Friendly dogs- Large Fenced in yard

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Alicia, I’m 30 I live in Festus with my husband, 13 year old daughter and 5 year old son. We have a nice sized fenced in yard. I have been dog sitting and house sitting since I was a teenager. I have pet sat in my own home, and in others. I started out dog/house sitting for family members when they would go out of town or if they would need me to drop in and check on their pets. I typically dog sit for 1 or 2 dogs at a time, but I have had up to 5 in my house at one time We are used to dogs of all sizes, such a german shepherd, a bull dog, a pit bull and a pomeranian. I am most experienced with dogs and cats, but I do have experience with small animals like guinea pigs and rabbits (most of which I've owned myself). I've even had experience with snakes and other reptiles. I do have two dogs of my own, one is a 6year old Black lab/collie mix, a German Shepard, and a Cavalier King Charles. They are very friendly and used to meeting new dogs. If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Alicia is very flexible and professional with us. Alicia communicates with us and we've had all great experiences with her. She is great with the cats. They can be pretty timid, but she is winning them over. I'm overjoyed that we found her on Rover. She's wonderful!

Alicia is so sweet with the cats. She takes special care with our senior kitty. I love that she stays in communication with us while we're gone and has been really flexible. I know our cats are already looking forward to seeing her again.

Alicia was very good with the cats while we were away. I would love to have her back again.

Alicia is really wonderful to work with. She is a great communicator and was alway on time. I loved that she sent me photos and a detailed report about my pup with each walk. I definitely will use her again. Highly recommend!

Information Alicia G. would like to know about your pet

No breed restrictions as long as they’re social and friendly. Tell me what your dog likes, what commands they may know. Do they get along with other dogs, cats, children? Do they like walks or prefer playing in the yard? Do they like car rides? Any specific diet restrictions are fine, just make sure to let me know. Your dogs must be up to date with their vet visits. I am happy to accept puppies and/or other dogs who aren't quite potty trained.. just please let me know what to expect.

A typical day

Stimulation is good for dogs both physically and mentally, so walks and playing activities like fetch are a normal part of our day. They will really enjoy themselves while at my home.
