My dogs are sociable, always keeping an eye out, they are like little kids. There is currently a Japanese Chin, Shitzu, Pekingese, Saint Bernard, a cat, a bird and 3 guinea pigs, in the home.

Information Alexis G. would like to know about your pet

If it’s a social dog. No breed preference but Pomeranians are extra special. If any medical issues. Do’s and Dont’s. Vet info, emergency contacts as well.

A typical day

I have interactive dog toys and on weekends I like to take walks through state forests and or parks. If theirs a pool most definitely that would be a treat for them, throwing a ball in water and having them enjoy the best days of their life is the best:

Pets

Dogs rule and so do cats…

Pet care experience

Taken care of different breeds, small and big dogs, cats and small critters. Trained dogs used for disabilities. I walk small dogs with a harness only, and don’t allow them to jump from high places, due to their tiny bones. 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 give updates.

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!

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.
