“Ana was great! She responded super fast, and was nice enough to do a meet and greet (my dog can get anxious in new settings, so meet and greets are important to me). Lola felt right at home! Ana sent daily pictures, and it looked like Lola had a great time. We will definitely ask Ana to host Lola again next time I need to go out of town. Thanks Ana!”
“Gravy the mutt came home happy and well loved. He has only been elsewhere three times in his almost three years of age. One of those times he came home piddling on everything and we haven’t let him elsewhere until now. Erika and Jason did a phenomenal job of treating him like family and we are so very thankful. Highly recommend and will use again 💕💕💕”
“Kirsten was amazing with Jack! She sent pictures everyday and he looked like he was having the time of his life! She was also very flexible when I had to change my pickup time due to a flight cancellation. I appreciate her so much and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Cheryl was great! She sent frequent updates, took lots of pictures, and my boys looked happy. This was my first time leaving my boys with someone. I was not totally stress free because lets face it, I am a mom, but I was pretty dang close to stress free thanks to Cherly. She gave them exercise, relaxed with them, played with them, and overall gave them the best care and affection! She even helped me do some foundational and potty training for my 4 month old puppy. Thank you Cheryl for being the best dog mom and care taker!! I appreciate you so so so much!”
“Nicole was great at caring for our Boo. She recognized and understood how to make him feel comfortable when he missed us. She sent videos of Boo frolicking with her dog and wagging his tail, showing us that he was adapting well to his stay. We really appreciated that since we are not away from him for prolonged periods. It meant a lot to us.”
“Our dog Lady had the time of her life with David, Krysta, their boys, and her new best friends, Archie & Flash. We were heading to the beach for a portion of our vacation, and our condo did not allow pets. We needed her to be nearby and found David and Krysta through Rover. We got great pictures and videos of her time with the family, and their nice backyard and house was perfect for her. She was treated like a member of their family. In fact, when we got there to pick her up, she was trying to go back in their house and keep playing. :) So thankful we found this nice family to take such wonderful care of Lady!”
“Dana took such a great care of our pup Whiskey we are so thankful to of found her! She sent updates and pictures daily I would definitely recommend her. Thank you Dana!!”
“If I could rate her higher than a 5, I would! Alexandra was so patient with my older dog. I had no doubt after our meet and greet that she was the perfect person for my fur baby, Nellie. Nellie has to take meds 2x/d and Alexandra was very comfortable doing this. I was delayed in coming home. Alexandra was so nice to continue to take care of Nellie until I arrived, which put me at ease. Nellie loved her and her 2 dogs. She will always be my first choice to care for Ms. Nellie!”
“Grizzly Bear and Chief think that Charlie's house is their second home. They love to visit Charlie and her family - and they make themselves right at home!!! They also like to spend time with other furry friends. They will be back soon!”
“Amazing. We were first timers and we were able to enjoy our vacation worry free. I know he was loved and cared for and she provided lots of photos to show how much fun he was having. Very nice and flexible. We appreciated her so much.”
“My dog is older with separation anxiety and Susan handled it with such grace! She gave the best care I have ever gotten from a dog sitter. She provided me with many updates when I was out of town that made me feel so at ease that he was in good hands! She was also very quick at responding whenever I reached out! I was blown away with her care for me as a dog owner and my pup allowing him to be comfortable with whatever he wanted/needed. I would recommend her to all people needing dog care!”
“We are so grateful to have had Heather watch Rex while we were on vacation. She was so sweet and sent us pictures everyday. The whole family loved on him and he was well taken care of. He even barked and tried to go back in her house when we came to pick him up! 😂”
“Amanda and her family welcomed Trixie into their home as one of their own. Trixie is a little shy and they understood her boundaries and gave her all the love she needed, and by the end of her stay she was besties with one of their dogs. Their pets are so so so sweet, and they respected the things we do for Trixie at home in their house. We were out of the country and Amanda responded anytime I reached out with pictures and updates. Her family was so sweet to our dog and they were just so welcoming. I would absolutely recommend Amanda as a sitter anytime and Trixie would agree!”
“Chris took very good care of our little Evie. We received daily updates with pictures or videos. He was very accommodating. Highly recommend him.”
“Kelly and Jenson are a true puppy sitting team! We recently traveled from Texas to Florida for a week and they were SO accommodating, punctual, and loved my puppy so much! We felt so blessed to be able to trust our pup baby with them. We will DEFINITELY be using them in the fall when we come back. Please consider hiring them if you’re looking for trusting and caring individuals to take care of your fur babies.”
“I highly recommend using Kameliya for dog boarding! She was very nice and provided pictures and updates about my dog. Will use again if needed.”
“Lina was amazing! She and her sweet family took great care of our Yorkie while we were at the beach! We were updated regularly with photos and videos. She even bathed our Kiwi and put little pink pig tails in her hair before we picked her up.”
“Thank you so much Ryan & family! You took such great care of Belle! Thank you for the fun pictures too! So happy to find your family to help us out. We promise to ask you again next time we have to go out of town!”
“Jordan & Jack are so incredible! If you want professional kindness, care, and compassion … they are the best choice! We have a pup who requires so much extra love and help and we trust them completely with our best boy! Thanks again!”
About: Hello, my name is Alexandra and I have worked with exotic animals and domestic animals for 15 years. I have worked in emergency veterinary medicine for 7 years now and LOVE it. I have handled extremely aggressive animals, scared animals, hyper, calm, and any other behavior you can think of. I have treated more critical animals then I can count and can handle anything thrown my way :). I have watched multiple older fur babies as well. If your baby needs injections or medications I can assure you I can do it. I also specialize in neonatal care. I have raised many 1 day old (or even a couple hours old found outside) kittens, puppies, squirrels, and raccoons. I look forward to meeting new fur babies.

“Alexandra was, and is, the best dog sitter I have ever used. She has tons of experience as an emergency head vet tech, so you can always feel at ease when leaving. On one occasion when I was actually out of the country on vacation, my dog had eaten some of the stuffing out of his dog bed. When Alexandra came in, she noticed that he wasn’t acting right and immediately took him to the vet for treatment. I will never use anyone else.”
