-12 months of age. I will not host loud, infectious, or kid or dog aggressive dogs due to my high demand and my child, please do not ask. I will also not accommodate destructive dogs that cannot be crated if I need to step out. Must be able to inspect them for foxtails & burs safely. Ensuring safety & quality of stay for all guests is the most important thing to me. Dogs 1 and older that are not spayed or neutered will stay at $20/day more, males may be required to wear pads inside to maintain sanitation and protect my property, I have male anti-marking guards in multiple sizes on hand. If you are requesting daycare services and are needing an extended day that is over 9 hours my rate increases $5/hour past the 9th hour, please let me know the hours of care you require. Boards picked up later than drop will be asked to pay an hourly daycare charge of $5/hr if under 3 hours, rover automatically adds daycare beyond that, please communicate approximate drop off & pick up times. Special needs boards that require medications, those who have anxiety, those that cannot be left alone for a reasonable amount of time will stay at an increased rate up to double the standard board price. My rates are firm and are reflective of my expertise, experience, reviews and demand. My prices are subject to change on a case to case basis. Please respect my time and my rates.
A typical day
Your dog will be treated like family. We mostly walk around the neighborhood right now & play in the yard due to Covid, but we also enjoy walking around the lake and Jack London Square or hit a trail to take a hike or head to the beach when we can. We have a kiddie pool some dogs enjoy in the summer. There will be lots of toys & tasty treats to enjoy, please communicate allergies or restrictions prior.
