Loving Experienced Dog Boarder & Carer

During your dogs stay, my home is their home. They will never be left unattended. I have always looked after dogs of all ages & breeds of small to medium in size. During their stay, all needs will be met, diet, walks, medication, cuddles etc. Since a child every dog I have owed has been rescued, my current little guy is called Milhouse who is a very welcoming little Parson :) I will always make myself available for a meet & greet at an owners request.

Cannot recommend Alex enough, our first time using a service like this and our little Dottie was looked after so well. Alex kept us updated each day with how she was doing and we had a very happy pup when we arrived to pick her up!

Our dog Freddie stayed with Alex for a few nights while we were on holiday. Alex was really lovely during our meet and greet and was really reassuring and brilliant at answering our questions. She sent us updates on how he was getting on and he seemed to be having a lovely time! We would 100% recommend Alex and we will definitely send Freddie back to Alex in the future.

Alex and family did a wonderful job looking after Valkyrie. Alex knew i was somewhere where i had no signal but still sent updates letting me know how well she had settled and how well she was doing. I picked up a very happy dog and would definatley recommend Alex and her lovely family as a great place to look after your dog. Thank you Alex x

Alex is a superstar. We were a bit apprehensive of leaving g the dogs with someone they didn’t know. But she is great. Dogs settled just fine. I’ll definitely use her again with no concerns whatsoever.

Alex looked after my dog for 10 days while we were on holiday. It was my first time leaving him with anyone other than family and I’m so glad I found Alex. From our first message everything was so easy and she was kind enough to send us updates while we were away too. I will 100% be using Alex again and would recommend to anyone. Thanks Alex ☺️

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 6ft wall/fence around the entire garden. Every guest has free run of the entire downstairs. There are dog beds, but guests are more than welcome to chill out in the sofa’s or wherever they please, even on our bed if that is where they feel safest :) There is always fresh water. Every guest will have their meal plan exactly how & when their own instructs me to. There will always be lots of fuss & cuddles :)

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will always have company. Walks will be given, but these are optional as some dog owners don’t like other people to walk them. Lots of play time & time for naps.
