Information Alex H. would like to know about your pet

We like to make sure your pet feels confortable with us so we will take things at their pace. If they are nervous around new people we feel it is good to know this so we can approach the situation differently. If staying in your home we will need to discuss any specific house rules also.

A typical day

If your dog has a usual routine we can stick to this as best we can to not interupt their day too much while you are away. A usual day will include walks, playing and lots of cuddles of course :)

Pet care experience

I have always been a huge animal lovers, most of the time id rather be with pets instead of people :) I used to have a blind jack Russell so I'm used to giving dogs that little extra love and attention. I also had a lovely old patterdale rescue and a beautiful rescue Collie. I can offer pet sitting in my own home as long as they are ok with the resident old man cat :) I can visit your dog during the day and take them for walks though I do work myself so would be around this. I also offer drop off and pick up services if you need your dog transported anywhere. Please only enquire if your furry babies are happy and comfortable to be left alone for 4-5 hours during week days. Evenings and weekends I'm completely free and can be with them the whole time if needed! I can also help if you have other pets too! Including cats and small furries/reptiles and even farm animals! I work currently but can always fit dog sitting around my day during the week and am free evenings and weekends! I offer pet sitting in the owners home or can do drop in visits and walks! Please message me even if my calendar looks full as I could work something out! I will treat any pet like they are my own. I can work around you to find the best care needed for your furbaby! I can offer multiple daily walks for those with more energy, or a slower pace for the more senior out there. Please let me know any specific rules you like to follow in your home and I will ensure we stick to them

I felt confident that my cats, and house, was in capable, caring hands whilst I was away for a long weekend. When I returned home all was well, and my cats had clearly been well cared for. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Alex if you are considering having someone stay in your house to look after your pets whilst you are away.
