Animal lover w/ experience
Pet care experience
I have grown up with many pets my whole life, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with a furry friend . I am a student right now at VCU doing rover in my free time. I have been doing rover for 3 years now, and before that I worked at a vet as a kennel assistant for 2 years so I have experience with all types of dogs and cats. I love both large and small breeds, and I know how to handle a dog that is high energy. I have also raised my 2 puppies from 8 weeks old, so I have a ton of experience with puppies and I would love to walk/ take care of puppies as well as adult dogs. I am also open to pets outside of dogs and cats, and I have experience with reptiles. Please feel free to message me if you would like me to drop in or watch a pet, and we can discuss details.
Reviews
Exceptional! One of my pups had not eaten and generally does not eat when I'm traveling. She responded to Lexy very well ... and that pup is a great judge of character! :-) Lexy sent pictures each day, and left my apartment clean and tidy.
Lexy has taken care of my dog child, a 15 year old Maltese who is elderly and requires special care, multiple times now. I can confidently say I trust her completely to take care of my house, my dog, and my sanity anytime I go out of town. She truly goes above and beyond in every way, and i feel SO lucky to have found such a great, caring, reliable pet sitter. Highest recommendation!!
Lexy did a great job with Huda. She was attentive to her and instantly bonded with her which eased my nerves about leaving her for a few days. She was responsive and sent pictures to keep me posted on how she was doing.
Lexi was great. She sent me pictures every day of my kitties. And when I came home, the house was clean and you wouldn’t even realize someone stayed there the whole time. At the end of the day she really enjoyed hanging out with my cats and I just needed someone to really love on them to make sure they were OK because it they get separation anxiety.

I have 2 dogs and 2 cats back home as well as my own 2 cats here in Richmond, so I am experienced in caring for both dogs and cats. I can do slow walks for lower energy dogs, or runs with a high energy dog, I am open to anything. I can also play with your pets or cuddle with them if they get lonely. I can work with you on any accommodations / health needs and make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable.
Information Lexy D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special medical needs, exercise requirements, or if they have behavioral issues or aggressive tendencies at all.
A typical day
On a typical day, I would love to walk your dog around their favorite spot, play with them with some fun toys if they would like, and maybe even reward them with some treats.
