About Alexandra
I am a veterinarian and had the opportunity to work with wildlife like a zookeeper at a zoo in Colombia. This job allowed me to face various challenges and apply my knowledge in the care of different animals. Working with diverse species has improved my skills in addressing unique needs and behaviors with patience and dedication.
At home, I have 8 cats and 3 dogs, which has given me a deeper understanding of pet care. This personal experience has strengthened my ability to handle different personalities and ensure that each animal receives the appropriate attention.
Currently, I am studying English and believe it would be ideal to use my experience in animal care to support my studies and stay in Australia. My goal is to provide pet owners with peace of mind, knowing their pets will be well cared for. I am committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment for all pets in my care, ensuring they receive the best possible attention.

Additional Services:
Dog walking: Walks are a minimum of 30 minutes and can be adjusted according to your pet’s needs. Walks are conducted in the neighborhood and nearby parks if available. During walks, I will ensure shade if needed, fresh water, and if the animal usually has snacks, I will bring them as well.
Safety Measures:
I ensure to follow specific instructions to maintain the safety and well-being of your pet and your home. I am very flexible and open to any recommendations provided by the owner. My goal is to provide the utmost confidence that your pet is in good hands, and I am committed to offering the same love and care as if they were my own pets or patients.
