Trusted Pet Sitting: Loving Care While You’re Away

Animals have always been a big part of my life, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep bond and understanding of their needs. From a young age, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed caring for and training dogs, attending dog training and agility classes twice a week since I was 11. Today, I’m the proud owner of two wonderful Newfoundlands, Bunny and Bear, who keep me busy with their exciting water rescue training. These experiences have given me invaluable, hands-on knowledge and a true passion for working with dogs of all kinds. But my love for animals doesn’t stop there! Over the years, I’ve also had the privilege of caring for a variety of other pets, including two cats—Indie and my gorgeous ragdoll, Beau—two Guinea pigs (Honey and Bee), two lionhead rabbits (Pumpkin and Jess), and even a Crested gecko named Manny. Each of these amazing animals has taught me so much about their unique care and needs, allowing me to develop a well-rounded understanding of animal care across different species.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, my priority is to ensure your furry (or scaly!) friends feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet and home with the utmost respect, following your instructions closely to maintain their routine and provide a stress-free environment. I prioritise safety by keeping a watchful eye on your pets, ensuring they are secure indoors or outdoors, and keeping hazardous items out of reach. Building trust is essential, and I take time to bond with your pets so they feel happy and at ease in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cuddling, or playtime, I strive to keep your pets content and your home just as you left it. My goal is to provide a seamless experience so you can relax, knowing your pets and home are in safe hands.

I cannot praise Alicia enough. She took absolutely fantastic care of my doggy Nelly and lovely Cats Baloo and Bear. Alicia went above and beyond in her care of them and nothing was too much trouble. Alicia's communication was spot on, she kept us up to date regularly and sent wonderful photographs. We were totally confident that our pets were happy and receiving lots of loving care. In addition, we came back to an absolutely immaculate house. We have already booked Alicia for pet sitting in December and she will definitely be our go to person when we go away in future.

Absolutely amazing service. The first time we didn't have cover for our fur babies and Alicia made us feel so at ease knowing she would look after them as much as we do! 🥰❤️

I needed urgent help with dog sitting, and Alicia stepped in at the last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was incredibly friendly, professional, and great with my dog, who absolutely loved her! It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you so much!

Alicia was amazing with our two labradors, looked after them so well and the house was spotless when we got home. She is really friendly and great with communication. Will definitely be asking Alicia to look after our boys again and would highly recommend her.
