Lexie loves your Furbabies too!!
Pet care experience
Hello, My name is Lexie, and after the passing of my 3 dogs, I adopted a heeler, Nina from euthanasia at CCSPCA. She had kennel cough, & unbeknownst to everyone, was also pregnant. I kept Nina and 3 of her daughters. After two passed away, I adopted Pieces from Pinky Paws rescue and Nooshy from a foster who was over capacity and taking her to the shelter. If you can tell, I have patience and I know that love you have for your babies goes beyond what a Kennel can provide. I enjoy playdates & taking the pups to dog parks, concerts at Woodward park, walking around & listen to music, PetSmart barkarita fiesta, Petco, & Grizzlies events to pass the time. To help avoid further separation anxiety, I will come to your house, walk your dogs, clean the litter box, feed your pets, and give medication according to instructions. My family has pet sit for local families for over 20 years. Your pets are precious Let's Talk!!
Reviews
We have been using Alexia for 6.5 years now. We are so pleased with her and always feel at ease knowing she's watching our fur babies.
Thank you.
Extremely unprofessional. Accepted a request to cat sit and then did not show up at the booked time. When I reached out she stated that she would not be there for at least another 2 hours. When asked to communicate if she would be late next time she canceled the request last minute. Would NOT recommend booking this sitter, not reliable for your little ones at all
Super reliable - thank you for being there!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is important. Training is the best thing you can do for your dogs. Expose them to being without you and being cared for by other people is a skill. Crate & leash training are skills I hope they have before I arrive. I need to know their behaviors. Do they swallow napkins, balls, dig under fences, pounce out the fence boards, etc...
Information Alexia M. would like to know about your pet
*Does your pet have allergies? Mine did, and my cat can only eat SO. I take food restrictions very seriously. Having a dog with kidney failure, daily subQ fluids & diet is important. *What are the signs your pet uses when going potty? * Are they up to date on vaccines, can I take them places? * How strict are your rules for the animals being crated? (my dogs are not crated) however, some households have certain boundaries I'd like respect.
A typical day
I've taken my dog and client's dog to get my oil & tires changed. Petco and PetSmart for special occasions like photos, Sample Saturdays, concert at the park, pack walks, sunset walks because I really enjoy their company and I have clients that work 12 hr shifts and I come and go throughout the day and agree to bring my dog along for sleepovers since their dogs were having a great time. My biggest joy in life are my dogs and my clients feel the same way about their dogs, so it can be real fun sharing silly stories during the stays

Availability
I started petsitting before the app had set times. I do not follow the design. Micromanaging through cameras is a deal breaker for me. Give me a realistic schedule. Morning, midday, dinner, late evening
