Dog lover with a sweet lab mix
Pet care experience
I started watching dogs through Rover while completing a graduate program, and now that I'm back at work, Mitch, my calm and friendly lab/shar-pei mix, would love some dog company from time to time! We often go for walks on Kingman Island, a great nature preserve in the middle of the Anacostia River. I know it can be stressful leaving your pet while you're away, but I promise to treat yours like my own. I'm comfortable administering medicine and working with anxious pets (Mitch is a rescue, and he's made a lot of progress!). I've had a great experience using Rover when I've left town, and I know I can provide the same reliable service and peace of mind that I have received from my own dog sitter.
Reviews
Alicia was super easy to coordinate with and took our pup along with her and her dog on fun adventures to local parks and green spaces! Would recommend and would definitely have our dog stay with her again!
Olive had a great time, and we really appreciated the daily photos and updates.
Alicia was awesome!!! She was super-responsive and kept us up to date on how our pup was doing. Would definitely trust her to look after him again.
We felt great leaving our dog with Alicia. She sent frequent photos during the stay and our dog enjoyed playing with Mitch. She even picked her up at the beginning of the stay, which was a huge help. We’ll definitely go to Alicia for our next dog-free trip.

I have a small front yard and live near several parks, so your dog will have a lot of outdoor time. I'm happy to crate your dog when I'm gone or let him or her roam like mine does.

Information Alicia P. would like to know about your pet
No special information! I love all dogs and am pretty laid back and accommodating. Just need to make sure yours is friendly enough to hang out with mine, though he is very tolerant.
A typical day
Walks around Kingman Island or the neighborhood parks. If your dog is comfortable off-leash (within a fenced area), we also like walks at Congressional Cemetery!

I work from home every day except for Monday and Wednesday (but have someone who can let the dogs out those days). I already care for one dog, so it's not hard to add another!
