Loving pet sitter, works from home!
Pet care experience
I’ve had pets since I was a child and as a young adult I began fostering for a local dog rescue. I’ve helped train several puppies to get them ready for a new home and adopted one myself. She is a happy, loving dog who is leash reactive so I also have experience walking a dog who struggles on the leash. My other dog is a small older man that I rescued as an adult. He loves cuddles and hates getting his medicine, but we have a good routine set and he is no longer afraid. My nine year old daughter provides a fun energy for playful pups or a great cuddle buddy for more mellow dogs as well.
Reviews
My cat has always been well cared for whenever I need Alyx’s help. It’s a big relief knowing that I can travel when needed, and my cat loves Alyx and her kid!
Fantastic Animal lover!
Great walk on late notice. I would highly recommend Alyx! I will definitely use Alyx again!
Alyx made sure to get to know my cat and make her feel comfortable before our first booking. She was patient and worked with my instructions, even when I had to make some unexpected changes. She took lots of pictures of my cat for me at every drop-in, which helped put my mind at ease. And she is better at taking pictures of my wiggly cat than I am! I’ll try to work with Alyx in my future bookings as well!

Safety, trust & environment
I am always around to give the dogs attention and make sure to take them out for walks and bathroom breaks several times throughout the day. I make sure to set alarms for important tasks such as medicine and their preferred meal times so nothing gets missed. My home is secure and all food is kept up and the trash is lidded. On walks, I make sure to walk my dogs separately from guests to reduce risk and I bring treats, bags, and safety tools with incase a loose dog approaches.
Information Alyx M. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know how your dog prefers to be walked, if they have any uncommon boundaries (ex: doesn’t like to be pet on the head) and any health needs so I can add it into my alarms!
A typical day
If you’re comfortable with it, we love to go to the dog park. My playful dog also loves to share her toys and rough house. I have puzzle toys for treats and me and my daughter love to play with and cuddle any dogs in the home!

Availability
I work from home so I’m always available to have dogs in my home. I also take my dogs to the dog park a few times a week and would be able to bring your dog with if that is something they enjoy and you’re comfortable with.
