Highlights
Pet care experience
Sit, Stay, Snuggle (Steve & Alexis)
We’ve had dogs our whole lives and now have our own little fur baby, Hiccup. We love watching pups gain trust and feel at home during their stay with us. Before moving to the UK in 2020, we spent over three years dog-sitting in South Africa. Now, we continue pursuing our passion for animals by caring for dogs together, with Hiccup as our friendly sidekick. We promise to treat your furry friends as if they were our own, with endless kindness, cuddles, and love. 💕🐾

Ratings and reviews
Amber enjoyed a short holiday break with Alexis D, and she settled in beautifully. She had plenty of opportunity to explore and loved her walks along the estuary, which is just a short distance from the house. We also received some lovely photos of Amber during her stay, which meant a lot to my daughter and helped her feel connected while Amber was away. Thank you both❤️
Alexis & Hiccup are absolutely wonderful. My dog had the best time and I received updates throughout the day. Would 1000% recommend
Alexis has been an excellent dog sitter. Very reliable and caring, and he kept me updated throughout with pictures and regular messages so I always knew how things were going. My dog was clearly well looked after, and I felt completely at ease.
Alexis was absolutely brilliant! We had to find someone with not much notice to look after our dog for a week. We didn’t want to use a kennel and were conscious that our relatively anxious dog would find any change stressful. A friend suggested we look on Rover and we found Alexis lived close by, had great reviews and was available. Alexis replied really quickly to our questions which was brilliant. We had a meet up before our trip to see how everyone go on which also put our minds at ease. When we were away, knowing our dog was being so well looked after meant we could enjoy our trip. Alexis sent regular updates with lots of photos and videos which we loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or use Alexis again. Thanks!
Alexis looked after Fimble beautifully when we were away on holiday and she sent us the most adorable updates including a video of her playing with their own dog hiccup . Thank you
Fimble had another lovely weekend stay with Alexis- thank you for looking after her so well .

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a back garden which is fully enclosed so it’s very safe for the dogs to enjoy. Hiccup spends several hours out there enjoying the fresh air and sunshine.
Pets
A typical day
Our dog Hiccup absolutely adores other dogs and would love a friend on weekends. We can provide varied level of exercise depending on your doggos needs. We would love to get a second dog but it isn’t possible right now, so alternatively we would love to welcome your doggo into our home! We love beach walks (and swims if the doggos like swimming) and country walks.
