First time using Rover? Use my referral link and save yourself $20 for your first stay! https://www.rover.com/sit/alicic52719 I'm Alicia, a passionate dog lover with a deep understanding of canine behavior. I have been working with dogs for 15 years and have experience in dog walking, house sitting and home boarding. I understand the importance of providing a loving and safe environment for your furry family members. Puppy Care: Puppies require special attention and care, and I understand the unique needs of our little furry friends. From potty training to socialization, I provide a nurturing environment that fosters growth and development. Senior Dog Care: I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs who may have specific health requirements or just need a bit more TLC. Whether it's administering medications, adjusting the pace of walks, or simply providing a comforting presence, I tailor my care to meet the individual needs of senior dogs. Comfort and Companionship: Regardless of age, every dog in my care receives the love, attention, and companionship they deserve. My goal is to create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for your pet, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Services: Dog Walking: I offer personalized and energetic dog walks tailored to your dog's needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll or an active jog, I ensure your pup gets the exercise and mental stimulation they crave. Home Boarding: For pet parents who prefer their dogs to stay in a home environment rather than a traditional kennel, I provide a cozy and comfortable space. Your dog will enjoy a home away from home with lots of attention, playtime, and even the option to work from home with me. I'm fortunate to have the option to work from home, which allows me to spend quality time with your pets throughout the day. Your furry friend won't be alone for extended periods, and I can provide regular updates and photos to keep you connected.

Alicia was great! She followed all of our instructions, communicated well and left us with a happy cat when we came home. I would not hesitate to book with her again!

Awesome experience with Alicia. She was very attentive and knew how to handle nervous cat! It was our first time using house visit service for our cat and we felt very comfortable with Alicia. Will definitely recommend her service!

My dog is very sensitive, clingy, and usually has a hard time being away from her family, so we were quite nervous about leaving her with someone else. Alicia is patient, kind, and understanding, and made sure she felt safe and comfortable throughout her stay. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was well cared for. She came home happy, relaxed, and well looked after. If you have a dog with separation anxiety or a sensitive personality, I highly recommend them. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our girl—we’ll definitely be back!

Wonderful pet sitter! It was so nice to know our cat was getting her medicine when we were on vacation. She sent a picture of our cat each visit. Highly recommend.
