Compassionate, Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

A dog owner myself and having studied with the British College of Canine Studies which covers all aspects of dog breeds and behaviours I have the relevant experience to care for your VIP Pet, whether it be out walking or simply entrusted in your home dog sitting whilst you go about your daily business or simply take a well earned break from professional life. Ensuring that your dog gets the continued loving treatment he would expect as if he or she was with their owners. I am a fully certified Dog First Aider and carry at all times a fully equipped Dog First Aid kits in the event of any accident or injury Your pet can expect a professional walker or sitter, doggie treats and most importantly the attention it requires to ensure he or she gets the loving care which you entrust in me and of which I give to my own dog. Areas I cover are Alkrington, Bury, Elton, Ramsbottom, Didsbury, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Shaw, Milnrow, Littleborough, Manchester City Centre, Altrincham, Stockport, Bramhall and more.

I have known Alan for several years, both on a professional basis and personal, he is totally trustworthy and since he started his business I have used him to dog sit my 2 Collies over 3 weekends. Both dogs have taken to him quickly and even though Alan has his own "cockerpoodle" in the house as well they all got along just fine. I Know they are in good hands with sitter who is not only certified as a Professional Dog walker / sitter but it's also comforting to know that he holds a First Aid qualification in case of any doggy accidents (which can happen). Highly recommended ! He won't disappoint

My dog loves going for walks with Alan, he is always punctual and reliable and my dog always comes back happy with his tail wagging. I have found Alan to be a responsible trustworthy person so have no problem in him having a set of house keys. Sending me pictures of my dog during their walks gives me peace of mind and I can see that Toby is having a good time. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alan to all dog owners who are looking for a reliable quality service.

Thank you Alan for providing a great reliable dog-walking service. We can leave our Labrador with peace of mind that she will be well looked after and getting plenty of exercise while we're out at work, and also leave our house keys with someone honest and trustworthy. The dog tracking and photos from her walks are a great bonus, I'm always looking forward to seeing what mischief she's got up to, she has a great nose for muddy puddles! Thanks again, would highly recommend.

Worked along side Alan as a Senior manager for over a decade. Alan was seen as incredibly fair with any employee no matter what the circumstance, was always concerned about the emotional state and wellbeing of all involved. Costumer service was at the forefront of everything we did and always sought for excellence. Knowing Alan also on a personal level he will strive to offer absolute excellence and show great care and consideration not only for the pets but the owners also. Any employer will not go wrong with Alan's commitment, care and drive for excellence. Many thanks andy.d

For dog sitting in my own doggy home all I ask is that your dog is house trained and is used to being in the company of a dog friendly male dog called Jack the CockerPoo!
