Highlights
Pet care experience
Understanding of sensitive pets.
I worked as a kennel tech for a dog trainer for 2 years and have been volunteering with a dog rescue that saves abused and neglected dogs for the past 6 years. These experiences, as well as raising my own dogs, have given me the knowledge to work with most dogs, but my passion is working with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs. Working on their time to gain their trust is my specialty and passion. I have experience working through basic obedience, counter conditioning, confidence building, muzzle training, gear shyness, and cooperative care. I also have experience working with dogs that require more intensive care due to feeding routines (such as making homemade food or strict feeding schedules with medications) and grooming maintenance (frequent or routine baths due to coat type or skin conditions). Know that under my care, your pup will be with someone who understands them as an individual and can meet them where they are at.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog's comfort as well as yours are my top priorities, so I do require a meet and greet before any service I provide. This allows me to meet your pet and see their behavior before a service, and lets you see how your pet feels around me. I provide daily updates with pictures, with the ability to provide more frequent updates at your request. I also strictly follow any instructions and routines laid out for me regarding a pet's care.
Ratings and reviews
Alexis has been the best house sitter. She's absolutely wonderful with our girls and very good with updates. I'm always excited to see pictures of the pups. Our 3 dogs get along very well with her. She has very good energy which I think makes our dogs so comfortable.
Once again, Alexis did a phenomenal job! This was our second time having her house sit for our three dogs, and she was wonderful as always. She sends daily updates with pictures, takes great care of our girls, and gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. We highly recommend Alexis!
Alexis is amazing, and we truly appreciate the wonderful care she gives our boys every time she watches them. She consistently does a great job, and we will definitely keep rebooking with her.
Alexis is amazing and always checks in when we are out of town!
This is our 2nd time using Alexis! Not only do our animals love her, she sends updates and pictures let alone is just the sweetest! Will always use her when she’s available!
I can't say enough good things about Alexis! She stayed with our three dogs for two nights, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly attentive, especially with their medication needs, and she really understood our shepherd and pitbull, who are usually a bit uneasy with new people. We came home to happy, calm pups, and we are definitely planning to rebook with her in the future. She also kept us updated on how everyone was doing and provided pictures. Highly recommend her!!!!

- Please let me know if your dog has any special needs that need to be accounted for. As well as any behavior challenges like fearfulness, reactivity, resource guarding, or separation anxiety. I would also benefit from knowing if your pup has any food sensitivities or allergies to keep in mind.
