Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog walker and cat sitter
Hello, I am an enthusiastic animal lover with extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. From a young age, I have had the pleasure of rescuing dogs from the streets and shelters, forming a deep bond with these incredible animals. Over the past 15 years, I have provided exceptional care for dogs and cats in my neighbourhood and among friends. Walking, playing, and nurturing these furry companions has been a true joy for me. I also volunteer at Dogs Trust in Harefield.

Safety, trust & environment
If you entrust me with the care of your beloved dogs and cats, I guarantee that they will be showered with an abundance of love, affection, and endless playtime. As someone who currently works full-time from the comfort of my home, I often take breaks from staring at my computer screen to venture outside for a refreshing walk and a breath of fresh air. On these occasions, I happily offer to take my neighbours' furry babies along with me. Furthermore, I am more than willing to travel to your location if necessary. I am genuinely excited to meet you and your cherished companion, and I can assure you that they will be in the most safe and nurturing hands. No matter the size of your dog, I am confident in my ability to form a strong bond and provide the utmost care. Effective communication is essential to me, so I will make it a priority to learn the important details about your dog before our first meeting. Rest assured, both you and your furry friend will feel comfortable and at ease in my care. I will provide you with photos and videos of your furry babies so you can relax and be sure that your dog/cat is enjoying their day.
Ratings and reviews
Aleksandra, whom we call Sandra, has been taking care of Layla, our beloved mini Schnauzer, for the past five years, and we couldn't be more pleased with her exceptional service. As neighbours, Sandra initially boarded Layla on several occasions, always ensuring she felt comfortable and loved. Over time, Sandra transitioned to walking Layla occasionally and house-sitting when we're away. This change was due to her rescuing cats that are anxious around dogs. This arrangement works perfectly for us, as Layla stays in her home environment and maintains her routine. Layla has truly become part of Sandra's family and is always treated with the utmost love and care. Our instructions are always followed, and we receive regular updates from Sandra when she looks after Layla. Sandra's genuine affection for Layla and her professionalism give us peace of mind, knowing Layla is in the best hands. She connects with Layla so well. This sense of harmony between them is very special, and on the street, we call Sandra our special dog whisperer. We highly recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.
Aleksandr (Sandra) has cared for our cats, aquarium and pond fish at our home many times over the past fifteen years when we have gone away and I have always felt confident that they will be well looked after. She treats and fusses over them as if they were her own and sends me updates and photos to show me that they are happy and comfortable. Our cats have always been relaxed on our return. I certainly recommend Sandra as a loving carer for any pet.
Sandra is amazing with our plummer terrier Bruno, she is so loving and affectionate towards him and has been so patient and understanding with his anxiety of new people, bruno has been on 2 walks with Sandra now and both times he has come home so happy.
I had the absolute pleasure of having Aleksandra care for my beloved furry friend, Paco, and I can't say enough wonderful things about the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that Aleksandra had a genuine love and passion for dogs. First and foremost, their communication was impeccable. She was always quick to respond to my messages, keeping me updated with photos and messages while I was away. This gave me incredible peace of mind, knowing that Paco was in good hands and having a great time. What truly sets Aleksandra apart is her personalised approach. She took the time to understand Paco's unique needs, preferences, and routines. Aleksandra ensured my dog felt comfortable and secure, which is essential when leaving your beloved pet behind. I also appreciated Aleksandra's dedication to safety and well-being. She diligently followed all of Paco's dietary requirements. She also provided plenty of exercise and playtime, ensuring that Paco was happy and healthy during my absence. When I returned home, it was clear that she had cared for Paco's physical needs and given him the love and attention he needed. Paco was so content. In addition to her exceptional dog-sitting skills, Aleksandra is a genuinely excellent, trustworthy, and reliable individual. I recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I'm so grateful to have found such a caring and capable person to look after my furry family member. Thank you, Aleksandra, for providing top-notch care for Paco! I look forward to booking your services again in the future, knowing that I can travel with complete peace of mind knowing that my dog is in the best hands possible.
Sandra has cared for our French bulldog quite a few times over the years, sometimes for over a week. Her and her family are amazing. They make sure they follow all your requirements (Paws, our frenchie requires daily medication) and spoiled Paws with lovely long walks and cuddles! I can’t recommend Aleksandra enough for either dog or cat care!!
Aleksandra has looked after my dogs Teddy and Paws on a few occasions. She's easy to make arrangements with, she's great with the dogs, listens and applies my rules (like no feeding from the table) and really takes care of them. My dogs love spending time with her. She takes them for walks and there is a lot of green space nearby. Her husband and kids are great with the dogs too. She's got a fenced off garden so the dogs can roam around and have fun when not being petted.

Schedule
Currently, I offer dog walking services in my radius and day care/boarding at your location. In April, I had the fortunate opportunity to rescue two cats within a month. One is Lulu, a 5-year-old beauty I adopted from the RSPCA, and the other is Tippy, a precious 6-month-old kitten who was discovered with his siblings and brought to me when they were just 10 days old. With Lulu's invaluable assistance, we provided round-the-clock care for these little ones, ensuring their chances of survival. As of now, I haven't introduced a dog to our home yet, as I want to give Lulu ample time to adjust after her traumatic past.
