Pet care experience

About Me 🐾 My love for animals started with childhood dreams of being a vet and naturally grew into a lifelong passion. After years of being the "go-to" sitter for everyone I knew, pet care became second nature to me. My background as an Early Childhood Educator sharpened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to tune in to what someone needs—qualities I now bring to every dog and pet I care for. At the end of the day, I just love being around animals! My goal is to be your pet’s best friend and provide a true home away from home, treating them with the same kindness and devotion I give my own. 💛 Fun Fact 🩷 Walking dogs is one of my absolute favorite things to do!

Alicia took excellent care of my 18 year old dog! He requires some special care due to his poor eyesight and other age related issues, and Alicia was more than happy to accommodate all of his needs. She also sent updates and pictures during his stay there. I would highly recommend!

Alicia boarded our dog Oliver last minute for us and she was so accommodating and easy to work with. She provided great feedback during his stay and asked really good questions before we dropped him off. We wont hesitate to book with Alicia again in the future!
