Dogs Are Awesome!!
Pet care experience
I work from home Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. I go in to the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:30am to 4pm. I work 15 minutes from my house and come home at lunchtime to take my dog out for a potty break. My yard is fenced in and a secure place for my dog and yours to play, but I only allow them to go out for short supervised outings. My Jackson is my heart. He has his own personality and is very independent, but he always makes sure to wake up next to me in the morning :) I rarely go on vacations so holidays are usually not a problem. So if your pup is use to being home for extended periods of time call me. When I get home I will take them for a walk and/or let them out in the yard. My Jackson just turned 5 and does very well with other dogs. He is not neutered so if your dog is in heat, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to leave them with me. I have owned dogs all my life. I feel lost without a dog in my home. I can read the body language of a dog from the moment I meet them. Everyday I learn something new about my furry friend. Why I love dog sitting... Dogs have a way of making your day so rewarding. They greet you at the door just like it was the first time they've seen you all day. I could be gone for 30 minutes - but when i get home I get the warmest greeting that you can't help but just laugh or smile. If you listen to them - they do speak. My experience administering medication I do not have a problem administering oral medication.
Reviews
Leeroy’s stay with Alicia S. was awesome. She sent me regular photos of him having so much fun. It was clear he felt loved and very well cared for while he was with Alicia. I plan to definitely use her again and would highly recommend boarding your pet with her. She went above and beyond in caring for LeeRoy.
Alicia is a great sitter and is extremely accommodating!
Absolutely AMAZING!!! Never booking with anyone else!

Information Alicia S. would like to know about your pet
I prefer dogs that do not shed or shed very little. I would like to know if he has ever bitten anyone in the past. How does he/she let you know when they have to potty? How often does he/she eat? Do they get along with other dogs?
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks I would take your baby on walks around the neighborhood. My neighborhood consists of 495 homes and is very dog friendly. Your dog's sleeping arrangement If your pet has a bed he likes to sleep in and any toys, please bring them with him/her. They can sleep in my room. My puppy sleeps with me, but he does not shed. If your baby does not shed and would like to sleep in my bed that is fine with me. Otherwise they can sleep in their bed on the floor. Time I'll spend with your dog Pretty much all day. I only work outside of the home 1-2 days a week. Otherwise I work at home and I make sure the dogs stay within my sight at all times. I edit wedding videos, so I am not on the telephone, so they will not disturb my work. Time I'll spend with your dog all day Extra house-sitting services Sure...at an additional charge
