About the caregiver

Hello, my name is Lexi. I worked for Wag! as my full time job many many years ago. I decided to trade it in for a career as a zookeeper! After an eventful 4 year journey working with exotic animals, I have decided to take time away and pursue other careers and further my education. While I have stepped away from zookeeping I do still miss making bonds with animals and felt I should return to pet sitting part-time. I live in a house with a small to medium fenced in backyard. I also have an atrium that can remain open, allowing your cat or dog 24/7 access to outside area without need for supervision. My roommate is currently a manager at a zoo, so that’s double the attention for your pet! I do have 2 cats, Cleo who avoids any other living thing, and Tilly who will befriend any species that allows her to. If your pet does not get along with cats no worries, I have plenty available space in my home to section off areas for my cats to roam and be separated from visitors. For work I manage an escape room downtown that can get pretty slow at times. I am willing and able to bring a pet to work and offer potty breaks every hour if not more frequently. If not ideal for the pet or pet owner, my shifts are anywhere from 7-9 hours long. Potty breaks while I’m at work can be assisted by my roommate by letting them into the backyard and/or we can leave the atrium open. Walks and car rides will be done by me only. Everything else can be determined by what is preferred by the pet owner.
