I’m the oldest of 4 dogs & 8 kids!

Pet care experience

Growing up I had 4 dogs. Since I was the oldest of 8 kids in my household, I retained a lot of the responsibilities of caring for Max, Coco, Chevy, and Dante. Some of my fondest memories are giving my dogs baths in the tub. Since 2 of them were bigger than me and terrified of water, I often got in the tub with them and held them while I soaked them up. I love animals and I’m not afraid to get dirty! Im a Stanford Graduate (undergrad engineering) so I believe that speaks to my responsibility and intelligence. I’m also a goofball and very active! I go to the gym almost every day, so if you need someone to run with your dog, I’m your girl. Although count me out after 9 miles on a weekday. 😉

Alicia was awesome with our 9-week old puppy. I could see that our puppy really liked her and had a lot of playtime. She also sent us awesome pictures and videos of the visit. Would highly recommend Alicia!

Alicia is loving, caring, patient, and very responsible when it comes to caring for animals. As someone who grew up in a home with dogs, she is a highly experienced caregiver. I do not doubt that Alicia will treat the dogs under her watch as one of her own and will protect and nurture them. Endowed with boundless energy, she will make sure those dogs receive all of the cuddles, walks, and play-activities they could ever want. Alicia will be a great addition to Rover's dog-sitters!

Alicia is a great dog walker or pet sitter for any kind of dog.  As her roommate, I’ve seen her care for energetic puppies to calm, older dogs. For the energetic dogs, she is able to tire them out through fun and adventure. She’ll usually go on a run to a park, play fetch, then spend time relaxing with them. For the calmer dogs she tends to opt for long slow walks and will even sit in the grass while reading a book and petting them for a while. If I had a dog I would happily let her walk/sit for mine.

Alicia has experience with caring for large and small dogs. She is energetic and very loving. Typically, when she cares for my large dog- Dante who is a Rottweiler, Labrador mix- she will go on a light jog to a park, play fetch, and walk back home. This is usually between 45mins-75mins. She will occasionally take Dante to the beach when the weather and schedule permits. Alicia has watched Dante for 3 days at a time and has responsibly administered medicine as well. I am never worried when she cares for him. A great caretaker for your dog!

I have a big backyard with a fence, grass, and gates on each side of the house! My roommates LOVE dogs so if I brought yours home they’d be sure to get extra love. There’s a great park right by my house (Eleanor Pardee) and the neighborhood I live in is very quiet and safe.

I work full-time at a tech company (NVIDIA) but I have a flexible schedule and can often work from home. It’s a dog-friendly work environment too so I have the option to bring your big/lil guy/lady to work with me. If I get enough heads up I’m happy to do both
