Will Love Your Fur Baby Like My Own

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals of all different breeds, shapes, sizes etc my entire life. I grew up on a sheep farm with three dogs (a Norwegian Elkhound, Dalmatian, and Husky mix). During middle school we had two more elkhounds and they gave birth to a litter of 7. I raised one for myself named Butterscotch as well as a tabby kitten named Drake. When I went to college I got another puppy of my own named Henry as an Emotional Support Animal. He is a Samoyed and currently 1 and a half years old. Out of all the dogs I have taken care of in my life, Henry has been the absolute hardest. I have trained him myself to do all the tricks and therapeutic help that he provides for me. He is the most out going, attention seeking, personable, wild dog that tests all of my buttons but also loves me and gets me through it all. So with that being said, I feel that I can handle whatever your dog may need. I have done lots of pet sitting here and there over the years for Labs, Retrievers, Dachshunds, Bichon Frise, Pit Bull etc. I have so much love for animals and I can't wait to get to know and love your fur baby! ***my roommate has a cat named Ferd but he stays in her room and sleeps all day. He is an old rescue cat that is very chill.

It’s difficult to actually pick one thing that Alexis does great, only because she does everything perfectly. From being on time, proper handling, cleanliness, and an eye for detail Alexis is always my first pick for a job. She has a heart of gold and strives to not only make your furry friend happy, but you as well. She is also extremely great at keeping you updated about your dog! She always sends pictures and videos. I would never hesitate to hire Alexis. She is an absolute must pick.

A typical day

We will go on lots of walks or runs if your dog likes that! There is an open area near my apartment where I can throw a ball or play with your pup! There are trails near my apartment with nature walks that I can take your dog on too. I have a large couch if your dog just likes to chill and get loves all day!
