Zoology student and animal lover 🌱

Pet care experience

I’m currently studying Zoology at Newcastle Uni. I would love to be able to look after some lovely dogs as I cannot see my own dog Mags as she now lives with my family in Spain. As part of my degree I have completed modules in animal behaviour and welfare, and recently I conducted a dog welfare audit at a local shelter. Last summer I was a research assistant for a dog behaviour study where we observed behavioural preferences for a range of dogs. Growing up, In addition to looking after my own pets I volunteered for the RSPCA- Both my first dog Charlie and my current dog Mags were rescues from the same shelter I volunteered at- I have been lucky enough to take care of a wide variety of dogs, both young and elderly, and I am experienced in caring for those who might need a little more attention or care. Nowadays alongside my studies, I volunteer for the Northumberland wildlife trust, and the Team Kenya charity. I adore animals and you can be assured that your dog would be well looked after with me!

Aleisha looked after our little dog for the afternoon whilst we attended a family event. He was very happy and well looked after! Would definitely call on her again for doggy day care - thanks Aleisha!

Safety, trust & environment

I like to stick to whatever schedule they may have for feeding/walks etc, and follow whatever cues they might give- some dogs like more interaction than others, and although I love playing or walking with them, I'm just as happy to let them have some alone time.

Information Aleisha C. would like to know about your pet

I have absolutely no breed preferences, however I would definitely like to know how good they are with other dogs. Both of my dogs were rescues who were initially very nervous of other animals so It would be fine if this were also the case with a new dog, and I would be well prepared to handle it as long as I knew what to expect from them (barking/pulling on lead etc.)

A typical day

I love to explore new areas, and I really enjoy a good walk so having some company for that would be great! I know every dog has different needs and so I am happy to adapt my schedule and approach depending on what they are suited to.
