Dog Loving Family Home
I've been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up with German Shepherds, so I am very comfortable with large dogs. My husband and I have always done dog walking for family and cared for multiple dogs during the week while friends were out of town. When we adopted our pup, we were told she would be about 35-40 lbs, but she never grew past 16 lbs! So we are currently a small dog family, with lots of room for our bigger friends! While living in San Diego, I volunteered with Canine Companions and was a certified puppy sitter for them from 2016 until we moved up here in 2022. I am happy and excited to meet your fur baby, so please reach out to see if I can be of any assistance. I'm very flexible and can accommodate most situations!

Ratings and reviews
Sunny was treated like an extension of Alicia’s family and was so well-loved while we were away. It was so reassuring knowing he was in a loving home and it was like he had his own vacation while we were away. Great family and perfect yard for a dog - highly recommend!
Alicia was lovely to work with. She responded quickly to our need for a sitter and gave our pup a home away from home while we were away. I think he really felt part of their family during his stay. Thank you, Alicia!
Obi was so happy and relaxed after we pick him up! Alicia is excellent at communicating and keep me informed with photos and updates. My family highly recommend Alicia to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. 5 stars plus all 🐾 paws from Obi! Obi will definitely go back when we are in the area again.
Buddy, our golden retriever loved his stay at Alicia’s - he especially liked her daughter and told us all about her when we picked him up. Wonderful family - super clean and very safe from streets. Thanks for the great care!

Schedule
I currently work part-time in the evenings, so I have plenty of free time to play with and care for your fur baby! I am available to board 7 days a week. I am happy to walk, play, or just cuddle up with your pup. I do live with 3 young children, so your pup must enjoy small humans in order to board with us. I have one small dog, so please let me know if your pup needs to be separated from other dogs.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for taking your pup on walks or to the dog park and beach. I have a large fenced in and gated yard, but all dogs are welcome inside our home. Our pup is part of our family and of course sleeps in our bed, so please know the same treatment will be shown to your baby as well. Our dog likes to graze throughout the day, but I can abide by any special diet restrictions or timed feedings. Please let me know if treats are not allowed.
Pets
A typical day
I am happy to take your pup on daily walks. We love the beach, so if you're comfortable with them at dog beach, we can go to the beach or for park trips too! I have younger children who love to throw the ball or play tug of war with our pup, so your pup will have lots of play time if they are up for it!
