Pet care experience

Animal lover excited to help!

I’ve worked at a service dog nonprofit for the past decade and I’ve been a pet owner my whole life! Currently, we have a 4-year old Australian Cattle Dog mix and a 2-year old tabby cat. I know how stressful it can be leaving your fur babies when going on vacation/work but I’m happy to help! I will care for your pets with the same love and attention that I give my own. I have also completed training by the Fear Free Shelter Program.

Always perfect care for our animals. She watched the kitty Muffin this time and everything was great as always with Alicia. Thanks!!

Boarding • Apr 19, 2026

Alicia took wonderful care of my dog, Link, during his boarding stay of a little over four days. She is gentle, attentive, and clearly very in tune with the dogs she boards. I really appreciated that she only takes a small number of dogs at a time so they each get plenty of attention. She sent updates at least twice a day with great photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Link and her dog Zara seemed to become fast friends, and I loved seeing the pictures of them hanging out together. Alicia also made sure to play fetch with him (his favorite!) and kept me updated on his eating, medication, and sleep. The best sign of all—when I picked him up, he didn’t even seem eager to leave, which told me he truly felt comfortable and happy there. I would absolutely recommend Alicia to anyone looking for a caring, reliable boarding sitter. I’m very grateful for the excellent care she gave Link.

Alicia was wonderful and went above for my dogs. It was my first experience with someone doing potty breaks during the day and she made sure my anxiety was put to rest with updates and pictures.

Alicia is great! Easy communication and helped us out last minute for a trip. Took care of our beloved Muffin (cat) and even changed our hummingbirds water for us. Highly recommend.

This was a short stint (2 visits), but everything went really well. Even skittish Coco was visible for some pics! We would definitely use Alicia again.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced yard. Our two pets can provide company to your visiting fur baby. I am also available for daily walks. Ideally, your visiting pet will be crated at night while sleeping and if I ever have to leave the home briefly.

Pets

A typical day

I love to spend time with new animals, getting to know them and learning their quirks. Puzzles and games are fun ways to get to know pets as well as exploring new places to walk.

No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only

Let me know if your dog or cat has and specific needs (dietary preferences, allergies, behavioral modifications, etc). I’ll be happy to adjust our time together to best suite them.
