Hi, I’m 25 and live in my own home with my boyfriend Jack and our Dutch Shepherd, Jett, who is a huge part of our lives and truly our pride and joy. I work from home full-time, which means I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision and companionship throughout the day. I offer dog sitting and doggy daycare in my home, dog walking and drop-in visits, giving you flexible options depending on what your dog needs. I don’t currently offer overnight boarding, as I feel many dogs are more comfortable and settled either spending the day with me or staying in their own familiar home overnight. My boyfriend has experience with obedience training, and together we’ve put a lot of time and effort into training Jett, including working on his reactivity and teaching him a variety of commands and tricks. This has given us a good understanding of the importance of patience, consistency and positive training when caring for dogs. I’ve also grown up around dogs, including a Beagle, American Bulldog and Cocker Spaniel, so I’m familiar with different breeds, personalities and the different ways dogs can behave. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ dogs, taken them for walks and looked after them when needed. Having Jett of our own has given me even more hands-on experience and taught me how important it is to understand each dog as an individual. Having recently looked for a dog sitter ourselves, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your dog. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality and needs, and I’ll always do my best to keep things consistent and make them feel comfortable and settled. Whether your dog needs some company while you’re at work, a good walk, a drop-in visit or somewhere to spend the day, I aim to provide a calm, safe and loving environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention and care. Your dog will be treated as one of the family, with their wellbeing, comfort and happiness always being my priority. Most importantly, I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing your dog is in safe, caring and trustworthy hands.

Safety, trust & environment
As mentioned, I work from home full-time, so dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods and receive plenty of supervision, attention and companionship throughout the day. I understand that every dog is different, so I always aim to follow each dog’s individual routine as closely as possible. This includes their usual feeding times, toilet breaks, walks, rest periods and any training or behavioural needs. I believe consistency is really important in helping dogs feel comfortable and settled, particularly when they are spending time away from their owners. For dogs attending daycare or being cared for in my home, there is a safe and relaxed environment where they can rest, play, have cuddles and receive plenty of interaction throughout the day. I’m happy to provide toys and enrichment suited to each dog, while also making sure they have quiet time when they need it. Our own dog, Jett, is used to being around other dogs, but I understand that every dog has a different personality and comfort level. Any introductions are handled carefully and gradually, with the dogs’ individual needs and safety always coming first. Walks are tailored to each dog’s age, breed, energy levels and ability. This could be a shorter local walk, a longer outing or simply some play and mental stimulation at home, depending on what is most appropriate for them. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits, so if your dog is more comfortable staying in their own home, I can provide care in their familiar environment instead. My aim is to provide reliable, caring and personalised support, whether your dog is spending the day with me, going out for a walk or receiving a visit at home. I want every owner to have complete peace of mind knowing their dog is being treated with the same care and attention I would want for Jett.
Ratings and reviews
Alisha agreed to look after my Sprocker Rolo at very short notice (late the evening prior for a 06:30 drop off) and was a life saver! Alisha was there waiting to greet us when I arrived - her house is lovely and she has a great garden and a friendly dog of her own to keep Rolo company. Alisha kept me updated throughout the day and sent lots of pics of my very happy pooch! She took him on 2 walks and filled in his care card online. You can tell she genuinely loves Dogs! She was super flexible too and said if I was back later than the alloceted time it would be fine which took the pressure off. I picked up a very happy Rolo who was shattered when he got home and gave me a peaceful night! Thanks Alisha for taking such good care of my boy - I would love you to have him again ❤️
Alisha and her partner Jack were brilliant with our two boys (a Lab and a GR). They came to do a pre-meet and got introduced, then came for 2 x 2 hour visits including a walk and feeding. The boys loved it and were thoroughly tired out from their walk. Would 100% recommend Alisha.

Schedule
At home, we follow a structured but relaxed routine, and dogs staying with us for daycare can easily fit into our day. Our mornings start early, with my boyfriend getting up at around 5:30am and letting Jett out for a toilet break, followed by his morning walk around 30 minutes later. Once we’re back home, Jett has his breakfast and settles into a calm morning routine with me while I work from home. As I work from home every day, dogs in our care are never left alone and will have plenty of company, attention and supervision throughout the day. They’re welcome to relax with me while I work, have cuddles, play with toys or simply settle down for a nap. We have a calm home environment and are happy to follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. Jett is a very affectionate dog who loves being around us and enjoys cuddles, playtime and relaxing at home. He has plenty of toys and enjoys interactive play throughout the day. Due to Jett being an active breed, we have a good amount of exercise built into our routine, including a mid-day walk and a longer evening walk. However, we always take each dog’s individual age, breed, energy levels and needs into consideration rather than expecting every dog to follow Jett’s routine. We’re also happy to accommodate your dog’s usual feeding, toilet and walking schedule wherever possible, so they can enjoy a familiar routine while they’re with us. At weekends, we enjoy exploring local woods, hills and other dog-friendly places, as well as spending relaxed time at home and in the garden. We can also provide dog walking and drop-in visits if your dog would be happier staying in their own home. Our aim is to make every dog feel comfortable, safe and included, whether they’re spending the day with us or we’re visiting them in their own home. Every dog is treated as an individual, with plenty of love, attention and care throughout their time with us.

- Let me know if your dog has any behavioural needs so i can be aware and whether they can be walked on lead/ off lead. If you would also like some obedient training completed my boyfriend Jack, really enjoys doing this so would love to help!
