I'll give your dog lots of love!

Pet care experience

I am a reading consultant at an elementary school. Therefore I have my summer's off and I'm available full time from Jun-Aug. I have been a dog owner for the past 15 years. I currently have 2 large breed dogs that live at my home. Gabe is a yellow lab/dane mix and is a neutral dog who is 6 years old. He just passed his therapy dog test and we are the process of becoming a registered therapy dog team! My other dog is Murphy. He is a Pit/Dane mix and is 1.5 years old. He tends to be a little nervous so I have worked very closely with our vet who is a behaviorist to recognize dog body language that indicates nervousness, stress, or anxiety. Therefore, I have become in tune with the needs of our furry friends and will be able to calm or direct their attention elsewhere if they were to become anxious.

Alicia was amazing and very reliable. She was very accommodating when I needed a last minute sitter.

Alicia was great! She seemed to love dogs and took the time to keep me updated. Will definitely use her again if needed.

Information Alicia W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what are your dogs stressors and what strategies calm your dog. I would also like to know any specific commands or hand signals that you might use to gain their attention.

A typical day

There are several neighborhoods that are located close to my home. There is also a town park up the street that has great walking paths for dogs. I also have a little kiddie pool on hot days for the dogs to play in. Lastly, we have lots of bones and balls to play fetch with as well as a good game of tug-of war in our fenced in back yard!
