Reliable. Thoughtful. Happy.

Pet care experience

I am a professional dog groomer that loves caring for animals! I do work full time and am I’m the process of launching a full service mobile grooming business, so my availability may be limited, but if I have the time, you can be sure I am the one you can count on to help out! Being a resource to others brings huge sense of purpose to my life, so I’ve found myself helping people with their home cleaning, professional organizing, and pet care needs! My goal is to be someone you trust to make your life a little easier, so just let me know what I can do for you! A little more about my animal care experience... In the Winter of 2018, I lived in a home with one of my good friends who loved helping with dog boarding. Together, we are able to provide almost 24/7 care for your furry friends, which may include daily walks, playtime on a large fenced in deck, or inside playtime on those cold winter days! During my time in college, I volunteered for over a year and a half at the Friends of New Haven Animal Shelter. This experience and my previous experiences using Rover is why I understand and am committed to your pet's need for attention and love. My goal is to give your furry friend the same amount of love, care, and support as I have always given my own pets. I am dependable, responsible, and a good communicator. You can feel confident in me as your dog walker/pet sitter. :)

I highly recommend Alicia She recently took care of our 5 year old Labrador. Alicia stayed at our house and took Tank for walks, hikes and alot of beach time ( which he loves). She also sent daily photo's of Tank on his excursion's. I mentioned Alicia's name to Tank this morning, he went looking all over the yard for her. We will definitely being using Alicia to pet sit in the future.

Alicia was great! Jax had two great days with her and was wiped out by the end of the day!

We were very happy with how well Chloe and Austin adjusted so quickly being away fromus, and staying with Alicia. She was very good with them.

Alicia was so awesome! There’s not a doubt in my mind that I left my boxer Bentley in good hands. She sent pictures of them throughout the day, from hiking to snoozing on his bed. I would highly recommend her!
