Animal lover with a lifetime of caring for pets

Pet care experience

I have looked after many different pets of my own as well as for other people and so understand catering for differences in pet characters. I regularly care for family friends' dogs when they're away or at work and so have a lot of experience.

Alex is such a wonderful, caring and responsible person- I have never met someone who loves animals more than he does! I have left my dogs with him multiple times and they are always so so happy in his company. Alex will always be very attentive with animals and very playful- I couldn't recommend him enough!

We have a lovely home near Sydney Gardens in Bath, with a big garden in which our dog spends a lot of his time. We take our dog for 1-2 walks a day up in the fields/forest behind our house or down along the canal. We feed our dog twice a day and often add tastier treats to his regular food.

Information Alexander R. would like to know about your pet

It would be important for me to meet the pets I'm going to be sitting a bit ahead of time so that they can get used to me and it's less of a shock for them being in a new home. I'm sure this wouldn't be an issue but it would also be good to know that they will get on well with my dog.

A typical day

We take our dog out for a walk 1-2 times a day, which he loves. In addition I often sit and work in the garden with him, while he goes to get his ball and I throw it down the garden for him, on and off all day long. In the evenings he watches me cook and I'll often give him some treats from dinner in his bowl afterwards. We all then sit down most evenings to watch TV, and my dog lies on his bed next to me while I stroke him.

I am currently working remotely at my family home and already look after my old Labrador (Billy). I am in all week but often away at weekends, when my mum looks after our dog. I always love having other dogs round too, and enjoy taking them out on one of our lovely local walks with Billy.
