Safety, trust & environment

I have had experience taking dogs out in apartment settings, and also fenced in yards. I am happy to accommodate any pet's dietary needs. I know all pets have different needs and personalities, and I would love to play with them, or just sit and love on them depending on what they like. I have experience walking dogs from 6lbs to 100lbs. I walk my 85lb dog daily, and in my free time, I walk dogs at the animal shelter. I have had a lot of experience in different environments and situations, and with different temperaments and breeds.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Alecia! I have always loved animals, and growing up, our family had more pet than people in our household. I learned early on how to care for many different types of animals, and neighbors and friends started to rely on me to help watch their pets. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, bunnies, ferrets, you name it! Recently, I have mainly helped care for cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. I own a senior cat, and a 3 year old doberman. My senior cat is an adopted stray, who loves to sunbathe and take naps. I have cared for and trained my doberman from 8 weeks old. He struggles with anxiety, and needs lots of mental and physical stimulation, and overall attention, to help put him at ease. We love to go for our daily walks together, play ball, work on obedience, and cuddle on the couch together. Being a pet parent myself, I completely understand how difficult it can be to leave your pets in someone else's care. I hope I can ease people's minds by being there for people's pets, and loving them the way I love my own pets.

Alecia was so good with our pup! She followed directions, kept us updated, and even asked questions to make sure he was well cared for! We will definitely book her again!

Alecia was very responsive and gave us peace of mind while caring for our puppy, who needed extra supervision and attention at his age. We appreciated the photos and updates!
