Adventure seeker who loves animals!

Pet care experience

My name is Alicia, I am 37 years old and I have been a military member for almost 13 years. Due to deployments, and travel I have cared for many peoples homes and pets. I have hosted pets at my own home and have enjoyed it immensely. I like taking animals on adventures with me and I like to travel to other places for new experiences!!! I do have a full time job but have specific free time available. I have cared for special needs animals and am willing to learn their certain needs to make sure owners and pets are comfortable. My military training has taught me to be disciplined and trustworthy, reliable and respectful. Your home and pets will be in capable hands!

Alicia was AMAZING!! She watched our four dogs (one of which has anxiety and is slightly psychotic) , five chickens and three cats! Our animals absolutely loved her from the moment they met her. I got lots of updates and photos of my animals while we were out of town, and even my anxious/psychotic boy was cuddling with her. Alicia and her husband Kevin (whom we also met prior to them watching our animals) were both fantastic. You can tell that they both love animals! She went above and beyond! She even cleaned dog poop up from our yard, which we did not expect at all. We returned home to happy animals and a spotless house! I cannot recommend Alicia enough! Would absolutely love for her to watch our animals again. Alicia and Kevin we appreciate you guys and loved having you watch our animals!

Alicia was so great with our pups from the start! She was so playful and they loved her instantly. She’s my number one pick every time we need a sitter!

I have known Alicia for over 4 years and can say that she is not only a great friend to me, but she is a wonderful "aunt" to my dog, Phoebe. Phoebe is a Lab and German Short Haired Pointer mix with endless amounts of chaotic energy and slobbery love. Due to her boundless energy, Phoebe is often considered "too much" for many individuals, but Alicia cares for Phoebe with love, patience, and the perfect amount of assertiveness when needed. Phoebe is more than "just a dog" to me, and it is important to me to have people that watch her treat her as family. I see Alicia treat Phoebe as her own family and take joy in watching her. My dog also has very specific medical needs as she has a condition called EPI. Alicia has always been responsible with Phoebe's medicine and respectful of the limitations in her diet. Some of the qualities I admire most about Alicia is her ability to take initiative, she is never afraid to ask questions or seek clarification, and she is extremely detail oriented. Not only do I recommend Alicia as a trusted friend, but I also recommend her as someone who my dog feels safe with and absolutely adores.

I love all breeds and temperaments. Does the dog need any special training, medications, or grooming services. If your animal is special needs, please provide details on how to properly administer care for your animal.
