Hello! My name is Alicia, and I am the most trustworthy and responsible person you'll ever meet. I worked many years handling sensitive information, and at the same time building trust and rapport with my clients. I exited the rat race a year ago and opened a small business in Conroe with my husband. I enjoy being my own boss and setting my own hours. Which is what drew me to becoming a dog sitter! I love animals, and helping people, so dog sitting seemed like the perfect combination! I absolutely love petting animals, I think it has a calming effect. My dog always calms us down after a hard day. They have that unconditional love and excitement when you walk in the door that nothing else can match! We had to put my first dog down when I was 15 years old, and it took me a long time to get over it. I had a cat for another 15 years, but it just wasn't the same kind of love you get from a dog. My husband brought me home puppy Hurley a few years ago when he was only a few weeks old, and I've been in love ever since. He's my baby. I get all gushy when I start talking about him. He is a constant source of love and amusement. When I come to your home I will play, love and pet her/him, and walk your dog if you want me to. Feedings and any pills your dog might need are included. If any messes are made in the house, I will clean it up. If there are any other special needs, we can talk about them. I will take great care of your dog, as if he/she were my own. I don't have any formal background or training, but I don't think you need it to show love and compassion to an animal. I look forward to meeting your dog! You won't be disappointed!
