Highlights
Pet care experience
Long time petsitter and lover!
Hey there! I'm Alice. I started dogsitting in college and have cared for every kind of dog, from puppies to seniors. I also love cats (so much so that I get weekly allergy shots to snuggle with them). I spent several years as a foster for Saving Grace NC, where I cared for dogs with high medical needs. Today I'm lucky to live in a home with a fenced in back yard where pets can have supervised sniff adventures. I work from home and don't travel much, so I'm available to care for your animals and give them all the attention they deserve.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in back yard and never leave a dog outside unsupervised. I'm diligent about leaving every home I visit better than I found it, and love to send clients photos of their pets while they're on their travels.
Ratings and reviews
Alice is a selfless, proactive pet owner and carer the likes of which I’ve never seen before. Her immense love and care not only for her own animals, but for her community’s, is well known, and there isn’t a single person I know that doesn’t trust her and her diligence entirely. She has made me a better pet owner and I can’t wait for her to take care of my cats again soon.
Over the last year or two, Alice has provided several in house sits for our finicky pitties. Honestly, when we come home, they seem a little bummed to see us and not Alice. Alice deploys scritches and snuggles like they're going out of style, always cleans up post-zoomies, and does a great job providing plenty of photos and canine signs of life. Alice is so good, in fact, that we recently recommended her to a friend. Thanks for everything, Alice! We appreciate you.
Alice is the best. She was attentive and communicative when staying with my pup, who was THRILLED whenever she arrived. I would happily recommend her for walks, stays, or anything in between. 10 out of 10, only good things to say!
Alice loves pets, and has a great sense for their unique personalities and needs. My dog Herc was going through some tummy stuff once before I left him with Alice. He’s an anxious small dog and sometimes those issues can result in a pretty bad spiral! I was worried about my lil’ guy, but I didn’t need to be: she was able to get him back on track and provided lots of updates along the way. I effusively recommend her as a pet caregiver!
When our elderly pug was in her twilight years, my wife and I hired Alice to care for her more than once, and we were blown away by the tenderness and attentiveness she showed to our grumpy little dumpling. She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was happy and comfortable, and she was extremely on top of the extensive battery of supplements and medications a senior pug requires. Alice has been warm, courteous, and communicative in all of our interactions. She creates a safe and cozy space for pets. I'm so grateful we had such capable hands in which to leave our sweet fuzzy clown.
Alice is an exceptionally trustworthy and dependable animal care giver. She has been dog sitting for me for nearly a decade. My dog loves her & I feel relaxed and able to enjoy my travels while she’s in Alice’s care.

Schedule
I work from home full time, so I'm available to take dogs for multiple daily outdoor adventures-- from neighborhood walks to trips to the Eno River. I usually go to the gym in the morning, and spend the day at home working. I'll sometimes leave the house for a few hours in the evening.
