Pet care experience
I’ve been in love with cats since I was 4 years old when I experienced a neighborhood stray having kittens on my neighbors porch. At 9 I got my first cat who was loved and cared for by me until she passed when she was 17 years old. I’ve only had two years in my life since I was 9 without having cats of my own. I currently have a bonded pair that are my world! I have helped deliver, bottle fed, and foster kittens. I’m experienced in administering oral and topical medications, inhalers, and subcutaneous fluids. My love for and understanding of cats has been described by foster parents and vets as being a cat and kitten whisperer. Even the shyest of cats will come to me and let me pet them. I will love and care for your cat like one of my own!
Reviews
Alicia did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was out of town! She provided quick communication, sent detailed updates with pictures, followed instructions and was thoroughly prepped, and she went above and beyond to make sure he was happy while I was away. You can tell she really loves cats and I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch my cat again if I need to leave again!
Alicia did a great job taking care of our cats and sending daily updates that were detailed and included lots of photos! Cats were in good spirits when we arrived home.
Alicia is wonderful! She is so kind and great with our kitties. We would use her again.
Alicia took care of my cat Fury, she was excellent with punctuality, communication and care for my precious animal. Alicia went above and beyond to comfort and feed my cat, refreshing his water too. I can only recommend her services. Thank you again and see you soon.

Safety, trust & environment
Having had an escape artist cat I am hyper vigilant about doors so rest assured I will be on top of ensuring doors are secured when I visit. I know how to safely purrito cats for medication administration.
Information Alicia R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know ahead of time if your kitty is an escape artist or easily overstimulated. I want to make sure that I am able to give each kitty the special attention they need.
A typical day
I’m a big advocate of playtime with kitties, especially wand toy. I find that playtime is the way into a kitty’s heart and even the shy ones usually warm up when playtime is a regular part of the visit.
