Pet care experience

Your Pet’s Home Away from Home

I’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old, growing up on a farm surrounded by a wide variety of species. With over 30 years of hands-on experience, I’m comfortable caring for everything from dogs and cats to reptiles, small animals, and other unique pets. As a pet owner myself with two beloved cats, I understand that our animals are family. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care and treating every pet as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. After all, our companions truly make life better.

Alicia has a long history of caring for pets. Not just pets but animals in general. Growing up, she along with her mother, had a small farm and also bred different dog breeds. Cared for them, raised them and attended their every need. She also has experience rehabilitating strays back to good health and finding them good loving homes. She has her own pets aswell and they are all well kept and well mannered. Overall, she is an animal lover and always has been. She’s a person of integrity and has high standards. She is a veteran having served our country with the USMC. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pets like I trust Alicia.

Schedule

I own my own business, so I’m available mornings and I can come and go when I need too. I understand how stressful it can be to juggle work or travel plans while trying to make sure your pets are well cared for. Whether you’re heading to work, going out of town, or planning a holiday getaway, I’m here to help give you peace of mind. I offer both in-home pet care and care in my home, depending on what works best for you and your pet.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I believe every pet deserves to feel secure, loved, and at home while their family is away. I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where every companion receives individualized care based on their routine, personality, and needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, enrichment, quiet relaxation, or plenty of cuddles, I tailor my care to what makes your pet happiest. I closely supervise pets at all times, follow all feeding and medication instructions carefully, and maintain open communication with pet parents through regular updates and photos. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your companion is being treated with the same love, patience, and respect I give my own pets.

Pets

A typical day

Unless you request otherwise, pets staying in my home are treated like family. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible while you’re away. Between walks, playtime, games of fetch, enrichment activities, and plenty of cuddles, they’ll have lots of love and attention throughout their stay. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I do allow pets on the couch and bed, as long as you’re comfortable with it. If you prefer your companion to stay off the furniture, I’m more than happy to follow your routine and house rules.
