Alex P.
“Alex Peek is a loving, caring individual with a positive aura and a strong love for pets. Given this, she is able to gain the love of many different kinds of pets. I invited her into my home to look over my cat Marvin, who’s very shy and slow-to-warm when it comes to new people. Despite this, he instantly adored Alex— approaching them with love and care even though they’d just met just several minutes ago. I also have a dog named Simba who’s older and more loving, and Alex fell in love with him also. They are very attentive and loving towards all animals, and I am doubtless that she will provide the utmost love and care for your furry friends.”
