Information Alex H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any specific special needs or quirks that I need to take care of / be aware of. I have experience with anxious dogs, big dogs and dogs that require medication - so I am again, very adaptable and flexible.

A typical day

I will stick to whatever routine and quirks I am provided by the owner. Love to cuddle and play with the dogs - long walks (or short, I don't mind) at any time of the day! I am incredibly flexible and loving.

Pet care experience

I've taken care of all types of dogs from the age of 18, looking after my parents small dogs (Cavaliers) and large dogs (standard poodles) for months at a time when they would go on holiday. I have carried numerous dog / house sits for friends and family, ranging from small to big dogs, puppies and cats. In 2025 and early 2026, I travelled for 10 months around Europe, New Zealand and Australia and was hired for 5 x dog sits in Australia over the last 2 months of my stay. Two 10 day sits, and three 3-6 day sits. I have experience with handling and administering medication, with a recent sit, all three pets requiring AM and PM medication. I work remotely from my laptop full time, so can give around the clock attention to your beloved pets & take great care of your house. I am incredibly organized, neat and tidy. Early morning person who can adapt to any pet's routine. I am great at sending updates during a sit, so if you wish to only receive one update and one photo please let me know and I'll make sure not to send any more than this! If you have a particularly shy or harder dog to deal with then please do not hesitate to contact me as I am confident and love a challenge. Barking does not bother me as it is just them expressing how they are feeling.

I have had Alex care for my dog for a week. Alex when he arrived was very friendly, asked questions about how to care for my dog. Left the house very clean & tidy. Would recommend Alex to care for your house & pets anytime.

It was pleasure to have Alex sit our house and dogs for us. Alex kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the sit. Alex left our house very clean and his pet care was exceptional. I would recommend him for any sit.

If you’re looking for a top-tier house and pet sitter, we cannot recommend Alex highly enough. He recently looked after our two dogs and our cat, all of whom required daily medication and he handled their complex care routines with total ease and reliability. Throughout our travels, Alex kept us perfectly at ease by maintaining regular contact, sending us frequent photo updates and thoughtful messages about how everyone was settling in. Not only was he incredibly friendly and professional, but we also returned to a home that was exceptionally clean and tidy. Alex is an outstanding sitter who truly goes above and beyond, and we would absolutely trust him with our home and pets again in a heartbeat.

Alex is always our preferred pet sitter & has looked after our Chocolate Labrador on many occasions. Always polite , reliable & leaves the house immaculately clean. He almost feels like one of the family.
