I will make sure to provide you with the best Wag! experience possible and make sure your dog is loved and taken care for.

“Full time. Any dog. Any weather. Extended hours :)”
Dog walking is my life! I can read dogs very well and quickly gain their trust and obedience. I’m great with high energy dogs, stubborn dogs, dogs that pull, dogs that snap, escape artists, dogs with dominance issues, dogs with triggers, handling multiple dogs at once and any other scenario concerning safety. I’m gentle, affectionate, attentive, protective, and caring and will provide the perfect experience no matter your dog’s size, breed, or temperament. Thanks for choosing me as your walker!

Hello, my name is Alexander Klein, and I LOVE ANIMALS! I have had animals- mainly dogs- for my entire life, and I love and respect them. I am a college graduate with a Bachelor's of Science in Information Technology concentrating on Security. I am working at Wag! not because it is my field of training but because it is my passion- although that is not to say that I am not knowledgeable about dogs and other animals. The first dog I got to call my very own brother was given to me after my parent's dogs passed away. That dog, named Knight, was my absolute best friend and brother, and I cared for him for 15 years- his entire life.
