I love dogs and they love me!

Pet care experience

Dog walking was my first job at 8 years old and is something that I've loved and kept up with ever since. I've been a professional dog walker as well where I received CPR training and how to read a dog's body language. I've been a consistent dog walker for several years now and not only have experience with puppies, small dogs, , but I also have experience with rescues. I am extremely patient with animals and will take the time for your pup to get used to me and trust me. I know this is important to build a good relationship. I also have experience with specialized breeds that need different attention like bulldogs. Your pup will always be my priority to have a safe and fun time on their walk with me.

Alexis has a natural dog caring instinct. My Rocky loves her, she watches him when I go on vacation. She is dependable, trustworthy and loves what she does.

Alexis has been dog sitting for us for some time now. She is the only one we would trust with our fur kids. We have three Chihuahuas and a Bulldog. She has experience taking care of the small breeds and larger ones but specially the Bulldog breed. She hast stayed in our house in many occasions to spend the nights with our dogs when ever we would travel for longer days. She is very trustworthy, loving, polite, neat and professional. We highly recommend her. Marcello & Cori

Alexis has been caring for Kiwi for over 10 years. Kiwi was a fiesty schnauzer and was picky as to who she would let near her. Alexis was able to build a bond with her immediately. Throughout the years as the family would go on vacations, we knew we were leaving Kiwi in good hands. Kiwi would always get the best walks with Alexis. Now as Kiwi has mellowed out in her old age, she still manages to jump around in excitement whenever she sees Alexis (super cute to see). We often recommend her to friends and family members. My daughter uses her as well with her cats. Highly recommend her to anyone.

Alexis has taken care of my cats on several occasions. I'm always at ease when I know she will be visiting them. I was away for several weeks and she notice my cat had blood in her urine. She immediately took her to the vet to be seen and started the meds while I was away. She paid for the special meds and food herself since I wasn't there. I gladly paid her back. I was so lucky to have her pet sit.

Information Alexis S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how comfortable a dog is with other dogs. If they have any fears like children, bikes, mailmen. Anything that could interrupt a fun and peaceful walk.

A typical day

If the dog is comfortable with other dogs we will go on walks at public parks with lots of shade.
