Looking to meet my new best friend!

Pet care experience

Ever since I was a child animals have always been a huge love so I started caring for them at a young age. This includes dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, wild and domesticated rabbits and more. Working at the veterinarian hospital has been a highlight in my life getting to spend time and take care of the pets there! This job consists of feeding, walking, bathing, and administering medication of varying forms. I am currently working as a vet tech at an emergency animal hospital. I’m available for house sitting reservations anytime within reason. I am flexible to schedules as long as you communicate with me in advance! I will hangout with your fur baby both inside and out, depending on their and your preference (weather permitting of course.) I like to run and walk so if they enjoy that we can absolutely do that. However, I also like to just hangout inside if they are more on the lazy/cuddly side of things! It all depends on your and their preferences!

Lexie is great! She always responds to messages right away, arrives on time to check on my pets, and keeps me updated with pictures. She took the time to get to know my shy cat and make sure she ate her food while she was there. I definitely trust her to take good care of my animals when I’m gone!

Lexie was amazing! She was available short notice when we had a planned care fall thru. She responded quickly to messages, got along great with our pups and took good care of them! She provided tons of pictures while we were away. She also maintained our home for us. We will definitely have her stay again! She is a gem! ~ April

Lexie was the BEST!!! We received lots of pictures and texts. We never had to worry! Lexie played with Jax and took him out to play. We will definitely request Lexie to sit with Jax again♥️?

Lexie was fabulous with our two mini dachshunds. She communicated extremely well, sent pictures, and eased me of my worries! One is very old and one has separation issues and both did awesome! It felt great to be able to go away and know our pups were well taken care of. The house looked great when we arrived at home and both dogs were happy! We will definitely have her back! Thanks, Lexie!
