Pet care experience

Loving your furbaby like my own 🐾

With working from home it allows me to give every animal in my care the attention and love they need as well as the flexibility to work with parents schedules. 10 years of experience working with dogs and cats both high energy, shy/nervous, needing extra attention, dogs who need separation from other dogs, both small and large! I have plenty of space in the back yard as well as toys both inside and out to make sure every fur baby is able to get their zoomies out, plenty of play time and comfort inside my home as well! I do not kennel any dogs unless the parents state that they need to be at any specific time for any reason. I want to provide a stress free experience where both fur babies and parents are taken care of. I want parents to feel confident in knowing their babies are safe and I will treat them as if they were my own babies, I taught my dog, to be able to go to the dog parks and be social nonaggressive. I specifically taught him to be gentle with cats and dogs growing up so he loves everyone. I do have extra space in my home so if someone needs to be separated or have a little bit of some space way while receiving the same quality care, they are able to have that! If I go into your home it is specifically to give the babies play times with any toys you allow me to use and just show them the same loving and petting I would for my babies. 🐾 😊 If you have a questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to ask I am here to help you have a peace of mind! ☺️

Alexia was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and flexible with our schedule, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Most importantly, you could tell she genuinely cared about our pets and treated them like they were her own. She spent so much time playing with our cats and making sure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. She even went above and beyond by helping with the vacuum, water fountain, and Litter-Robot, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in such great hands. We would absolutely recommend Alexia and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Alexia went above and beyond for Peppy—and for me. I was unexpectedly hospitalized while out of town, and she graciously cared for him for an additional week without hesitation. She was incredibly kind, understanding, flexible, and dependable during a very difficult time. Knowing Peppy was safe, loved, and well cared for gave me tremendous peace of mind. I’m deeply grateful and highly recommend her! 🐾💛

Thank you Alexia and family for taking care of Pinto while I was away. So grateful you were able to take him for my extremely last minute trip (5 nights initially) and for allowing him to stay that extra unplanned night with you all. I appreciate you so much for keeping me updated with pictures and any/all feedback (nice and quick too!) while he was under your care. I know he had a blast because he has been KNOCKED OUT since we got home- haha. I will for sure be reaching out for future trips :) Much love, Pinto & Kyra

This is the second time I've used Alexia and both times were great. She's super responsive and sends lots of pictures and updates. My dog and cat got lots of love from both her and her family and each time I've picked up my animals they seem to have had a great time. I have diabetic cats that require insulin shots so she was great with administering those and I had no issues! Thank you again for taking care of my babies!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With my experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your furry family members!❤️ I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

I believe communication is extremely important, so I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check ins for peace of mind. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, young, or senior, I strive to make them feel secure, loved, and at home in my care. 🐾
