About this sitter

I'm a caretaker and troubleshooter by nature, and enjoy caring for homes with great attention to detail. Moreover, due to my lifestyle, I no longer live with a pet so, a big part of my MMM engagement has to do with me being able to give love to the fur babies. It makes me quite happy.

Why they want to house sit

I usually seek a sit when I need to recalibrate, write or explore an area for research. I'm also open to relocation, so these sits support a more residential perspective, rather than a tourist.

Their experience

You will feel very safe with me in your home, which I leave in pristine condition. Although I come as a solo package I'm trained in kung fu, and enjoy building projects and gardening. I also teach tai chi and chi gung. I'm very aware and peaceful. There are seven testimonials on MMH site.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring a sense of trust and security to homeowners as I'm sensitive, calm and detailed oriented. I have rescued abandoned squirrels, transported injured turtles to their habitat (It was in the middle of the highway), returned chicks to their nests and help whenever the situation arises. It's how I' made.

Thanks Alice!

Alice enabled my husband and I to take a 10 day vacation to Mexico, caring for our dog, cat, 7 chickens, home, as well as running our busy Airbnb business! Alice flew from her home in Miami to ours in San Diego, arriving the night before we were to leave. After a very fast crash course in the house routine and setting her up to run the Airbnb business, she dropped us at the airport. This very energetic lady didn’t miss a beat! When the Airbnb app didn’t work as expected, she improvised to keep communication running smoothly. Our guests during that time left glowing reviews, as she was friendly and personable to all of them. Our precious pets received great care and an unexpected 7 day visit from our son-in-law and 5 year old grandson was met with grace and caring when they needed temporary emergency housing. She even stepped in as a surrogate grandma to our grandson, playing with him and having him help her with a chicken egg hunt! Alice kept in touch as much as possible, with our cell phone service being sketchy at times. She was able to keep all the balls of our busy home in the air with grace and without losing her cool. We are very grateful to Alice and will not hesitate to contact her next time! Thanks Alice!

A Wonderful House Sitter!

Alice is one of the best house sitters I have ever had, and I've had many. Her communication about my animals was excellent. She is thoughtful and left my house sparkling, even better then how I left it for her. She even left me beautiful flowers. She has great energy and is a true animal lover. Thank you so much Alice, it was a blessing having you stay with my babies!

All The Extra Touches

Alice was is GREAT. Not only did she provide loving care for my cat, she sent me daily messages with photos and videos to stay in touch. I had a couple of small issues at my house and she contacted the property manager and managed the repairs. I returned home to fresh cut red roses, a gift, little "love notes", dark chocolate gelato, and a clean house. Alice was very caring and professional. She even took my senior kitty to the vet to have him checked because she was concerned about his health. And, she speaks Spanish fluently! I can highly recommend Alice Billman for any house sitting and pet care assignments. I was able to relax and enjoy my 3 weeks away from home because Alice is so caring.

The most AMAZING rock star house/pet/cat/chicken/red dragonfly sitter EVER

Alice recently stayed at our home. I CAN NOT say enough great things about her. Honestly, where do I start? She left our house immaculate. In fact, she even organized my tupperware and linen closet. She cleaned my oven. I could go on and on. Most importantly, Alice took excellent care of our three kitties, twelve chickens, numerous gardens and two outdoor fish ponds. She arrived in Austin the day before we left and I knew immediately that I trusted her 100%. She stayed in touch with me while we were gone and I was able to enjoy our time away with zero worries. Alice...COME BACK...please!!
