Information Alexis K. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, I just like to make sure the pups staying here with us get along with my two fur babies Scooby and Darla. They don't have to be best friends per se but my dogs are my first priority so as long as their comfortable and safe in their own space then I'm excited to have your pet come stay with us.

A typical day

We will definitely get outside and go for walks as long as the weather permits it! I live in an area that has some excellent walk routes as well as a park up the street I like to take them to one or two of these trails atleast twice daily. I'm big on activities, it helps keep the day interesting so playing and interacting is also a big part of each day here.

Pet care experience

First off hello, my name is Alexis and I am a true animal lover and have been since childhood. I remember being a little girl and I finding 4 kittens in a cage that someone had just thrown out into the woods and left to die. I took them all and brought them home and named one of them Frankenstein. Ive been trying to help animals since. Big small, warm or cold blooded I genuinely care for them all. I am extremely knowledgeable about animal behavior, and volunteered at The Howling Dog farm in Worthington Mass for many years helping with Alaskan Malamute's and Shiba Inus that went from everything to cleaning kennels to dog walking, grooming, feeding, basic training and just showering them with all the love and compassion I could in the time i had. All the additional experience I have is personal and from having multiple pets my entire life for 37 years. I know how to administer fluids to cats and dogs as well as give medications in a variety of forms, as well as special experience with senior dogs and cats. It's my life goal to be able to buy a nice little piece of land and train service dogs for people with PTSD, and help foster dogs that are in kill shelters to rehome them, as well as other animals. I know there are alot of people to chose from but I can promise you that I will treat your fur baby or babies like they are each my own. I also have 2 small dogs myself a chihuahua named Scooby who is a shelter dog and has come such a long way since I got him 5 years ago. Then theres Darla "LaLa" shes a terrier mutt mix that would befriend anything that approaches her. They are both such and vital part of my family and I would do anything for them and will the same for you and your pet if you give me the opportunity. I am reliable and hard working, so be part of my pack, I'd love to meet you and your pet! Just a side note, I do not bring my dogs on jobs. They are taken care of while I'm away on jobs, they do not come with me. They are completely happy with the extra treats and attention 🤣

Right off the start, you can tell Alexis is very comfortable around animals. She was a pleasure to meet and we felt confident she would take great care of our pet and home. We would definitely hire her again...in fact we already have!!!
