Pet care experience

Genuine and trustworthy pet care

I have grown up caring for a wide variety of animals, from guinea pigs and rabbits to cats and dogs. So animal care has always been a natural part of my life. Originally from Essex, I moved to Bourne End five years ago, and have since built a trusted local network of pet sitting clients. 
When caring for your pet, I offer more than just companionship and exercise. I also help look after your home while you're away, from taking bins out to ensuring everything remains safe and secure during your absence. I work locally in Cookham and I'm fortunate to be able to care for pets at my workplace if full time care is required. 
This is based next to Copus Farm. This set up allows for excellent walking routes, perfect for dogs who enjoy varied and enriching walks. To ensure the highest level of care, I only look after one pet at a time, allowing me to give them my full attention, care, and affection.

Alex was excellent at communicating, on time a s trustworthy. He overcame some struggles with getting Lulu comfortable with him. In the end she enjoyed her time with him and now (after only two days) seems to be missing him.

Geroge and Fluer had a super week with Alex. It was so lovely to come back from holiday to very happy dogs and a very well looked after home. Thank you Alex!

Alex was a pleasure to deal with and after meeting him, we had absolute trust that George and Fleur were in good hands. We would absolutely use Alex again.

Alex has been great when we needed holiday cover for our dog Sparky. Not only did he provide great care for him, taking him on long walks, but he also left the house absolutely spotless. Sparky is absolutely besotted with him and when he sees him pulling up on the driveway he cries in excitement. It is very rare to find someone you can completely trust to look after your pet and property and we feel extremely fortunate to have found Alex.

Alex has looked after my dog for the past three years, and I trust him completely. He has keys to my house and has always been 100% reliable, professional, and respectful. He is incredibly loving and caring with my dog, and it’s clear how much he genuinely cares — my dog absolutely adores him. I always have total peace of mind knowing my dog is in such safe, capable hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog carer.

Alex house sat for us in the summer for two weeks. This was the first time that we had left our cats with someone in our home and the entire experience with Alex was exceptional. We were provided daily updates and pics and it was clear to see that they were extremely well cared for and happy in their home environment. Now that we have found a reliable house sitter our cats will never go to a cattery again.
