Please let me know their favorite toys, snacks, and any of their personal little quirks. Some dogs love to be spoken to, some dogs love to sleep in bed. I want to hear it all!

I love to play with your pets, tug of war is my specialty! Most times we can be found just hanging out together on the floor or playing fetch in the backyard.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Alexis! I’m a recent graduate in biochemistry and lifelong animal lover with over 14 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs — from puppies to seniors, big and small. I’ve personally owned and raised four dogs, including my beloved Airedale who recently passed away after 10 wonderful (and very stubborn!) years together. He taught me patience, persistence, and how to love fiercely — and I bring that same energy to every pet I care for. I’m comfortable caring for pets with medical needs. I’ve personally handed diabetes, arthritis, CKD, and hip displaysia in my own pets and do not shy away when an animal is in need of some extra care. Whether your pup is 15 lbs or 90, I’ve got you covered. I’m always happy to follow your pet’s routine, meds, quirks, and favorite treats to make sure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away. Let me know if you have any questions or want to chat! I’d love to help out with your pets like they’re my own.

Alexis took great care of our anxious dog while we were away. She had asked questions beforehand and had good communication while we were away. Would definitely book her again for pet sitting!
