Pet care experience

Zoo keeper who loves ALL animals❤️

Zoo Keeper from El Paso, Tx. Other than rhinos and Elephants I have volunteered and cared for animals at animal services since I was 11 years old. I have two big dogs at home who are very spoiled and a turtle named Ozzy that I rescued. I also know how to take care of fish as I have a pond of my own. I have experience with dog walking all sized dogs and have experienced senior dogs in the past. I’m very patient and would love to meet your fur babies ❤️

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My own dogs have a set routine everyday and are trained to use the restroom outside. They have a fenced in dog run and when we are home with them they are never left unattended. I make sure they are well fed especially since my Great Dane is on restrictions due to medical reasons before he was adopted. Before we rescued him he was a skinny boy and now he’s my couch potato 🥔

Alexis is such a kind caring and compassionate person! She genuinely loves animals, from caring for her own dogs to working professionally with the animals as a zookeeper. She is responsible, attentive and someone i completely trust. I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my 2 cats under her care. I know they would be loved and looked after!

I've known Alexis for years, and there is no one I trust more to care for my Shih Tzu, Bubbles. Every time I have to travel, whether it's for a long weekend or several weeks while I'm overseas, Alexis is the first person I call. Knowing Bubbles is with her lets me enjoy my trips without worrying about him. Bubbles absolutely adores Alexis. The moment we pull up to her house, his tail starts wagging because he knows he's about to have a great time. He loves playing with her dogs, getting a lot of attention, and being treated like part of the family. It's clear that Alexis genuinely loves animals, and they love her back. Alexis is one of the kindest, most dependable, and compassionate people I know. She always keeps me updated with pictures and messages, so I never have to wonder how Bubbles is doing. I know he's happy, safe, and loved. I honestly think Bubbles enjoys his little vacations with Alexis as much as I enjoy mine. I wholeheartedly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet sitter. She will treat your pets as if they were her own. I can't imagine leaving Bubbles with anyone else.

Alexis is very caring and passionate about all animals. She'll show the same love and compassion to an animal in her care as she does to her own. She can perform any duties that your pet would require, without question. Has always been willing to help me when needed. Would definitely recommend.

Alexis Barrios has dogsit for me on several occasions. She has taken care of my 3 small dogs while I have gone on vacation. Alexis is a reliable and patient person that has handled my pets with total calm and competence. Not only is she incredibly loving with animals, she is a person I know I can fully trust my pets with. You can expect professionalism and kindness since she has a degree in Animal Science and works as a Zookeeper at the El Paso Zoo, and also volunteers on her free time at the Animal Shelter.

One of the things I admire most about Alexis is her reliability. When she makes a commitment, she follows through, and you can count on her to provide attentive, responsible care. Whether it’s making sure pets get plenty of exercise, keeping up with feeding schedules, or simply giving them the love and attention they deserve, Alexis goes the extra mile.
