A Loving & Energetic Caregiver!

Pet care experience

New to Durango and looking for a fun way to fill gaps my sometimes sporadic schedule. I have always been a pet lover and owner, and I'm hoping to bring my passion and expertise to my new town! In addition to caring for my own animals, I have professional experience with pet walking/sitting companies, and I have a reputation for reliability and responsibility. While living in Denver, I professionally walked/sitted pets, and I loved it! I haven't found a better position than playing with and caring for fur babies. Working for Out-U-Go!, I held down the team's most demanding route, visiting up to 13 unique (and sometimes difficult) pets a day. Additionally, I took a course in animal behavior for the company, during which I was trained in approaching and caring for dogs and cats... and the occasional reptile. Outside of Out-U-Go!, I have sitted my friends' and families' pets for years. This includes animals of all types; older pets with special needs, young pets with a lot of energy, cats that just need some love and time to relax, etc. Whatever you're looking for in a sitter, I can confidently provide. Through undivided attention and open communication, your pet is safe with me!

Alexis is awesome! She took care of our three dogs in our home for 6 days. They got along great with her and she even gave our diabetic lab his twice daily insulin shots. She sent us updates, photos, and videos while we were away. We felt very comfortable having Alexis in our house. We highly recommend her and will definitely contact her first when we need a dog sitter again!!

Alexis stayed at my house for 3 days, not only taking care of my sweet Oso, but also my home. When I came home, I could barely tell that anyone was even there, other than the small amount of few rinsed dishes neatly stacked in the sink (dishwasher was full of clean dishes I had run, that she would have had no clue where to put away). My Oso girl almost looked disappointed when I got home, half looking around me for her I suspect 😂. She walked her everyday, gave her treats, and sent me a pic when I texted a quick check on how things were going. I so wish she was still here in Oklahoma. I recommended her to several friends as well, that were eager for a responsible young adult to watch their fur babies.

Alexis has consistently proven to be one of the most compassionate and responsible animal caregivers that I have entrusted with the care of (3) high maintenance animals.
