Pet care experience

Calm, Reliable Overnight Care ❤️

Cincinnati-based pet sitter specializing in calm, attentive overnight housesitting, available seven days a week (I spend the night in your home). I'm happy to take on longer, extended stays too, with arrival and departure scheduled before or after standard weekday hours. I now offer dog walks and drop-in visits within about a 10-minute walk of Over-the-Rhine, and housesitting within roughly a 20-minute walk (this range may adjust). I also still love caring for my longtime families in Hyde Park and Oakley, so please reach out if you're outside that area. Cats are my specialty, and I genuinely love dogs too, from energetic pups to seniors with mobility needs. I've also cared for fish, chickens, frogs, plants and sourdough starter! 😂😻🐶 I provide a steady, low-stress environment for pets who are shy, sensitive, or simply do best with consistency and a quiet presence during overnight stays. I bring 10+ years as a petsitter and a background as a flight attendant, which shaped my clear communication, reliability, and focus on safety so you can feel at ease while away.

Safety, trust & environment

I take my time getting to know new pets, especially shy cats or dogs with anxiety. I let them set the pace, whether that means a cautious sniff or immediate playtime. Your pets’ comfort always comes first.

Alecia is an absolutely incredible dog sitter. She kept me regularly informed of how Bobbis day went and sent lots of pics. In addition she left the house in immaculate condition and Bobbi seemed incredibly chilled and relaxed when I got home. Bobbi also has some special requirements due to previous health injuries and again she accommodated these so well. A huge thank you Alecia.

Alecia is great, we could not have asked for a better dog and house sitter! She was very responsive, sent great photos of our pups each day, and was sweet and gentle with our more timid pup, Roger!

Alecia was wonderful to work with and took great care of our pets and home. She sent daily updates and was easy to communicate with every step of the way.

Once again Alecia took care of everything while we were gone. This is our third time having Alecia and she does an amazing job with our needy animals. Both are old, with bad hips, both are a bit strange, one needs to be carried up the stairs and given meds, etc... She does it all and really seems to care. We love that she works from home so doesn't leave the animals alone for extended periods (they also have separation anxiety) and she's always sending cute updates and leaving nice notes. 11 out of 10 - would recommend and will be asking her again for our next trip if she is available.

Schedule

🌙 I offer overnight housesitting: I spend every night in your home, so your pets keep their normal routine. Housesitting always includes me staying overnight for the full length of your trip, and leaving shortly before you arrive home. I'm also happy to take on longer or extended housesits, with arrival and departure scheduled before or after standard weekday hours. ☀️ If you're looking for daytime-only visits without an overnight stay, drop-in visits would be the better fit. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits within about a 10-minute walk of Over-the-Rhine, and housesitting within roughly a 20-minute walk (this range may adjust). I also welcome bookings from my longtime Hyde Park, Oakley and Pleasant Ridge families; just message me and we'll sort out details. I keep my calendar updated regularly, so if you see dates available, I'm open! Please reach out with a little advance notice so we can set up a quick video meet-and-greet before your trip.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Alecia can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
✅ Before confirming any booking, I require a brief video meet-and-greet with you and your pets. This meeting usually takes 10-15 minutes and will be done through Google Meet (I'll provide a link). After our meeting, I'll request important info in writing, even if we’ve discussed it verbally. Let me know about any behavioral quirks, medical needs, anxieties, or escape habits so I can care for your pet safely and confidently.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
