Pet care experience

Referred to by friends as “the dog whisperer”

I grew up with a Miniature Poodle who I doted on until he was a senior dog. Since, I have had a big dog spaced hole in my heart so regularly look after my friends puppies and dogs when they are on holiday or weekends away. I treat all dogs as they are my own and nothing is ever too much. I get great joy from taking long walks with dogs, followed by a rewarding bath and treat. Your dog will be spoilt with affection.

I felt comfortable with Alastrina the moment I arrived at her home, but most importantly my boy was happy. Alastrina has been so accommodating, she kept in touch and Monty had a great time with the benefit of being the only pooch, and getting all the attention he needs. He's looking forward to his next stay!

Alastrina put our minds at rest instantly upon meeting her. She was very kind & was happy to follow Ralphie’s routine. It was our 1st time leaving him, but I know we felt far worse than he did and a daily photo & message kept us in the loop. She’s our go to home from home now for Ralphie & we’d thoroughly recommend her.

Another booking completed with success, with our dog being looked after with great appreciation. Alastrina is responsive to messages, gives peace of mind through contact before, during and after bookings. You can tell she loves animals and has a lot of time and patience for them!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a non fenced garden but when looking after dogs I take them out regularly on their leads for the toilet. My flat is fully puppy and dog safe with plenty of treats ready for your fur baby!!

A typical day

I love to do plenty of walks throughout my day, especially to the local park so there will be plenty of new smells and places for your dog to explore. I like to play with them plenty too to ensure they are being fully stimulated.

I really appreciate it if you are able to let me know what commands your dog responds to when I am with them as I find this makes life a whole lot easier!! Also, let me know if there’s anything I should be aware of in regards to their routine etc.
