Farms with pastured livestock are welcome! 🚜 While I have experience navigating challenges, I now typically refer sits involving potential major natural events (wildfires, floods).

I own an electric car πŸš—πŸ”Œ (usually in Vancouver or Seattle) and I'm flexible: we can discuss a car swap, my transport, or using your vehicle. I'm licensed, insured, and a confident driver.

I enjoy snowbirding β˜€οΈ but am open to sits in Seattle, WA or Vancouver, BC if they are 6+ months.

Alicia was a very good house sitter and went above and beyond our expectations.
From House Sitters Canada
Archer was well taken care of by Alicia for the duration of my trip. I received daily updates of his walks and hikes. Archer is very connected to his people and it was great to see Alicia bonding well with him. Also, my home was very well taken care of and in perfect order when I returned. I'd happily recommend Alicia for anybody looking for a housesitter and will reach out to her again next time I'm travelling.

Alicia cheerfully took on the care of our elderly, fussy cat. She maintained regular communication with us while we were away from home and we could see that the cat was well looked after and content. Alicia even left food in our fridge so we wouldn’t arrive home with nothing to eat. We can highly recommend her services as a cat sitter.
From House Sitters Canada
Alicia was amazing! I really appreciated the clear communication and her responsiveness. She proved herself to be very competent and trustworthy. I so much appreciated the photos and videos of the animals while I was away, it really eased my mind. She even fixed my robo-vacuum that malfunctioned! I was so surprised that she took the time to do that because I'm sure it was incredibly tedious and time consuming and it demonstrates the care and consideration she puts into caring for the house ... MoreAlicia was amazing! I really appreciated the clear communication and her responsiveness. She proved herself to be very competent and trustworthy. I so much appreciated the photos and videos of the animals while I was away, it really eased my mind. She even fixed my robo-vacuum that malfunctioned! I was so surprised that she took the time to do that because I'm sure it was incredibly tedious and time consuming and it demonstrates the care and consideration she puts into caring for the house and pets. I would have never bothered to try to fix it, so I very much appreciate that she did and now it works like a charm! Perhaps better than before. Highly recommend Alicia, she did a great job and the animals loved her. Thank you Alicia :)

Alicia is a superb and experienced house sitter. She took wonderful care of our cats, plants, and home for three weeks! She has excellent communication and is a very pleasant person. She was very interested in the cats' needs and personalities and as a result got along well with them. Looking forward to hopefully having her sit for us again in the future!
From House Sitters UK
Alicia was lovely! Communicative, took care of my cat, & paid attention to her recurring skin issues that I’m working on with her vet. I appreciated how engaged she was.
Alicia was wonderful and I couldn't have felt more comfortable with her sitting my small dog and Siamese snowshoe. She took great care of Rosco who has eyesight and deafness problems and both pets loved her . The house was clean and she washed the linens and towels which was quite unexpected and appreciated . Also enjoyed receiving photos of them while I was gone for 3 days Highly recommend

We were happy to have Alicia for the second time. The dogs always get great exercise when she cares for them. She has a lot of energy and takes the dogs on her adventures.

Alicia was great! She kept sending us pictures of all the fun things she was doing with our dogs. And they were always very happy. We found them very well taken care of when we got home. The house was immaculate, she even took care of some clothes we had to wash. Everything was clean and in order on our arrival. If you need a caretaker, we recommend Alicia.
