Information Alix S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to welcome your dog or dogs into my home as one of our own. Guest dogs are treated as family. With this in mind I would love to know what makes your pup feel most comfortable. Routine, schedule, favorite toy, etc. Unfortunately I am unable to have Pit Bull guests at this time.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks in the neighborhood and to nearby parks. There are several options for walking dogs right around my home. There is a 1 mile paved walking path around the nearby school. There is a 2 mile option that takes us past the nearby shopping center. And there is a 3 mile option that includes bike and hiking trails. My neighborhood has a walking path to meet the needs of any breed. I have an additional charge of $10 for dogs over 50 pounds and $20 for dogs over 85 pounds. Holiday rates apply to the following- Christmas/New Year's Spring Break Labor Day Memorial Day Fourth of July Summer (June 15 through Labor Day weekend)

*Please note holiday and additional rates below Hi! I'm Alix and I am a Rover Premier Sitter! I am home FULL TIME and am a mommy to kids and pets alike! I honestly cannot even pinpoint a specific moment in time that I started loving dogs; I just have ALWAYS loved them! My family consists of four human children and four fur children. My three dogs, Petey, Ruffles and Peanut as well as our cat, Oliver. Trust me they love having new guests to play with! Everyone gets along and our motto is, 'the more the merrier'! I am willing to travel up to 10 miles from my home to pick up and drop off your pup, for an additional fee. Please feel free to contact me for details or with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pup(s)! As a Rover Premier Sitter I have passed a phone interview and a representative of Rover has come to inspect my home and meet me face to face. Since I am home FULL TIME your dog(s) will rarely be alone. If I must run out for groceries or to pick up the kids, I am gone only briefly. There is an additional charge of $10 for dogs over 50 pounds and $20 for dogs over 85 pounds. Rates are for a 24 hour period. Generally 10 am to 10 am the following day. Extended times are subject to an additional charge.

Absolutely incredible!! We are so lucky to find Alix. She treated our dog as if she was her own. We felt that she was in excellent care and so much appreciate Alix for giving our dog so much love, care and attention while we were away on vacation

Amazing experience. This was my dogs first time staying with a sitter and Alix was loving and kind. We just rebooked her again.

Thanks so much for watching Levi and being flexible on timing so he was able to experience the beach/ocean while we were out in California!

Just wonderful. We have a very shy dog and Alix took the best care of her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
