I’m paw-sitive your pet will dig me

~English follows~ J’ai toujours aimé les animaux et j’ai une affinité particulière pour les chiens. Je suis la personne de confiance pour garder les animaux de mes proches. J’ai vécu avec des chiens et des chats donc je suis à l’aise avec toutes les races et tailles. Aujourd’hui, moi et mon copain profitent des balades en nature avec notre labrador de 10 ans J’apporte mon Lab pour des randonnées en forêt au moins une fois par semaine, est-ce que ton pitou en profitera? Envoyer moi un message! 🐾 Je suis patiente et je comprends l’importance d’un entraînement cohérent, tout en m’adaptant aux besoins uniques de chaque animal – que ce soit des casses-têtes pour les stimuler mentalement ou des sessions interminables de balle pour les plus énergiques. Si votre animal a besoin de compagnie, de pauses de pipi régulières ou de soins spécifiques, je peux même travailler à distance de chez vous. Mon labrador peut m'accompagner ou rester à la maison avec mon partenaire, selon vos préférences et celles de vos animaux. N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour voir si je suis la bonne personne pour vous et votre compagnon à poils ! 😊 ~~~ I’ve loved animals my whole life and have always had pets. I have a special bond with dogs and am the go-to sitter for friends and family. I’ve lived with terriers, dachshunds, labs, and cats, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes. These days, I enjoy nature outings with my partner and 10-year-old Labrador. I take him for long forest walks at least once a week, would your dog like to join us? Drop me a line! 🐾 I’m patient and understand the importance of consistent training, adapting to each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s puzzles for mental stimulation or endless fetch for high-energy pups. If your pet needs company, potty breaks, or special care, I can even study remotely from your home. My Labrador Retriever can tag along or stay home with my partner per you and your pets preference. Let’s connect and see if I’m the right fit for you and your furry friend! 😊

Safety, trust & environment

~English follows~ La sécurité de votre animal est ma priorité absolue. J’ai de l’expérience avec la mise en cage, le port du harnais, le nettoyage des dégâts ou des litières, l’alimentation crus ou spécialisés, et l’administration de médicaments. Je me concentre sur l'établissement de la confiance et j'utilise toujours une longue laisse pour assurer un rappel fiable avant d'autoriser des sorties en nature sans laisse ou des visites dans des parcs pour chiens inconnus. Pour les chiens qui aiment la compagnie, je peux emmener mon labrador âgé et amical (stérilisé et entièrement vacciné) lors des promenades. ~~~ Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’m experienced with crating, harnessing, cleaning up messes or litter boxes, feeding raw or specialized diets, and administering medication. I focus on building trust and always use a long lead to ensure reliable recall before allowing off-leash nature outings or visits to unfamiliar dog parks. For dogs who enjoy company, I can bring along my friendly senior Labrador Retriever (neutered and fully vaccinated) to join on walks.

Lexie stayed over at our place, I was very nervous since my Dacshund is very stubborn and needy, but she made me feel very calm. She managed to make my Billie sleep and not anxious the whole night. She mas amazing !!!!

Alexine was an absolute gem! She took such great care of Apolo 🥰 so loving, attentive, and thoughtful. She sent us updates and cute pictures every day, which made us feel super comfortable while we were away. She also brought her adorable dog Charlie, and the two got along so well! The house was left clean when we came back, and she was super respectful of our space. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend her! We will definitely contact her in the future again. Apolo already misses you! ❤️🐾

Alexine lived up to the challenge of taking care of our 9 week old puppy . Alexine is very good with puppies , she even attended our puppy training class during our absence . Alexine is reliable , and very trustworthy. We chose for her to live in our home for the week and she left everything in top shape ! Do not hesitate to book her services !

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Alexine! She took such amazing care of our two dogs while we were away, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Both of our pups have very different personalities—one is full of energy and the other is more reserved—and she manages to connect and work with both of them super well. When we returned home, our dogs were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. We are so grateful and will absolutely be reaching out again for any future trips. Highly, highly recommend!

Alexine was an amazing house sitter to our two dogs! She was incredibly reliable, responded quickly to messages and questions, and went above and beyond expectations. She managed last minute issues like skin irritation for one dog and a mechanic needing to visit with ease. She went on long trail walks with our dogs and her dog and seemed to care deeply about their mental and physical enrichment. My partner and I were able to leave our dogs in her hands and not worry about their wellbeing. She left the house spotless. I cannot say enough good things. You will not regret booking Alexine to care for your pets!! We already have her booked for our next trip. Thank you Alexine

Schedule

~English follows~ Je poursuis des cours en ligne à l'Université de Guelph, ce qui me donne la flexibilité de m'adapter à différents horaires de marche ou de travailler à distance pour garder votre animal de compagnie pendant la journée ou pour des séjours de nuit. Les jours de semaine me conviennent le mieux, avec la possibilité d'une fin de semaine occasionnelle si vous réservez à l'avance. ~~~ I’m currently taking online courses with Guelph University, which gives me the flexibility to accommodate different walking schedules or work remotely to keep your pet company during the day or for overnight stays. Weekdays work best for me, with the option for occasional weekends if booked in advance.

~English follows~ J’aimerais savoir : -Quelles commandes vous utilisez avec votre animal, -Si vous travaillez sur des comportements difficiles (comme tirer sur la laisse, sauter, ou l’agressivité envers d’autres chiens en laisse) afin que je puisse les aborder de manière consistante avec vos méthodes, -Si votre animal est anxieux ou craintif, ou s'il a des réactions spécifiques (comme au vélos, sirènes, ou les bruits forts), -Tout autre besoin ou particularité de votre animal. ~~~ I’d love to know: -Which commands you use with your pet, -If you’re working on any challenging behaviors (like leash pulling, jumping, or aggression toward other dogs on leash) so I can approach them consistently with your methods, -Whether your pet experiences anxiety, fear, or has any specific triggers (such as bicycles, sirens, or loud noises), -Any other unique needs or quirks your pet might have.
