Pet care experience
*currently in school Tuesday-Saturday 8 hours a day* Why you should hire me: 1: Well for starters, I am probably the most animal loving person you will ever meet. I have never come in contact with an animal I did not fall in love with immediately (even ones that bark a lot, or like to claw your leg up!) 2: Constant updates (if that’s what you want.) There are typically two types of people I sit for; those that want lots of pics (and even facetimes) and those who are busy, and would like one or two updates. I will clear it with you before you leave town whether you want little to no updates - or lots, and how often you want them. 3. My job is completely mobile, so I do not need to leave during the day for work. Because I work from my phone and computer, and don't have to work more than a couple hours a week, I can give your pets undivided attention! 4. I am on Rover because it makes me happy; not because I need the money. Dog’s give me a special warmth in my heart. House sitting truly just gives me the most insane pleasure and happiness; I am in this for the love. That being said; I want to constantly play with your dog’s (or cat’s,) we will run together, walk together, play together! And if they are shy, I will work with them to become comfortable around me before rushing into anything. 5. I have experience with dog’s who’ve had a really hard life! I know the signs, I can read when a dog is feeling anxious, nervous, excited, hyper, angry, scared, or just sad. When pet parents go out of town whether or not it’s for the first time, it is hard to know how they will act, especially with a new sitter. I can help your pet relax, and feel safe and loved in the comfort of their own home. And of course I will give any and all updates of these things! 6. I have experience with all types of animals! I had 4 chickens, 2 cats, and 2 dogs growing up. I have raised multiple puppies,and helped train out negative behaviors. I have watched horses, chickens, cats, dogs, birds, and even reptile friends. That being said, if you have a few extra pets in your home, and are worried about them; I am here to help! 7. I’m available on short notice! As long as I am not booked for another house sitting, I will leave my house right when you send me a message! 8. I will gladly come for a meet and greet, and a 20 minute walk for free! I will answer any questions, and you can see how I am with your pets in person! 9. I always answer within minutes of a request! I am fast, and reliable! 10. Honestly and genuinely I am a very friendly and loving person. All I want to do is please the pet(s), and the pet owner. I will bend over backwards for animals, and the parents so they know their animal is safe! I have even gone and purchased food for a dog while the owners were out of town, paid out of my pocket. If you have a late flight I will gladly stay and wait with your pets until you say it’s ok to go. If your trip is delayed, I will gladly stay the extra night or two (as long as I have no house sittings booked those days
Reviews
Alycia was so great with our dog & cat! She stayed overnight at our house for 5 nights & left everything in great shape. She’s clearly a natural with animals and both our pets really took to her. Thank you Alycia!
We loved Alycia and so did our German Shepherd Eliza! Our girl is not great with new people but after the first rough night, she warmed up and really seemed to enjoy her week. Alycia was great about keeping us updated and sending pictures and videos. She also took good care of our house, brought in about 100 packages for us (!) and gave the cats some love too. We would absolutely invite her back to watch our fur babies in the future.
Alycia watched our sweet little boy while we were out of the country on really short notice. She was communicative and kept our place pristine. I would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!
Wow, are we lucky we found Alycia! Alycia and her boyfriend stayed at our house and took care of our 2 dogs for about 18 days. At our meet n' greet we could tell that their caring and love for animals would provide our fur babies with a loving environment while we were gone. Alycia was calm and laid back yet detail-oriented; she asked great questions about medication and routines. While we were away, one of our dogs wasn't eating much for a few days. Alycia did an excellent job communicating with us and letting us know how he was doing and also called the vet to ask her advice on the situation. Alycia was very responsive via messages and sent us lots of photos. We feel grateful that we were able to leave our pets in such caring hands and enjoy our vacation. We hope to have Alycia and her boyfriend watch our pups again soon and highly recommend her services!

Information Alycia N. would like to know about your pet
Anything you think is necessary to know about your pets behaviors. Specifically if they get along with other people/ dogs. Or any dietary needs, how they are with other people, if they sleep in a crate or out and about. And how long they can be alone for.
A typical day
Depending on where you live- I will gladly take your pups to any nearby parks, or any desired route for a walk. If you have no request on a specific route, I will let the dogs decide. This is their time! I want them to have the best time while you're gone! They will be pampered with love!

I am currently in school full time Tuesday- Saturday. So Pet sitting will have to be around that. I don’t typically work outside of school, so my free time from school could be spent with your pets!
