Hi, I’m Alexis!💞☺️👋🏼 I have always loved and had a connection with all types of animals and recently just joined Rover in the summer last year to fill some of my time, I took a short break but now am back to sitting just relocated a little from where I was!☺️🐾 Before I found out I didn’t quite have the stomach for it and actually explored the career, I always wanted to be a veterinarian so I could get to work with animals! Since I couldn’t handle the messy medical parts now I love to sit + walk the fur-babies, take them to the park, and give lots of snuggles + treats!🥰 I’ve took care of pets since I was little and our animals had multiple litters of puppies and kittens as well so I’ve got to take care of little fur babies too❤️ My mom and I ran a pet sitting page through Thumbtack in 2014 that was super similar to Rover and we were voted a top sitter under ItsRainingCats&Dogs<3 I love getting to feel like I’m helping a family and pet stay close while they are apart, while I’ve done pet sitting I’ve worked with elderly, blind, deaf, and other disabilities that needed help with some extra things.❤️ I like to make sure the animal always feels as comfortable as it can if staying in my home so let me know any special needs and I will always send pictures!😊 I’ve also given medications before if your animal needs to take them while being watched just as long as it’s pills or oral, I’ve never administered a shot.❤️ I have a small lab retriever mix who is full of energy when he wants to be and has never not wanted to introduce himself to the others, he is about 20 lbs and going on 4!😊🐾 He also LOVES to get out of the house and go on car rides so as long as it’s okay with you and your pet wants to, they can come on the adventures as well!🥰 I’m currently finishing my last year of school online and work on jewelry for my Etsy shop in the daytime so I am almost always home during the week and usually just run quick errands throughout the weekends so I’ll always be back to check on the pets☺️ I have a large fenced in back yard and a golden retriever named Ollie as well who loves to make friends and keep your pets company! (As long as they are okay with other dogs)☺️🐾 If not we can always crate and put them away or we have a couple different rooms for our dogs. Ollie loves to start rolling over and play tag when meeting. I let them use the bathroom every 1 -2 hours and always watch over them while they eat just in case. If you’re furbaby gives you a hard time in the bath or you’ve noticed they’ve been getting a little stinky, I don’t mind sitting in there with them and getting wet. If they get anxiety from baths I can bring treats and help them stay calm.❤️ We have some oatmeal soap for dry + sensitive skin and soft bristle brushes as well as nail clippers if you notice they need theirs done I have been clipping my dogs for a long time😊
