I have also hosted dogs in my home for extended stays lasting several weeks at a time. I love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always strive to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away.

I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and weekend care. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands, and I will make sure they receive lots of care, attention, and companionship while you’re away.

About: Simply put, I cherish dogs. They're pure-hearted creatures who deserve all the love and care in the world. I grew up with dogs (Gold Retriever, Shih Tzu's and Beagle) for majority of my life so I'm adept, cautious and careful when they're under my care. In one of my profile pictures, which was taken many years ago when I was younger, you’ll see me with my Shih Tzu. I care deeply. I've walked and watched over a wide range of different breeds. Whether it's walking, house sitting or engaging with them in a fun & social setting. I believe I possess a strong mindset that enables my ability to care for these animals. I take this type of job very seriously because of the responsibility at hand. Dogs are such loving animals who look at their owner as their whole entire world. It's extremely satisfying to know the difference one individual can make. I truly cherish that.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, but my true passion for pet care grew when I adopted Yuki(Yorkshire Terrier) six years ago. He came from a home where he wasn't walked regularly, he was quite shy and anxious. Then he meet me, it took years consistency to show him love and patience. He is finally happy, confident dog that doesn’t scared to any random things outside anymore. Beside Yuki, I recently adopted Sunny(orange cat) and he was a kitten when I bring him home from a shelter. We become great family! I’m very comfortable with high-energy breeds.

If your dog stays with me, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, and opportunities to get outside. I love going for walks so so we can explore the neighborhood or go to a nearby park for them to get fresh air and playtime. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable. If you have a fenced yard, I’m happy to spend time playing with them and using their favorite toys. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and attention so they feel safe and happy.

Alicia is a superstar dog walker and we highly recommend her without any reservations. She meets the dogs at their level including running with our high energy labradoodle and cuddling/carrying our little Shih Tzu. They felt so much love and attention from Alicia. We appreciate you so much!
We had such a wonderful experience with Jennifer. She took amazing care of our dog and was so thoughtful and attentive the entire time. You can really tell how much she cares about the animals she works with. I especially appreciated all of the updates and pictures. they made us feel so relaxed and reassured knowing Pancakes was in such good hands. Our dog clearly loved her, and it meant so much to know she was being cared for by someone so kind and compassionate. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their pet!
Great job!!! Making Penny so happy She is behaving so much better after these walks Please if it’s freezing don’t mind hanging out in house with her and throwing her toy but great job if it’s ever really cold feel free to just let her out to go bathroom then play inside or walk around inside the building Thank you!!!!!
Elizabeth was fantastic. She was great with our dog Gus. She even met up with us before the first walk for a quick meet and greet, so we could introduce her to our dog. We greatly appreciated her help on a very snowy couple of days in Boston. Will definitely be booking her again.
