Safety, trust & environment

I connect with each client and treat their pet as similarly as they do, so the animals feel comfortable and their schedules are unchanged. Let your dog sit on the couch at home? They can cozy up next to me on my couch! No pets allowed on furniture at home? I’ll enforce that here to maintain consistency:)

Information Alexis D. would like to know about your pet

I have a two-year-old and nine-year-old at home, and they both are very respectful and cautious with animals after having many in our house! I only ask that if your pet is unfamiliar with the children, we have a meet and greet session to make sure that it will be a good fit

A typical day

I like to learn the habits, mannerisms, and personalities of each pet, and adapt my style of care accordingly. For younger or more energetic animals, I engage fully with play and higher-energy walks. Older or more nervous animals will get a more sensitive and caring approach from me. I’m happy to take a quick potty break outside or a full day at the dog park depending on your pet!

Pet care experience

Hi! I have a great deal of experience with both small and large dog breeds of all ages. I have had three dogs while I was growing up (a poodle, a Golden retriever/collie mix, and a black Labrador) and many cats, and have been pet sitting since I was a youngster. I was also a member of 4-H club that dealt with training seeing eye dogs and gained significant experience in obedience training. I am more than happy to give you peace of mind while you are away that your pet is in good hands, and will send updates and photos of our time together! My work schedule is very flexible, and I am available for overnight visits as well. I promise to treat your pet as if it were my own, and hope you chose to put your trust in me with your special best friend! Thanks! Alexis

Alexis provided daily updates and was very communicative throughout the whole booking. Jellybean was happy and healthy and enjoyed her time with Alexis while we were away!

Alexis and her family gave magnificent care to our senior lab dog, Mila. Alexis sent me pics during Mila’s stay and I could tell our old pup was comfortable and contented.

Kona had another great stay with Alexis and her family. We are so thankful for them! Kona is well taken care of and loved while she is in their care. Daily updates and pictures are always provided which is appreciated. We hope they are available the next time we need someone to watch Kona!

Alexis and her family welcomed our old sweet girl with open arms. We were so glad for their capable loving caregiving for her.
