Pet care experience

Reliable Somerville Dog Walker

I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through pet sitting for family and friends, and I also volunteered with a local animal shelter, where I took dogs on “doggy day trips” for walks and time outside the shelter. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always aim to meet each dog where they are! I have a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to offer reliable weekday care including morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight stays when needed. I focus on calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed while keeping their routine in place. Outside of pet care, I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors through walking, hiking, and fitness classes! I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide pet care in clients’ homes, focusing on keeping each pet comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. I follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific household guidelines. For dogs, I prioritize calm, structured walks with safe leash handling, along with attention, play, and bathroom breaks based on their usual routine. For cats, I provide quiet, respectful care including feeding, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and companionship based on each cat’s comfort level. I also make sure the home is secure while I’m there and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well!

If you need a pet sitter who will love your pet just as much as you do, look no further than Alexis! She is kind and gentle, dependable and trustworthy. The dogs that I have owned have absolutely adored her, and yours will too!

Schedule

Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. This allows me to reliably offer morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care during the weekdays, with some additional flexibility on weekends depending on availability. I’m looking to provide steady, dependable care that feels consistent and low-stress for both pets and their owners, rather than occasional or unpredictable bookings.

It’s helpful for me to know about your pet’s daily routine, personality, and any habits or behaviors that are important for their care. This includes things like their feeding schedule, walk preferences, energy level, and how they typically respond to new people or other dogs. If your pet has any triggers, medical needs, or special instructions (such as leash behavior, reactivity, anxiety, or dietary restrictions), I really appreciate knowing that ahead of time so I can provide safe and consistent care! I also find it helpful to know what they enjoy most, whether that’s walks, playtime, or simply quiet company, so I can make sure they feel comfortable and supported while you’re away.
