She did great- very trustworthy and we really appreciate her help! Even helped bring in packages etc, which was a huge lifesaver!

Alicia could not have done a better job of caring for my energetic 3YO rescue pup and my lazy-body 12YO medium size dog. she following the medication and food allergy feeding instructions exactly, gave both dogs plenty of love and attention & most importantly was able to navigate the fact that i forgot to leave the leads/harness/collars and still make sure they could go outside for a walk. Alicia did all this and it was only the first time she worked with my dogs as i was traveling out of town!
