About Pawlosophy

Our Team and Our Owner

Pawlosophy was founded by Alexis and fellow rescue volunteer. After a number of less than stellar experiences with other walking and sitting services, they decided it was time to seize the opportunity to offer the kind of unparalleled service that they expected for their own special needs pets. In the Fall of 2010, they started Pawlosophy - a new standard in pet care.

Alexis was raised on the north side of Chicago. She has B.A.s in Geography and Physical Anthropology. Her early professional life was spent in the Financial Industry, where she worked for 10 years, mostly at the CBOE and CME. She is passionate about development work and has served in the Peace Corps as well as participated in international development projects in several countries. She has been pet sitting since she was in high school, and has 20+ years experience caring for animals, both personally and professionally. We work with a variety of trainers, behaviorists, holistic veterinarians, animal massage therapists, animal nutritional specialists, as well as other industry professionals that can help improve our customer's pet’s quality of life.
