Highlights
Pet care experience
Young, highly active and outdoorsy
I live on a crop farm allowing a huge amount of space for animals to run around and exercise, but I also enjoy walking and have the energy to tire even the most energetic animals! I work from home as a mobile bike mechanic so can be around to ensure the animal is looked after close to all of the time
Cat care experience
Alexander also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live alone on a farm fully fenced in farm, My grandparents live on the same land, they have a small and very friendly, if sometimes grumpy, 9 year old Jack Russell who I love dearly and help look after very often. They also have 2 cats who are outdoor cats and come and go as they please, but usually stop for a stroke and a treat if given the chance.
Ratings and reviews
Fantastic sitter. We’ve never used a dog sitting service before so had some reservations, but once we met Alex we felt immediately at ease. We liked that he’s "outdoorsy" as our dog has lots of energy and needs plenty of walking. Alex gave us excellent daily updates with photos whilst we were away which we enjoyed receiving and it was clear he bonded well with both our cat and dog. We felt comfortable letting him live in our house whilst we were away due to his respectful and courteous demeanour. In short a trustworthy and likeable person who clearly loves animals. Will definitely use Alex again.
Fitzroy had a great day with Alex, thanks for looking after him!
Alex was great, from enquiry to collection. Alex was quick to respond and was absolutely great with Luca. Thank you so much
We can't recommend Alex enough! The dogs loved spending time with him and it is clear he loved spending time with them. Alex is responsible, contentious and caring. He goes above and beyond when looking after my dogs and I don't feel worried leaving them in his care.
Alex has always been great with animals and has a good temperament around both cats and dogs. He is caring and always has the animal's best interests in mind. When Alex owned cats they were very happy and healthy. He's currently living with family who have a dog and you can tell they've created a special bond. When I'm away I ask Alex to care for my cat and I'm always confident that he will do an excellent job.

Schedule
I am a bike mechanic working from home so can fit in animal care very easily within my week. The longest time I will need to be away is whilst going to the gym, or driving to pick up a bike
