Work from Home- dog sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alexis and I am offering pet sitting services in my home as well as pet visiting in yours. I currently work from home full time as an executive litigation assistant. I have large a fenced in yard. My husband and I have 3 dogs and a cat. The cat generally keeps to himself. The dogs are: Kojak the Doberman (100lbs), Hubble the Wire-Haired Terrier mix (30lbs) and Chip the Chihuahua (10lbs). All are dog friendly and love to have playmates- of course your dogs will need to be friendly to stay here too :) I have been dog sitting for about 13 years, 3 of the past years in my home as I purchased my house about 3 years ago. If you are looking for daycare, drop ins or overnight boarding- I welcome pet friends to stay with me. I also have an iguana, bearded dragon, axolotl and an African dwarf frog (don’t worry they have their own room so they are kept away from the dogs & cat!), but if you need someone to stop by to care for your exotics I am available! I also will come to your house for dog walks/potty breaks/medicine administration/etc. I had a ferret for 6 years whom passed away from lymphoma about 2 years ago- I had to give her syringes of medicine 2x a day for 2 years- therefore, I am comfortable administering medicine orally. I am also willing to learn how to do injections. I have been the designated kitty sitter for a traveling executive where I go to her house once in the morning and once in the evening for visits and feeding/play - I even take one of her kitties on stroller rides around the block! I have references available upon request! I am open to any miscellaneous care you need as well- I’ve had requests to take dogs to dog parks, I’ve helped clean dishes, bathe dogs etc. I don’t mind helping where needed & this can be discussed— think of me as your personal animal loving assistant! *** please be advised that boarding always takes priority. This is because I have committed to 24/7 care for the dogs being boarded with me. If you are scheduled for daycare and I am scheduled for boarding during your daycare dates, I will contact both pet parents to try to accommodate to the best of my abilities. This may mean switching daycare days, skipping a day, or potentially asking for permission to board and do daycare together. I ALWAYS will ask for permission from both pet parents before having dogs from different households at my house. I will also give you advance notice if you are scheduled for daycare and I am unable to watch your dog. Please feel free to ask questions! Note- if you see the collar on my Doberman … it is not a shock collar. It is a beep collar. I have a remote to make a beep noise if he is being bad (jumping up on people and digging holes in my backyard lol). Just didn’t want to alarm anyone! :) Any questions please reach out! :) In the summertime we have a kiddie pool for the water loving pups, inside and outdoor dog beds, and a private lake across the street if pet parents give us permission to take them for a swim. We have lots of toys and love to play!

Alexis was amazing! She made the boarding process easy and our dog Sadie loved staying with her family. Sadie looked so happy in every photo she shared throughout the stay!

Alexis was amazing! She helped out last minute for a doggie check in on our fur babies and made us feel so comfortable! She sent us pictures, gave the boys lots of love, and communicated everything so well! Would 10/10 recommend and use her again! 🫶🏽🐶
