Weekend and Weekday Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

My name is Alexis I just moved back to Wisconsin from Oregon City. I love all animals and would love to meet as many lovely pets as I can! I am available during the weekdays after 4pm and almost always available on the weekends. I was a lead kennel attendant at a doggie dorms, I was the animal care manager for my agriculture classes in High School and have been dog sitting for family and family friends for a few years. I have never been without a dog in my household. Right now I live with 1 pup of my own, she is a 2 year old old yellow lab! I have always had bigger dogs in my home and prefer to work with bigger dogs or puppies, but am not opposed to working with small dogs. I am good with dogs who may have a "special" case. For example I home sit for a 4 dog home which includes a Rottweiler, Black Lab, Miniature Pinscher, and Pug mix. The two big dogs can't be in the same room together but that doesn't mean they both don't deserve love. I also volunteered with Lucky Mutts Rescue and help to do the "puppy pickups" where we drove to Oklahoma to rescue dogs and bring them to Wisconsin! I've worked with animals since I was 11 an would love to meet as many dogs as possible!

Alexis went above and beyond when she watched our pups. We've used a lot of sitters in the past, but we'll stick with Alexis in the future. Thank you Alexis!

We have had alexis house and dog sit for us many times. We have four dogs total and our two big girls can not be in the same area together anymore and she came over spent time to learn the routine for them and has done a fabulous job even with us being gone for the whole weekend. I have absolutely no problem leaving her responsible for my dogs or my house. She's great at what she does you're animals would be in great and responsible hands.

Alexis is absolutely amazing with dogs. She cares for them as if they are her own kids. I would recommend Alexis to watch anybody’s dogs in a heartbeat.

Alexis is fantastic with dogs! She loves all pets like they are her own! You will not have to worry about your fur babies while on vacation when left with her! She has nothing but love to give them!!

Information Alexis M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything I should be aware of with the pet, any medications they need, what vet they go to and any habits they may have. For boarding I do have a very excited younger dog and would feel most comfortable with dogs that are good with the excited dogs, she is sweet as can be and loves all dogs just likes to try to get them to play with her for the first 25 mins!

A typical day

I love to walk with my pup and explore the neighborhood and smell all the pretty smells! I also love doing interactive games with my pup, such as hiding a treat in a muffin tin with tennis balls covering all the spots to have them find the treat!
