Lex's Animal Service

Pet care experience

My goal is to make things easier for animal owners by allowing them to leave their animals comfortably in my care. I love being around animals of all kinds, and it would bring me nothing but pure joy to get to help care for your fur babies!

Alexis came everyday and made sure my dogs were fed and watered and she took the time to play with them and give them attention. She even went out of her way to go buy a bag of dog food for them while I was out of town. I will definitely use her services again. It’s nice to find someone you can trust not only to come in your home but to care for your animals. Can’t thank her enough!!

Lex is the bomb. She’s prompt, communicative and eager to bond with your pet! Even if your pet can be kind of a jerk, like mine. 😂

Alexis was great. I couldn’t have asked for a more caring, giving, responsible and communicative sitter. Both myself and my dogs felt immediately at ease with her, and I never had to worry about my babies while I was gone. She catered to each dog individually and even bought them tons of delicious treats. If you are looking for a compassionate sitter, Alexis is the epitome! Don’t hesitate to book her. I know I’ll be using her time and time again!

Alexis and I have worked together in the animal care field for years and she’s incredible with dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. And of course cats too! She is always a life saver watching my little poodle mix who is very people selective and I always know he’s getting the best care possible! If you need a caring and reliable person to care for your fur babies she is it! 5/5 stars every time!

Safety, trust & environment

I can easily put your pet in their crate for calm crate time, take them for walks around the neighborhood or at a local park, go for car rides, or just play outside in your yard! I am very flexible and open to working with and learning your normal routine for your pets and doing anything I can to make you and them happy. I have experience with different types of animals besides just cats and dogs (if you need assistance in caring for other pets) and am happy to work with reactive/stranger danger animals as well with proper introductions.

Information Alexis S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are special requirements for your dogs. I have some experience with stranger danger dogs (I have quite a bit of experience working with a lot of them at the shelter) and am happy to accommodate to your pets needs. I also have experience with medicating pets on a specific schedule, so if your pet has medical needs that is no problem at all.

A typical day

I love taking my dog on car rides and to big open area parks (Joe Glick is my personal favorite) to go on long walks and hikes. I love doing enrichment activities with pets such as sniffari’s, puzzles, and training (both general and some breed-specific training). My cats love coming on hikes as well so I’ll often put them in their bubble backpack when we go out.
