Information Alexis D. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog aggressive with other dogs or cats? Is your dog house trained? Does your pet have any special needs or medication? Can I take your dog to an enclosed off leash park?

A typical day

It is my goal to tire out your dogs and get them the exercise they need. We will explore my neighborhood streets, go to local parks and go on long hikes. I am new to the area so I am exploring lots of close trails. I can play fetch for a while and love to play tag with dogs.

Pets

Love dogs, cats, and reptiles!

Pet care experience

I have had animals my entire life. When I was young, I would walk, watch and clean up after my neighbors' and families' dogs and cats. I had 3 dogs growing up and have experience giving oral and ear medication to dogs. When I moved out, I immediately got 2 cats and have had them for 7 years. I have experience giving liquid oral medication to cats. After college, I have had experience watching my friends' and families' dogs and cats when they go on vacation for up to 3 weeks at a time. I also have experience with reptiles and am willing to drop in to feed them. I had a bearded dragon and currently have a crested gecko. I do not mind feeding snakes.

Alexis is fantastic! She checked in on my kitties and always pays attention to details. She even vacuumed their playroom for me. Love how clean and happy our house feels when we come home.

I had a family emergency and had to book a cat sitter with very short notice. Alexis was super understanding and communicated with me to figure out a plan together.

On schedule and very thorough during her check ins. My kitties were very happy, well fed and clean when we got back home from our vacation away. Will definitely re-book!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
