Pet care experience

Human in need of a walk!

Hello dog and cat owners! I am a fellow animal lover looking to spend more time doing what makes me happy. I have vast experience caring for many different dog breeds and haven’t met one that I don’t adore. I love the outdoors and exploring the city, and would enjoy bringing your dog along with me! Whether to the dog park or a long walk by the beach, I can guarantee your pooch will have fun and get a good amount of exercise. If they respond better to a firm tone or lots of positive reinforcement I can easily accommodate to ensure your dog is getting the best care they deserve. I think we could all use some more fresh air and a little attention right now so this seems like the perfect arrangement to me. Caring for animals is somewhat of a dream job for me so please don’t hesitate to reach out! Please note: If you would like me to do a home stay during the week I would please ask you to provide your wifi. I work remotely full-time Monday-Friday.

Alicia stayed with my special needs dog for 10 days this time and I cannot thank her enough. She made sure his routine was exactly as he needed and kept me updated the entire time. She always goes above and beyond and makes sure that my pup is loved and didn’t feel alone. I felt so relieved that she was there and cannot be happier! She treats your home with so much respect. I am so thsnksful!!

Alicia was absolutely fantastic!! It was my first time ever leaving my special needs dog and I was extremely nervous and anxious. Alicia constantly sent me updates and kept my mind at ease. She was extremely responsible and left my house exactly as I left it. She is clean and reliable and I am so relieved! Thank you for treating my special fur baby with such patience and care!!!

Alicia stayed in our home with our young duck toller. She took wonderful care of our dog and left the house just as she found it. Great communication and some extra help on a few things!

I left my 16 year old dog with Alicia in my home for 8 days. I haven’t left him with anyone but family in many years, so I was quite nervous! Alicia was so kind with him when they met, I knew he would be in good hands. I loved that she worked from home, so I knew my old man would have company most of the day. I came home to a very well cared for dog and home. I so appreciated Alicia and her willingness to care for my very loved, somewhat high maintenance, pampered old dog! Thanks again Alicia for giving me the peace of mind to thoroughly enjoy my vacation!!

Alicia took the best care of our boys when we went away for a short weekend trip to visit family. She stayed with them at our house since one of our three cats was recently very sick. Alicia was amazing even though caring for them has definitely become more high maintenance in the last two months. She sent us updates, photos of them, gave our sick kitty all his meds, and didn't hesitate to reach out when something went wrong. For example, one of the cats got into the trash - Alicia reached out to us, and we were able to formulate a plan to monitor him in case he got sick as a result of his trash snaccident. We are so, so happy to have entrusted her to take care of our cats. We came home to 3 happy kitties, a clean house (and litter boxes!), and the knowledge that we have found someone amazing to take care of our boys in the future :)
