Personal Care For Happy Dogs!
Pet care experience
***I am a student, working on pre-requisites and my NAC. I am accepting new clients for services in the area, but I will not be able to commit to any long-term arrangements or dates of service after July 13th, as I will begin clinical hours and that schedule has not yet been determined. Thank you!*** I love animals! My pets are my family and over the 5 years that I worked in a high-volume dog daycare and boarding facility, my clients' dogs were as well. Every dog is different. Every dog is special. Through my professional experience, I also learned how special and unique a client's relationship is with their pet. The little details that you may or may not think about on a daily basis. I do my best to learn these details in order to better serve the client and keep their pet comfortable while in another's care. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments, basic canine first aid and body language, administration of medications, feeding, and walks as well as light grooming, if desired. I am available for sitting in the client's home only. My current class hours are 10-4 during the weekdays in Bellevue so I will not be able to stay with your pup all day M-F while sitting.

Didn’t have to worry about my dog when I had a last minute trip out of town. Alicia took care of my old Boxer girl.
Alicia was so easy to work with, flexible, timley, and reliable! She was able to be there for my pup short notice and took care of him just like i would till i got home. Will definitely be using her again. Best pet sitter i could have asked for! The updates were also really cute and helped me relax. I have lots of cute pictures to save :)
Best dog sitter ever! I’m so sad she moved. 100% recommendation!
Alicia can handle anything. When my little rascal pups chewed up the trim on my wall, she blocked it off so that they wouldn’t get to it again before I came home. When the pups chewed up their dog bed, Alicia put it back together and I could hardly even tell the dogs chewed it!! Truly amazing!! I trust Alicia with any animal, high maintneance, low maintenance, special needs, anything!!

Information Alicia M. would like to know about your pet
Before working with a client's pet, I would like to know if there is anything at all that may make their dog uncomfortable. Is there somewhere he or she doesn't like to be touched? Does your dog have any fears that I should be aware of? Are there any behaviors that you and your pet are currently practicing together so that I can work to reinforce this training and keep it consistent during our time together? Does your dog have any allergies or special needs? If the client has multiple pets, I would also appreciate any information regarding their interaction (ie. food aggression or guarding behaviors). All of these things help me to keep pets safe and happy while providing you with a service you can trust!
A typical day
What does your dog like to do most? Is there a park nearby your house that your dog likes to go? Is there a trail you like to take? Is there a certain toy or game your dog enjoys? I try to address each client differently, based upon the wishes of the owner and needs of the dog.
