Pet care experience

Hey there, Are you looking for someone who is responsible and reliable, that you can trust to keep your babies safe and happy while your away? I'm Leash and as of 2026, I have been able to provide 11 years of Rover services to many wonderful families and their amazing pets. I have too, a 15 yr old senior Chihuahua that I've had his whole life since 10 weeks old. He is spoiled rotten to this day and don't you dare let him tell you any different! And he completely knows it. He does love other dogs and cats as well and makes friends quite easily but also just prefers to be left alone to sleep 22 hrs/ day. I have volunteered and worked in animal welfare -rescue for the last 20 years and carry a lot of experience with me that I'm able to utilize in various ways, at different times. I am very hands on and take pride in the meaningful, fulfilling work I do and love to stay busy making a difference and changing lives. I have a lot of knowledge and background working with resource guarding, grooming, nail trims, senior care, separation of stress and anxiety, special diet- feeding restrictions, medications, diabetic care, "stranger danger", safety precautions/measures, new dog to dog introductions and small to large breed care. This has been a great platform to go new places, meet new faces and expand my level of care and commitment for Gods 4 legged- loyal little creatures. I genuinely enjoy meeting new parents, learning about their pets (bc each one is different) and love giving my time and energy thru this. It is a true privilege of great opportunity to get to know some of these amazing pet friendly families out there. I love to send pictures and daily updates to put your mind at ease. I understand it's not easy entrusting someone new with such an important part of your heart. The safety, comfortability, general welfare and happiness of your beloved pets are my top priorities. To me, it has to be personal. Please reach out for a meet and greet, to see if I am the right fit for you. Talk soon and take care.

Alicia is the absolute best! I’m so thankful to have found her! She took such good care of our dog, Remus while we were on vacation. I think he misses her and that is a great feeling😊

This was our first time working with Alicia, but she came highly recommended, and we can see why! She's a gold-star level communicator, super-responsive, and took care of our cat, even with our driveway covered in a couple of feet of snow!!! We're so grateful for Alicia's commitment to pet care.

Wonderfully kind hearted. Took great care of my dog during a wedding in town last minute. No complaints. I would recommend Alicia to anyone seeking attentive pet care!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
