I currently work 2 jobs, both of which are Thursday-Sunday. At one of my jobs I work overnight, so there is a possibility I will have to leave to work in the middle of the night and will be back by morning. Along with my 2 jobs, I am also a college student, with that being said I have to attend in-person classes during the week. I am able to care for your loved ones before, between, and after work, and make it a priority to give your animals quality care & all the love I can. If you have any questions about my schedule please feel free to reach out!

Safety, trust & environment

I keep a close watch on my own pets as well as the pets I look after. I would prefer a list/note of what type of pet care you expect, for instance writing a note with your animal's daily schedule and when/what to feed them! If your babies have any allergies or if there's anything specific you'd like me to know about your pet please also disclose that information. At the end of each stay/visit, I make it a point to include a brief summary of how your pet(s) behave, just to bring you up to speed! I like to send lots of photos and videos of your pet, so keep your phone close to receive ALL the love from back home <3

Information Alicia D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animals have any special accommodations. If you have a strict schedule for your animal please disclose that information as well so I can assure you that I give your loved ones quality care! If your pets are reactive to people and/or other animals please also make sure to disclose that information, my priority is to make sure all animals are comfortable and feel safe when I'm taking care of them!!

A typical day

On a typical day, I would take your dog out in the morning after feeding & let them get some much-needed vitamin D! Then I would make sure to give your babies all the love & snuggles to make them feel safe & comfortable. Between/after classes I will come back to greet your dog, give them some time to run around & play with a toy. Before I head out I always make sure to give your animals enough time to use the restroom, whether that's being let out in a backyard, or taking a long walk around the neighborhood! The day will end with lots of love & snuggles (again) after I finish other necessary tasks for your pets.

Pets

Hi there! I'm responsive & reliant!

Pet care experience

Growing up I've always had a love for all types of pets, I've had a few family pets that I would take care of as well! What sets me apart from other sitters is that I strive to create a bond with your pets! Usually, I would like to set up an appointment ahead of time to meet your loved ones and we can create a bond, I would like to take this time to see if they're comfortable with me based on body language & behaviors! I have experience working with all kinds of pets, and I've worked at boarding facilities. I have experience working with reactive animals and I currently have a reactive dog!! Any extra knowledge I have is because I have a great sister who is a veterinary technician!

Alicia has been great with our two pups. She's very reliable, and communicative. She sends lots of snuggles and pictures/videos so we can keep track of them while we're gone. We've used her twice and will definitely keep using her.

We found Alicia to be a very responsible person who truly enjoys caring for animals. She is loves playing with your pet and communicating daily activities. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting / house sitting. She does a great job with our rowdy girl. She exceeded all expectations while respecting our home while we we away. 10/10 will be booking again.

Alicia watched my dog for me on multiple occasions and she was absolutely amazing!! She truly tested my dog as one of her own and i can’t be anymore appreciative. She would send me update photos, updated me on his behavior and how he is doing, and made sure he was going potty on time. I could tell my doggy really enjoyed her presence, I highly recommend booking with her!!
