Fun, Loving, Attentive, Responsible

Pet care experience

I give pet parents peace of mind when they are away from their fur babies. Growing up, my neighbors frequently trusted me to feed and play with their animals when they would go for vacation in the summer. As an adult, I've been taking care of others' cats and dogs for the past year. My neighbors have relied on my to feed, walk and play with their pets while they go away. I love sending them pictures during my stay and getting to know their furry friends.

Alicia was a fantastic pup & house sitter. My two girls are very high energy and she had no problem with them and even enjoyed their little quirks. Took beautiful care of my home. I will absolutely be using Alicia again for future stays and would recommend her to friends and family!

Alicia is legit amazing. She communicates really well, gets the best pictures, and really treated my pets as if they were her own. I highly highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

What's most important to me is routine. I like to get a feel for the animals routine before I care for them so I can try to incorporate that schedule into my routine as best as possible. I try to make sure they eat, exercise and/or play at the same time every day. I also love to care for small animals or pocket animals such as guinea pigs, mice, rats, bunnies, hamsters, chinchillas, hedgehogs, ferrets etc. Refer to my website for more information.

Information Alicia S. would like to know about your pet

Many pets will know they can push a new caregiver to do things their normal owner wouldn't, but I do my best not to let this happen and maintain similar habits. I'm always sure to ask about sharing human food with the animals, if there are areas of the house that are off limits to the animals, etc.

A typical day

I love giving animals attention. My cats hate me for it :P I like getting down on the floor and giving good belly rubs. I take a few minutes here and there to play a little and have a longer scheduled play time as well. I always talk and interact with pets throughout the day, giving plenty of love and attention.

I am currently working from home and have plenty of flexibility to spend time with your fur babies. For overnight stays, I try to return to my home twice a day (morning and evening) for about 2-3 hours to take care of personal matters.
