About Alessandro

Ever since childhood, I’ve had an innate bond with animals that extends beyond a simple affinity. Growing up surrounded by pets, I learned to understand their unspoken needs and emotions early on. This deep connection is what led me to pursue pet sitting as more than just a job—it's a calling that I genuinely enjoy. Whether it's the quiet comfort of a cat curled up beside me or the infectious excitement of a dog bounding through the door, being around animals feels natural.

Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets in various unique situations. For example, I once worked with a family who had a Great Dane with severe separation anxiety. Over time, I implemented a routine that included calming techniques and scheduled playtime, helping to ease the dog's stress and improve her overall behavior.

I also had the opportunity to care for a diabetic cat named Whiskers, who required daily insulin shots. Ensuring his medication was administered properly while keeping his environment stress-free became a daily routine I embraced with precision and care. His owners later remarked how healthy and happy he was upon their return.

One of my most memorable experiences involved an African Grey parrot named Merlin. Not only did I need to manage his diet and regular cage cleanings, but I also kept him entertained by mimicking his favorite phrases and playing interactive games that engaged his sharp intelligence. His owners even commented that he had picked up new phrases by the time they got back!

These kinds of diverse experiences have taught me how to adapt to the specific needs of each pet, from high-energy dogs that need structured exercise to cats who appreciate quiet, cozy spaces. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, secure, and as happy as they are when you’re home.

In addition to my passion for pets, I’m committed to their health and well-being. I have a strict policy of only accepting vaccinated pets to maintain a safe, healthy environment for everyone. My goal is to offer more than just a service—I aim to provide a home away from home, where your pet feels loved, secure, and content.

When you leave your pet with me, you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced, compassionate hands. They’re not just clients; they’re family, and I ensure they receive the same love and care you’d give them.
