Active, experienced, professional!

Pet care experience

I am ready to take your dog on an awesome adventure! I always go above and beyond when taking care of pups - take them on an all day hike, trip to the dog park, or simply spend hours on end loving on them! I am incredibly flexible and laid back, knowledgeable on various training techniques, and have experience with pups and critters of all shapes and sizes. Need someone to watch your dog AND feed your parrot? I got it. Have a giant anaconda in your attic that may need some dinner while you're gone? Yeah, sign me up. I also have experience with deaf and blind dogs, as well as administering all sorts of medications. I worked as a neighborhood pet/house sitter throughout my teenage years. Over the past 6 years, I have worked for a local dog sitting/walking agency as well as completed rigorous training to become a therapy dog and handler team, through which I have gained a strong knowledge base in order to best take care of pets! Above all, I believe that your dog is your baby. I send texts at a frequency of your liking that include pictures of your sweet pup throughout the day. I clean up any messes they make in your home while you are gone, no matter how big (ask me about it in person, I sure have some stories). If your pup gets messy on a hike, I'll take a trip to the self serve dog wash to get him cleaned up. Feel free to ask me any questions! I can't wait to meet you and your pups!

Alexis was awesome! Sent pics of my pups during their walk and went the extra step of refreshing their food and water. Look forward to using her again!

Alexis was fantastic! Short notice and she really made everything easy - she stopped by the house to meet our pups then we were all set - so happy we met Alexis and look forward to using her again, she brings peace of mind!

Alexis watched our pups for a long weekend while we were out of town and she did a great job! She sent some picture updates and was in constant contact with us, which was great! One of our dogs can be a little high maintenance in terms of personality (we love her but it's true) and Alexis did a great job making her feel at ease while we were away.

Information Alexis A. would like to know about your pet

No breed or age preferences! I love taking pups out on hikes and dog park visits, so I would like to know if your pup is friendly with other dogs!

A typical day

For overnight in-home stays and drop in visits: I like to focus on keeping the dogs stress-free by mimicking their typical home schedule and energy level. If your pup is dog friendly, with your permission I'll take everyone on a hike or to the dog park for some extra exhaustion to distract from you being away. And of course, lots of attention! For dog walking: I can match your dogs energy level with my walks - we can take a leisurely stroll or a brisk jog (always need a jogging partner!). For a small extra charge, I will teach your dog loose leash walking so your walks will be a dream.
