Safety, trust & environment

I’m a mom to two wonderful kiddos (ages 8 and 10). If you’re booking house sitting, they may occasionally need to accompany me, but I’ll always let you know beforehand. They’ve grown up around animals, are natural “cat whisperers,” and do an excellent job respecting boundaries with every pet they meet. I do my best to follow the routine you’ve set, since I know how important consistency is for your pets. Animals thrive on familiarity, and I’ll make sure things feel as normal and stress free as possible while you’re away.

Information Alicia M. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know your pet’s energy level, food preferences, allergies, habits, and personality quirks. And of course, knowing their favorite treats or snacks never hurts, it’s the quickest way for me to become their new best friend!

A typical day

I love going for long walks, playing at the park, or just enjoying a good brushing session. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide it. I can also help with the essentials like feeding, administering medication, or keeping their coat brushed. While I’m there, I’m glad to take care of little extras like watering plants or bringing in the mail.

Here to pet all the animals 🐾

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for animals my whole life, with cats being my specialty, though I never turn down a good pup walk! I love making sure your fur babies get plenty of chin scratches, belly rubs, and the comfort they deserve while you’re away. As a homeschooling mom, my schedule is flexible, which means I’m available for morning and afternoon walks, potty breaks, or drop-in visits. During visits, I can also help with little extras like watering plants, bringing in the mail, or taking out the trash cans. Whether your pet needs extra attention, playtime, medication, or just some quiet companionship, I’m here to help. I do my best to follow your routines and keep things consistent so your pets feel safe, loved, and stress free while you’re away.

Alicia was just an amazing care provider for our Puppies…can we give a 10 Star review. Alicia was communicative right from the beginning sending photos and not making us feel bad for the 5 thousand questions we had. Such a professional with just an amazing heart for providing love to our doggies . Words can not express how well cared for our dogs and home were. Thank you so much
