Purr-Fectly Devoted VIP Sitter 😻
Pet care experience
Hello! I am an experienced housesitter/petsitter who works exclusively with cats. Born and raised in Cincinnati, I’m back after living in Chicago for several years. As an only child, I always had lots of animal "siblings" to keep me company when I was little. I have grown to respect and adore animals and the people who love them. After some time spent caring for dogs, cats, fish and even chickens, I’ve realized that I get along best with cats. As a former flight attendant, I am used to handling new situations with flexibility, patience and humor. Your cat has routines that keep them healthy and happy, and it’s my goal to adhere to those routines as much as possible. With me they'll receive plenty of attention, fresh water and food on time, and freshly-scooped litter. And they'll be spoiled with cuddles of course. :) I travel with my own laser pointer and love to engage cats in playtime. In addition to caring for your furbaby, your home will be covered while you’re away. Checking for mail and packages will be part of my daily to-do list, and I'm known for leaving homes at least a little cleaner than they were when I arrived. I’m good with plants too - most of my previous sits have included those tasks.
Reviews
Alecia was wonderful from the moment she came to meet the cats. She was clearly very excited to meet them and was definitely a cat person. She asked a lot of good questions about care and my preferences. When we got home both cats were relaxed and clearly were well taken care of. I am a nervous cat mom but leaving her to watch the house helped me feel they were looked after! She also sent me tons of pictures and a few videos. I will use Alecia again for sure.
Alecia was wonderful. She looked after my kitty while I was away on a trip. Communication was smooth and she took excellent care of my baby. Thank you Alecia!
Alecia is an amazing pet sitter! Took fantastic care of my two cats while I was out of town for the week, and provided great updates each day. Look forward to having her look after my cats again!
Alecia is amazing. She is great with my kitties, attentive to detail, and communicates about what is going on with them. She stayed here for four days, and I came back to a home that was as clean as when I left it. Thank you, Alecia! I was lucky to find her through Rover and hope she can help next time I travel!

Safety, trust & environment
I take my time when getting to know a new cat. If they’re shy I let them sniff my hand and then let them decide how to proceed. When entering a home, I enter slowly and block the door in case there’s a kitty who likes to sprint outside!!
Information Alecia L. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know your kitty’s routine, favorite hiding places, and preferred toys and treats. I’d also like to find out about any medications they may need and any special attention they may require. Before our service begins, I require a brief meet-and-greet with you and your cat(s). Meetings via video chat are complimentary. (Zoom, Skype, Google Hangouts, Facetime, etc) If you would prefer a 30-minute in-person meeting I ask for a $25 consultation fee, which I will add to your Rover total prior to the start of service. This covers my time and gas. If I should decide it’s not a good match (rare!), 100% of your money, including this fee, will be refunded. If you change your mind (also rare), the fee is forfeited. ***I also consider REVIEWS as part of my compensation! Please leave a brief review after the service ends, this really helps. :-) I'll do everything I can to ensure that you'll want to leave a glowing review. Book with me ASAP!
A typical day
Cats give so much love, and it's a joy to return the favor. Every cat has his or her own unique personality and it's such a treat to learn about each one.

Availability
I am a cat companion who also works remotely. As long as you have high-speed internet and a place for me to lay my head, I'll be okay. :) As long as you see the dates available on my calendar, I’ll be available for your cat(s)!
