Doggy-loving, Reliable Gal! <3

Pet care experience

As a dog mom, I understand the importance of long walks, treats (especially to reward good behavior), and playtime with my girls, so I’d naturally extend this care and attention to any dog that comes my way. Try me out and let me show your fury friend a fetchingly good time! We can take short or long walks around your neighborhood, Van Vorst Park, or Liberty State Park so your dog can stretch its legs. If you’re in a pinch, I can also bathe your dog during a drop in (contact me for details). In the last 15 years, I've trained a miniature poodle to fetch on command, a rottweiler to be protective of my younger siblings, and a chihuahua mix to sit & stay (with minimal whining!). I'm very patient and caring when it comes to pets because they're family. Our pets are here for just a fraction of our lives, so while you’re busy working hard to give them the life they deserve, let me to take them outside and give them a few extra belly rubs. :)

Alicia is so great with our pup. She’s very responsive and thoughtful, and we’re so happy to have someone that we and Brioche trust to check in on her while we’re away.

Alicia is wonderful and kind with my foster dog Raj. My pup is always more relaxed when I go to pick him up from daycare. She also lives near a dog park, so it works out perfectly. Definitely a recommended walker/day care provider in the area!

Alicia is amazing. I left my schnauzer with her for 2 1/2 weeks and she did great with him. He doesnt like everyone but he really took to her. I was worried leaving him for such a long time, but she has such a bright personality and maternal instincts with dogs. I will be using her again on the next family vacation.

I've known Alicia for a few years now as she's dog sat my mother's two pomskies. There's no doubt that she's one of the kindest, reliable dog-persons I've ever met. She loves being playful with them and always takes them on nice walks. Alicia is the only person I'd recommend to dog sit or care for lovable pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two small, sassy but sweet Havanese girls who are lovingly cared for in our home. They enjoy their lives very much like the movie ‘Secret Life of Pets’ and people watch and lounge all day when they’re not on a short or long walk (depending on their level of sassiness that day ;). At this time, I am not offering boarding.

Information Alicia T. would like to know about your pet

I would want to know of any specific commands, whether they’re potty-trained, on medication, the best way to communicate, of any aggression towards strangers or other dogs (while walking), has a favorite chew toy/snack, and any triggers (I actually met a dog who didn't like his belly rubbed!), etc. I have over 15 years of experience with different sizes and breeds, so I'd be happy to know what your doggy pal likes to do with you!

A typical day

I live near Liberty State Park where we take laps around the park, play fetch with friendly dogs, and even plan picnics (where the girls enjoy plenty of nap time in the grass!). Jersey City is very walkable, so rain or shine, snow or slush, if your dog is up for it, there are no limits!

I work remote and have the flexibility to walk your doggos and give them a little playtime, belly rubs, and food during drop ins. It’s the perfect escape for us both to get some fresh air throughout the day too!
