Pet care experience

The vanlife cat lady!

I have had cats since I was like a child. I love all animals but am allergic to dogs so cats are my passion. I have always taken care of my own cats as well as any strays that wandered into my yard that then eventually became my own as well. I have also built winter sheds for stray cats in my neighborhood to protect them from the elements. I call myself the cat whisperer and also have a story about saving a cat from a drain gutter in Greece!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very familiar with different cat demeanors and can adjust to what your cat needs in its environment. If your cat is shy and you just need me to stop by and feed/clean litter I got you. If your cat is more attached and needs attention I can give it all! I am able to bring in mail, water plants, and make sure your home is safe and tidy for your return so you can have a stress free leave. I also have experience giving cats medication.

Alicia has been amazing with my two senior cats. She's great with giving medicine to one of them who has both a heart disease and cancer.

Alicia took fantastic care of our cats while we were gone. She took the time to play with them, brush them, and take lots of cute pictures for us! This was our second time booking her, and we will definitely be booking her more in the future. Simply the best!

Alicia is the best pet sitter in all of Knoxville. She treats my cats like they’re her own, she’s quick to respond if I need her, she leaves detailed Rover cards, and I never have any concerns with her. I will use her services 100% of the time that she is available.

Alicia always does a great job for my cat, Archie, and he is obviously very happy in the photos she sends. Even watered my outdoor plants when I panicked about the extreme heat wave!

Schedule

I work remote and travel as a vanlife nomad. So I am able to be wherever whenever pretty much! My work is very relaxed so I am able to have full focus on your pet! I even have my own Wi-Fi. If you need me to house and cat sit I’m there or even just to stop by and play with your feline friend and take care of feedings! I am a very clean and tidy person and will take good care of your home not just your pets. I’m a plant lady too so if you have those they will be well looked after as well!

Cats
Alicia can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Let me know your cats typical demeanor so I know how to adjust! Is your cat shy at first and then likes attention or does your cat prefer to be left to themselves? Or does your cat have separation anxiety and requires lots of attention? I can handle it all!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
