About: I am very flexible with hours. I am an active person and happy to play with your pet and walk them as much as needed. I grew up in the cold, so weather doesn't bother me walking or driving. I also am willing to work with your hours and do what is best for your pet. I also am always happy to send pictures and check in so you know they are living your best life. I can be flexible but I am a morning person so early walks are okay with me. I can also drop in easily through the day with little issue. I grew up with large dogs (lover (100lbs) and 2 cats, and am the current owner of a Bernese Mountain dog who I love. I love all animals but tend to lean to bigger dogs. I like cats butdon't currently own one due to my husband. I am newer to rover but have spent a lot of time caring for my own pets but also dog sitting for others in their homes over the last 7 years.

I selected Alicia to help us with Karmas walks during my hip replacement surgery recovery. She and Karma became fast friends immediateky. Eighteen walks later it was sad to say goodbye. Alicia is very kind, prompt, flexible and trustworthy just to make a few. We are blessed to have been able to have her help us!

Crystal was so accommodating and great with our 2 dogs while I was away. She provided me with updates and made being away from my babies a lot less stressful. We will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you for everything, Crystal!

With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I truly love caring for all animals, and I focus on giving each pet exactly what they need—whether that’s gentle patience, extra playtime, or a calm, confident presence. I have experience with puppy training, including basic commands, crate training, and reinforcing good habits. I’m also comfortable with senior pet care, providing slow walks, medication reminders, and lots of compassion for pets who need a little extra support. I take the time to learn each animal’s personality, routines, and comfort levels so they feel safe, understood, and loved. Your pet’s happiness and well-being always come first with me. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I plan my mornings and evenings to include feeding, exercise, and any special routines your pet needs, and I always leave space in my week for extra time with animals who need more supervision, training, or comfort. Because I genuinely love spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like an interruption—it’s something I look forward to and prioritize. Your pet’s routine becomes my routine, so they feel comfortable, supported, and well-loved every day. Whether pets stay with me or I care for them in their own home, I provide safe, consistent, and attentive care tailored to their routine. In my home: I offer a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with structured feeding, walks, and enrichment. I follow your pet’s schedule closely and provide supervision, comfort, and appropriate space for rest or play. In your home: I maintain your pet’s normal routine, environment, and comfort. I handle feeding, walks, medications, and clean pet areas while respecting your home and providing reliable communication and updates. Across all services: My focus is safety, reliability, and individualized care for every pet—from energetic puppies to seniors needing extra support.
