Highlights
Pet care experience
I've never pet a dog I didn't like!
I grew up with German Shepherds and later in life adopted a 70lb shy and anxious pit bull named Watson. With him I learned all about caring for a pet with anxiety and how to help them become relaxed and comfortable. One of my most fulfilling accomplishments was to see him become a confident and relaxed pup. I am a very patient pet owner and I love getting exercise with pets. I also volunteered at Best Friends Animal Society. I always found it a little difficult to entrust my dog to others since he had many unique needs so I want to give you the piece of mind I was able to find when I found the right people to help. I feel very confident with all sizes and breeds and I'll be very happy to reinforce all the commands and rules your pet has learned. I want Rover to be my main source of income so my schedule is very flexible and it's very likely I can arrange a last minute walk or visit. I am at home most of the day other than small errands. I also live with my wife who is happy to help when not at work Can't wait to meet you and your dog!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Salim & Alexandra were amazing! They went above and beyond for my Shawn! I received daily updates and amazing photos. They followed all instructions and were accommodating when my schedule unexpectedly changed. This was the first time I left Shawn with people he didn’t know and they made the experience easy! He had so much fun! Will definitely use them again in the future!
Salim & Alexandra were fantastic. Emma was well taken care and happy, I received daily pictures, and they were so pleasant to work with. 10/10
Salim and Alexandra are great with Oscar. He loves staying there and when I drop him off he's so exited to be there. I know he's in good hands.
They did a great job on short notice. Super responsive and made sure my dog had the best care that he needed. I’d absolutely recommend them!
They took great care of our dog. We had very specific rules for our dog during mealtimes which Salim & Alex reinforced. Our dog came back relaxed and happy. Salim & Alex kept us updated with pics and messages. We would be happy to leave our dog with them again!
This was Sonic's second stay with Salim & Alexandra, and it was just as great as the first! They kept me up to date with adorable photos of Sonic, were so easy to communicate with, and everything was smooth sailing for the entirety of my trip. Sonic is comfortable and relaxed around them, and he is clearly well taken care of while I'm away. Definitely highly recommend them!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have an apartment with a big front yard. After living with my 70lb pit bull for 11 years I know all the tricks of having a pet in my home and how to keep them safe.
A typical day
I believe that exercise is key for a balanced dog, so we will focus on activities and play so that you come back home to a relaxed and happy go lucky pet.
