Totally retired so available most of the time , I am able to be flexible and love a change of routine. I may be off looking after dogs if I’m not in but my husband and I share responsibilities to make sure each pet is never left alone for more than 3 hours unless you specify otherwise.

Information Alison B. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know all about your pets- they're all different - what they like and dislike. Are they allowed on the sofa? Do you allow them upstairs ? What is their nighttime routine etc How confident they are, whether dogs get along with other dogs, are allowed treats or not, as well as other dietary or medical needs of course.

A typical day

Having experience in the Uk as a dogsitter, house sitter and dog walker, we moved to France in 2020 for a few years and would like to continue now in our 3 bedroomed home with only us rattling around in it. We have a fenced front and back garden a neat terraced area for shade - we have no real grass any more however. We enjoy walks along the lovely paths around here, on leads only for absolute safety. If I feel confident about your dog being off-lead, at your request I can accommodate that after a trial run.

Calm, Caring, Experienced Walker & Sitter

Pet care experience

I adore all types of animals and have had or cared for many dogs, cats, small animals, chickens and enjoyed the company of a few farm animals in my time too. I used to work in Admin but took early retirement to enjoy life and use my skills and experience regarding caring for dogs in particular. Like my husband I enjoy the outdoors and travel, we love a good walk and it's more purposeful and fun if we accompany a dog or two and we live just less than a mile from beautiful Leasowe beach. For walking services Walks for your dog/two dogs will be from your home on lead not from being in a van or car - walks will be as varied as possible so there’s plenty of good sniffing opportunities for them. We have had the privilege and responsibility for caring for cats and dogs in other peoples homes, as well as having our neighbours' cats and dogs to look after in our own. Dogs on the sofas is absolutely fine as long as we'll cover them with nice clean blankets for the duration of their stay and make them feel at home. We now have a hard-landscaped garden, sorry no real grass. I am only considering housesits along my with Andy my husband. We have done a number of home turf and international sits together very successfully. Thank you for reading my profile.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
