Friendly petsitter with flexibility

Pet care experience

I have owned/rescued many animals in the past. I have a true love for animals and a passion for helping others. In total I have owned 5 dogs ranging from small to large breeds as well as 1 cat. I've volunteered at our local shelter as a dog walker on multiple occasions and currently foster cats and kittens when they are in need. I am well experienced in administering medicine and recently just went through puppy training with our (now 2 year old) English Bulldog. It doesn't take much to fall inlove with being able to take care of animals and the rewards are a true gift.

Alicia was wonderful and caring. This was our first Rover experience and it was so good to know that our boy was being treated so well. I wasn't sure that he would want to leave her home and come home. Alicia and her family provided love and toys and play time for him.

Alicia and her family are huge animal lovers and are very trustworthy people. You can leave your animal with her knowing they are well taken care of and loved. She has a few of her own pups and also has volunteered to foster kittens with their mama. If you have any worry about finding a family to keep your fur baby, stop now and contact this family. Hands down, the best!

Zak is a senior Yorkie and everything went great. Alicia was very good about keeping me updated and sending pictures. Her kids were great with him and her dogs were friendly. I plan to use Alicia again.

I would recommend Alicia to anyone needing a dog sitter. She is such a animal lover! We have left our dogs in her care several times when we had to go away and never have to worry. Your fur babies would be well taken care of!

Safety, trust & environment

We currently own a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home with a fenced in backyard. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly and we almost always take our pups on an evening walk or run. We have 3 dogs (two 9 year old female rescues and a 2 year old English Bulldog). They get along well with other dogs and get all the love and attention possible from our two children (ages 4 and 10). We are also fostering a Mama Cat and her 5 Kittens (due to return for adoption on the 1st of August). With more than enough room here everyone has their own space and safe place to reside.
