Doula, nanny, loving pet sitter!
Pet care experience
I've been a dog owner for most of my life and currently have 2 craigslist pups that are 10! I love dogs of all sizes, shapes and breeds and look forward to meeting your pets as well. I work and am out of my home Monday to Friday from 7:00-5:30/6pm. I'm free outside of that schedule for drop in pet visits. I cannot be a 24/7 pet caregiver as I do have a full time position, but I am open to house sitting and trying to do right by my clients regardless of whether caring for children or furred friends. I want you to have a good experience and to build long lasting relationships with my clients. I like to get dogs outside and active, getting their potty needs in before we head inside for our meal or a treat for good behavior. Plenty of fresh water, making sure that they have it and leaving them on a good note either crated if they're trained or hopefully settled and ready for a nap!
Reviews
Alicia is very professional and a great sitter for my two special needs dogs. She sent me pictures of my girls each day they were with her, which helped ease my stress of having to leave them. She treated my girls as if they were her own. I highly recommend her.
Alicia is an excellent cat sitter! It is really nice to travel knowing that my cats are so well cared for. She is responsible and communicates very well - always provides photos and a detailed update of how my furballs are doing. Highly recommended.
Alicia is a loving and caring pet owner. Alicia treats her animals like the are humans. Alicia is kind and tears my chihuahua better than anyone I know!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a snuggly person and enjoy giving scritches and belly rubs to any dog that wants them! I'm happy to hang out for a bit and watch a show or play with some toys to give your dog the attention they want in your absence!
Information Alicia B. would like to know about your pet
Any allergies or special diet requirements/restrictions, whether they are friendly to other dogs (on or off-leash!), other people, etc. Are they prone to trying to run after wildlife. Is the yard a safe fenced area for us to spend time. Are they command-trained to return when called, or will I need to retrieve them myself, etc.
A typical day
A typical day in the life of a pooch with me is getting up, breakfast and a potty break outside followed by some love and affection. Some play-time with toys or other dogs if applicable. A bit of hanging out in the early morning hours followed by a brisk walk a few hours later. I love trail walking with dogs so if you have some nearby your place, all the better!
