I make pet care a priority in my daily and weekly routine. Even if I’m busy during the day on weekends, I schedule dedicated time for walks, feeding, and play so pets get the attention they need. I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule to meet each pet’s needs and ensuring they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away.

At home or in my client's space, my approach revolves around reliability, clear communication, and genuine affection for every furry friend. I prioritize establishing a routine that mirrors their home environment to minimize stress, while maintaining open channels of communication with pet owners to address any concerns or preferences.

Information Alice B. would like to know about your pet

Understanding important details about your pet before caring for them is crucial for ensuring their well-being and happiness. Here are some key things for me to know ahead of time: Health and Medical Needs Behavior and Temperament Routine and Preferences Household Rules and Training Likes and Dislikes By gathering this information ahead of time, I can provide personalized care that meets your pet's individual needs and ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for both the pet and myself : )

A typical day

Considering the dog's preferences, energy level, and any specific needs or limitations they may have when choosing activities, these are some things I'd love to do with your pet. Of course safety should always be the top priority and I will check in with you before choosing to engage in any of the below: Play Fetch: Engage in a game of fetch with their favorite toy or a ball in a safe, enclosed area. Go for a Walk: Take them on a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or to a nearby park to explore new scents and sights. Visit a Dog Park: If they're social and enjoy the company of other dogs, a trip to the dog park can be a great way to burn off energy and socialize. Interactive Toys: Provide puzzle toys or treat-dispensing toys to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. Training Sessions: Spend some time reinforcing basic commands or teaching them new tricks. Training can be both mentally stimulating and bonding. Snuggle Time: Set aside some quiet time for cuddles and relaxation, which can be comforting for both you and the dog. Nature Hike: If they enjoy the outdoors, take them on a gentle hike on dog-friendly trails, ensuring they're comfortable with the level of activity.

Alice is an extremely loving, caring, and reliable pet caregiver. She was a wonderful pet parent to her own dogs as well as a nurturing pet aunt to the pets of many of her friends, going so far as to stay overnight for several nights to pet sit. She is a mature, responsible individual in all aspects and can be counted on to provide loving care to anyone in her charge, human or otherwise.

Alice is incredible! Very attentive and loving towards pets with patient, calming energy. She's watched my bull terrier and did it with ease - any bt owner knows they're a handful!! Alice is someone you can trust with your fur child. Wish she hadn't moved away, can't recommend her enough.
