Highlights
Pet care experience
Let Auntie Alex look after your pet
I have a Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming and Salon Management that includes a first aid course. I help my boyfriend run his successful dog day-care business, (open 10 years this year), which has had many different breeds and temperaments of dogs. From Dachshunds to Ridgebacks. I have experience with boarding at home for pre-existing clients, and I am branching out to offer sitting in your own home. I have specialised in nervous and anxious dogs in my dog grooming business.
Cat care experience
Alexandra also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I have my own car that is suited to transport cats and dogs . I have carriers, collars and leads as well as contacts at 2 different local vets. I am aware of some very safe dog walk locations. I am used to medications and dietary requirements as well as physical needs (one of my dogs had a metal plate in his legs and then eventually had it removed, another has had issues with her cruciate ligament) I will also not post any information on social media about where I am or who I am looking after until you are already back from your holiday. I will obviously update Rover whilst you are away and stay in regular contacts so that you have peace of mind. As I am also a god groomer, I can continue any grooming routines you have and may be able to sneak in a cheeky bath, face tidy and nail trim if you needed it.
Ratings and reviews
Alex has been helping with our Beagle Frank for about 4 years now. Frank LOVES her ❤️ We feel happy, comfortable and confident leaving Frank with Alex knowing he is well looked after, loved and treated like one of the family ❤️🐶
Over the last five years, Alex has cared for our two dogs since puppyhood, helping them grow into happy and well‑adjusted dogs. She is caring, professional, and clearly passionate about animals. Our dogs are always happy, relaxed, and well looked after, which gives us complete peace of mind. Her communication is always excellent and she treats our pets as part of the family. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alex to anyone looking for reliable, loving, and high-quality care for their pet.
Alex took amazing care of my sensitive, anxious dog in our own home, including giving medication, and treating him like her own. She has a wealth of knowledge is calm,kind and completely reliable. I would highly recommend Alex
If you are looking for a warm comfortable and loving home away from home for your pet I can highly recommend Alex. Not only will she look after your pet but you can be secure in the knowledge it will be loved and treated as one of the family. Alex is a kind and loving person and will ensure your pet has a happy stay.
Alex has been incredible over the years looking after a whole variety of our animals. From cats and dogs, right through to exotics such as bearded dragons and tortoises. Her knowledge is top notch and I couldnt recommend her more highly!
I have know Miss K for over ten years now. She is one of the friendliest, hard working people that I know and her natural affinity with animals is wonderful to see. As well as having unconditional love for all of her own animals she treats all of her clients animals as one of her own and they fit in just like another member of the family.

Schedule
I work from home as a dog groomer, and so working for myself means I can work around your dog's needs. Ideally I would work on bringing them to work with me, but only if I was sure about their safety and happiness. For cat or small animal visits, I would discuss with you what your normal routine is around feeding and socialising with them and mirror what I can to keep them as calm and reassured as possible in their own home.
