Just excited to do what I love (:

Pet care experience

I’m 22 years old , I grew up with dogs / animals my entire life. My parents were involved in dog rescues, we were a foster home for homeless pets until we found them a safe home. I have always loved animals.I recently moved to Illinois because of the navy, this is where I’m stationed, yes I work but I’ll always be home around 3:30pm my work schedule is 6:30 am to 3:30pm. I do have a little corgi Aussie mix of my own, she’s very sweet and loves other dogs And people. I do have a backyard and my husband is always home about an hour after me and he’s also an animal lover (: if anyone prefers their dog not being around mine I am able to keep my girl put up, she’s very chill and will literally sleep all day in the bedroom. I’ve also done rover in Oklahoma for a bit before I came to Illinois so I do know a little bit about how it works. Once again my schedule is 6:30 am to 3:30 pm, unfortunately I cannot provide anything before 3:30, none of the visits let me edit to anything after 3pm, but I can assure that as soon as I’m off work I will be there. I do work on weekends sometimes but only a couple hours, and if I am not home my husband is. I have a fenced backyard and a friendly little corgi Aussie mix to keep any dog company, she loves visitors!! I actually do not mind anyone on the bed or furniture. I wake up to let the dogs outside around 6 on weekdays, and on weekends around 6-7, I love taking the dogs for a walk, during my lunch I stay home for about 45 minutes letting the dogs out again, and spending time with them. I get off around 3 and I’m back home (: I have a fenced backyard, also there is an enclosure nearby that some of my regulars love going to. Plenty of room to run around

Alexis has a friendly, kind and inviting manner. Her home is set up perfectly (safe and uncluttered) to provide boarding. Our dogs easily transitioned into Alexis’ care. Alexis provided good care, communicated readily, and very was accommodating. We will definitely look to Alexis when we need boarding for our dogs.

Ale is is very sweet to our baby and is always sending us updates and photos/videos, which we love. We have used her 4 times now and will again. Her schedule is very convenient for watching our girl. Skyis very comfortable with her, as are we.

If I need to keep them apart from other dogs please let me know, I can make sure to keep mine put up and separated. if I need to know of any allergies please let me know. Other than that I can take any information that you will find helpful for me.

A typical day

There’s plenty of space to go for walks outside, there’s a little fenced backyard to play around in, if your dog likes other dogs there’s also an enclosure nearby where others take their fur babies to play, I’ve taken my little Stella there a few times and she loves it. Other than that I do have my little Stella to keep anyone company she’s very playful and gentle.
