Hi, my name is Alex! I have 3 years experience working with children and adults with special needs in a professional and private setting, I have worked with various breeds of dogs, and served as a live-in care aide for an elderly woman for 8 months. You could say I'm a jack of all trades! I have worked for local governments such as Westchester County Parks & Recreation and the City of Virginia Beach EMS Dept. to serving our country as soldier in the Army. It would be my pleasure to care for your loved one. I own a vehicle and have a valid VA driver's license with a safe driving record. I do not smoke. My other specialties include writing succinctly and creatively since I have a Bachelor's in English. I love working with people all of backgrounds and I hope you'll consider me to offer affordable and accessible home care.
I hired Alex as a live-in caregiver for my 2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer dog, Dutchess for 1 week. Dutchess is very important to me and I had never been gone that long, so I was extremely anxious about it. However, Alex assured me before and during my week vacation that everything would run smoothly. That is totally an understatement. Alex is professional, punctual and knows the right questions to ask (does your dog have allergies, where do you keep dog cleaning supplies, treats, etc.), even things I didn't think about! Another thing about Alex I really appreciated, was her ability to check in at the right moments & send photo updates! I never felt like she was intruding on my vacation, but also assuring me everything was okay while I was gone. Bonus is that Alex is a very active dog sitter and really helped my pup get her steps in and she collected my mail. She is extraordinary and I feel very comfortable leaving Dutchess in her hands. I will absolutely hire her again.
