Pet care experience

Cat Whisperer of Boston

Cats have always been an important part of my life, as my mom was a foster home for the Humane Society and a feral cat network. We helped raise litters of kittens without a mom, socialized dozens of feral and foster cats for adoption, and gave special medical care to cats who needed more attention. As a result, I am a bit of a cat whisperer. I know how to listen to your cat and give them the care and attention they need while you’re away. I grew up owning many kinds of pets (ducks, gerbils, chinchillas, and bunnies to name a few). I am also a proud rescue dog mom and raised him from a puppy through all sorts of training (from socialization to more niche training like supporting him through separation anxiety. I love all animals and want to meet your furry friend and give them the best care possible. I am very responsive and understand as a pet parent how important finding someone to trust to watch your fur baby is. I live in the Fenway area but do not mind coming to wherever you are to take care of your pet. I hope I can be a reliable resource and caregiver to your furry friend.

Safety, trust & environment

I will always treat your fur babies like my own. As both a sitter on Rover and a pet parent, I know how important they are to you and want you to feel completely comfortable and confident before you leave. I will always give them love, food, water, and send you lots of fun photos so you’ll feel like you never left.

Lexi was reliable, communicative, and very patient and sweet with our extremely shy and skittish cat! I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Alexina was great with my kitten. This was the first time I had anyone watch him without me being around and Alexina took such good care of him ☺️ will definitely book again whenever we need a sitter.

Please let me know of any special needs or requests you have. I always offer a complimentary meet and greet to meet you and your pet (in person or virtually) to ensure I know exactly what your pet needs and likes while you're away. I also want you to feel confident before booking that I am the best fit for you and your pet. I have lots of experience in giving medication and other special requests. I want you to feel confident that someone is taking care of your babies while you’re away!
