Dogs run the world :)

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of different breeds, small and big dogs, cats and small critters. Trained dogs used for disabilities. My dogs are therapy dogs and very sociable. With small dogs I do not let them jump because of there tiny bones and will only walk small dogs on a harness. I am very in-tuned with how dogs act. I am very protected and alert with them. I stay up if they are sick. I make sure they are secured before opening any door where they might run off. I have an Instagram page where I upload dogs I meet , dogs I take care of or watch , dogs that were placed in safe homes. I will take photos to you give updates on your fur babies. I live in a wooded area, with a fence. Have lots of room to walk , run. I can bring the dogs to a nearby park. I’m used to clipping and washing doggy butts.

Look no further! If you’re reluctant to leave your pets in someone else’s care, this is the sitter for you, hands down! Alexis has been a Godsend for our canines! She has pet/house sit our 2, along with 3 of our grand dogs, in 2 different locations! She is so loving and caring for each of the dogs and extremely flexible! She watched our 5 dogs in two locations as well as delivering one for a photo shoot 15 miles one way for my daughters wedding! So for our sons wedding, a few months later, we could rest easy, leaving the state and our beloved canines to Alexis’ capable, compassionate and caring hands!

Rover.com I have know Alexis for 20 years . In that time she has been a tremendous help with my dogs.,Cats, guinea pigs . She is beyond the word excellent in care giving them. I can not recommend her enough or have enough things to say about her love for pets of all kinds . She went with me to put my dog down when she was dying . She loved her and took great care of her throughout her 11 years. And Alexis was with me when Lily my pom crossed the rainbow bridge. Anyone hiring her will i be so pleased . She is awesome ! You will love her. Sincerely , Elaine C.

Alexis Is phenomenal with the care of animals! She is a natural born animal trainer ! Just as the old story of the pied piper she is that with animals! I have 5 pets myself and they absolutely love her! Alexis came over and helped to care for My small peke that was diagnosed with kidney failure a couple years back . Such a sad time but Alexis helped us in caring for our dear little Molly! Alexis also purchased a memorial stone for her! I cannot say enough about Alexis’s demonstration of love toward animals and their response of love toward her!
