Alicia has been our dog sitter for a few years. She is very dependable, caring and loves animals. Alicia takes vey good care of our 5 year old dachshunds, Rocky and Abby. Alicia is very safety orientated, always keeping our dogs safety first and foremost. Alicia communicates very well with us on how the dogs did during her time with them. She even sends us little videos or pictures of what the dogs are doing while Alicia is caring for them. I would highly recommend Alicia! She is a wonderful dog sitter and a lovely lady.

Ali (Alicia) has the biggest heart for animals! She has watches my dog Griffey on multiple occasions. Each time I drop him off with her, I know he will be cared for and loved. I highly recommend Ali if you are looking for someone to help care for your dog with love and attention!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a yard that is unfenced, so all potty breaks would be supervised and on leash. I have two guinea pigs, Snickers and Fudgesicle, who will remain in their cage with the door closed at all times. I can provide your pet with walks and exercise if needed, but most importantly, I will love them like they are my own!

A typical day

Based on your dog’s needs, I will provide your pet with what they need to feel their best while you are away. From exercise to snuggling on the couch, providing a safe and comfortable environment is my priority.
