Friendly family house, pets are treated as my own!

Pet care experience

We are a dog loving household, with a variety of experience over 15 years with all sizes and ages of dogs. We understand that all dogs are different and each has individual needs to be catered for! We treat them like our own babies when they're in our care. I'm currently a "house wife" with school runs being the only times I have to leave the house. I spend the Inbetweens with my own two dogs, so thought, why not help others with their fur babies too!? I have a 8ft fenced back garden area specifically for the dogs, with artificial turf, which is cleaned daily. I have two pups (jack Russell & a small female German shepherd) both are dog friendly, but crate trained and can be separated if preferred. Dogs are allowed on sofas, my bed, but the children's bedrooms are gated and not accessible to the dogs. In your own house, I would follow your own rules to keep your pup's comfortable.

Great sitter, flexible for our needs and Sandy had a great time! Very communicative and understanding about our nervousness and Sandy’s quirks. Sandy enjoyed being around other dogs and kids too, and had plenty of good walks. Will definitely be using again!

Hi, Alexandra. Thanks for looking after our little man while we we away. Got home from the airport early Sunday morning, and he was curled up in a ball on the sofa, all happy and relaxed ☺️

Alex dog sits for our two dogs regularly. She is very attentive to their needs, follows our instructions and cares for them as if they are her own. She's very knowledgeable in their behaviours and training. She keeps us updated with photos and they love her to bits.

Information Alexandra B. would like to know about your pet

Any behavioural issues. Whether they can be off lead safely. Whether they prefer one on one walks or don't mind one of my pups coming along too! Either can be accommodated.

A typical day

I love taking dogs out and about, we find a secure area for off lead experiences if needed. Walks through woodlands, parks and beaches are my favourite. I can also work on basic training commands, recall and provide enrichment games to get the pups worn out!
