Fear-Free certified & experienced!
Pet care experience
I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2019, and husband family and I moved to Colorado in July 2023 to attend CSU for vet school. I'm currently earning my master's in toxicology, and will be starting vet school August 2024. I have been caring for animals for most of my life, and I haven't found anything else that makes me happier! My husband and I have two fur-children, Smokie Joe and Remy. Professional veterinary experience: worked for a wildlife rehabilitation center, volunteered for several animal shelters, worked as the the lead surgery technician for a low-cost, high volume spay/neuter clinic, and worked as a surgery technician Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. I am Fear-Free certified, have basic first aid knowledge, senior pet experience, and CPR experience. I treat all pets as I would my own. You can rest easy while you're away knowing your pets are in very capable and loving hands! Meet and greets are preferred before first time drop-ins and walks, and are required for first time house-sitting requests. This is to ensure that your pets are comfortable with me and that there is no confusion about their needs during our time together. I am willing to do last minute drop-ins or walks if available, but a meet and greet is REQUIRED before any first time house-sitting requests will be fulfilled. I hope to meet you and your fur-babies soon!
Reviews
I felt so comfortable leaving my shy pup in Alexis's care. I was amazed at how intuitive and understanding she was with with him and how she got him to come out of his shell. She has great communication, was punctual, took care of the house stuff, and I loved the Rover check-in cards and photos!
Alexis was my last minute angel!! Our loveable meatball of a cat was diagnosed with cancer right before a trip and we needed a more intense check in than normal and Alexis stopped by twice a day to take care of him. She is a fantastic communicator, empathetic and clearly loves animals. I would definitely work with Alexis again and cannot recommend her enough!!
Alexis was wonderful!
Alexis was super friendly and the pups were every bit happy and healthy when we got home. I would easily recommend her to anyone and will absolutely reach out to her again if the pups are in need of someone to take care of them. Thank you Alexis!
About Alexis N.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to keep communication very open throughout any visits in your home. I try to stick to main living areas designated for me, and no one else will be permitted to enter your home unless given permission. Your babies will be safe!
Information Alexis N. would like to know about your pet
Please be sure to inform of any allergies, medical conditions and behavior patterns before walks, drop-ins, or house-sitting. This will give me time to prepare for any special circumstances to ensure that your pet stays safe and happy while you're away.
A typical day
I do not like dog parks for many safety and health reasons, but I am willing to take dogs on outings, walks, play fetch, tug-of-war, or any other recommended activities. For my feline friends, I will make sure they get plenty of enrichment and love!
