Reviews
Alicia did an excellent job with Sophie. She was consistent with communication and photos. I felt at ease while hours away from home. More importantly, Sophie was very comfortable with her. She continued with her daily routines. I will definitely book again.
Alicia, is a great person. We have had us to sit with our dogs before. When she makes a visit the first time to meet with you, she has all the information that she needs on the dogs. My dogs love her and she spoils them rotten. I hope she continues to dog sitting for a long time.
Excellent sitter! Will be hiring again. She is organized, attentive to detail, and attuned to my dogs' needs. She did an excellent job caring for my senior dogs--highly recommend her! Thank you, Alicia!!!
Alicia was wondering. Came to visit prior to watching our fur baby Emerson and this past weekend was the first time we have ever left him. He will be 5 July 13th. She frequently sent pictures to show how comfortable he was and keep us updated on their day! Emerson appeared to be extremely comfortable and happy! He didn’t even bark “YELL” at us when we got home like he does when we have to go to run errands. We have another vacation planed in July for a whole week and we feel extremely comfortable her house sitting again. Kudos to Alisha!

When caring for your pets in your home I will care for them as you do. Any rules you have I will follow. I will follow the schedule and amount for meals. I will play with them and pet them as they let me. Since it’s important to know when pets need space I’ll pay attention to their behavior so I know when to stop. I am fine with the dog sleeping in bed with me or cuddling with me on the couch.
Information Alicia R. would like to know about your pet
It’s very important to know any behavioral and health issues beforehand so I can plan accordingly. It’s important to know about anything that might trigger your dog to act out such as fireworks, garbage trucks, blow dryers, or the vacuum cleaner. What is their favorite treat and toy? Are you doing any training currently that I need to know about? I don’t have a preference for dog breeds. Just as long as they are friendly I am open to working with them.
A typical day
It’s important to not just play with a dog but to keep them active mentally. I can play games with your dog, and set up ways to wear him or her out mentally through puzzles, nose work, etc. Of course, some dogs will prefer to lie down on the couch or dog bed most of the day and that is perfectly fine too. I love to take pictures and take a lot during most of my sits.

Availability
I don't have a set schedule. I do prefer afternoons and evenings, however. I can fit my life around your pet’s schedule. *If your pet requires constant care for overnights. The kind of care that means I can only leave for 2 to 3 hours. For that kind of extensive care i will add a $30 fee per day.*
