I'll treat your animals as my own!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog groomer professionally for 2 years, but did it as a side job in clients homes for about 2 years prior. I have been dog sitting for at least 6 years of my life altogether and have loved every minute of it! I also worked as a dog handler at a doggy daycare for a year, so I know a lot about dog behaviors and what makes them happy and what doesn't. I also have a lot of experience with senior dogs who need a little extra help around the house and outdoors and am completely comfortable helping them in every way I can. I have plenty of past clients already and am always looking to add more! I am more than happy to stay overnight at your home with your dogs, but can only drop by a few times a day if you'd prefer that. I can also take your dogs out to the dog park or just on easy going walks.

Reliable, conscientious of my 2 dogs special meds needs, and really looked out for their comfort. Good job.

Alicia was awesome! She stayed with our two dogs for the week-end and they loved her! She is very good with the dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving them for the week-end. She kept in touch via cell phone and we received pictures to let us know they were doing fine. If you want someone dependable, prompt and loves your dogs, this is the girl.

Alicia came over to meet us before our trip. She is very professional and our dog immediately loved her, which is rare. I felt reallly good leaving with her in charge. She texted us daily to give us updates. We got home and everything was in order and our dog was happy. We will definitely recommend her highly to anyone needing a dog sitter! We would give her five stars!

Information Alicia B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the dogs general temperment as well as how they get along with other dogs, male or female. I'd like to know the age, breed and sex of the dog, as well if they are spayed or neutered or not. I love all breeds of dogs, but I've found myself to love Yorkies and Shih Tzus a little more.

A typical day

We can go to any close by local park and take nice long walks. Or go to a nice dog park if the parents are okay with it and play with other dogs. My experience in a dog daycare taught me how to read other dogs and how to stop anything before it starts so there is no worry about your dogs safety. We can also stay home and relax on the couch(if allowed) and watch T.V. or play in our own yard.
