Playful dog pack wants a new friend
Pet care experience
My name is Alexis, and my boyfriend and I live in a dog friendly two bedroom townhouse close to the University of Pittsburgh. Our townhouse has a back porch and medium sized unfenced backyard. Across the street is a large fenced in baseball field for the dogs to run around and a dog park 15 minutes away. I grew up watching relatives and friends dogs and cats while they were out of town. I currently have three small dogs that are very friendly with other dogs and cats, especially small dogs. We have two foster dogs Sox and teeters who are also very friendly and energetic. I currently work from home and care for my own dogs so your dog(s) will be right at home and you’ll have peace of mind that your dog(s) is getting the attention they deserve and plenty of belly rubs throughout the whole day. My boyfriend is a dog caretaker who walks dogs daily and is in and out of the house so he can also help me throughout the day when he is available. We do have a toddler but we make sure to monitor her interactions with the dogs so they aren’t uncomfortable to avoid any incidents. We’ve hosted many types of breeds and your dog may be hesitant at first with the pack so we make sure they have their own special place to unwind from the pack and usually after the first night of boarding and morning walk it’s a dog party!
Reviews
They are very friendly and caring! Yuki had a lot of fun staying at Alexis's place. I will definitely book the next time I need to board my dog!
Alexis put my mind at ease and took care of my crazy babies!! I’m so happy I found her!
Thank you Alexis for taking care of Aira again and sending us pictures regularly. She definitely enjoys the time with her puppy friends and your family while being at your place.
This was our first Rover experience, so we were a little nervous. Our guys are pretty old and sensitive! But they were in wonderful hands with Alexis. She, her dogs, and even her little one were all eager to make our guys feel welcome and at home. Photo updates confirmed that they were relaxed and happy during their stay! I would feel comfortable having them stay with her again. :)

We have a unfenced yard however we have two outdoor leashes because sometimes icy likes to explore. There’s a baseball field across the street we can let them off the leash and run around. For low energy dogs we offer the couch the lay on.

Information Alexis K. would like to know about your pet
How they are with other dogs, any medication needed, are they potty or cage trained, Do they need to be fed and are they allowed to have treats? No breed discrimination here.
A typical day
We do a minimum of two walks daily. When the baseball field is open we let our dogs out to run and play fetch. When it’s cold or rainy we have enough space to play catch inside or if the dog is a cuddler we all pile up on our bed and dish out belly rubs.
