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, play fetch in the fields or our garden. 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. I am only considering housesits in France 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.

Parfait ! Alison a gardé zazou durant une après-midi et toi s'est merveilleusement bien passé ! Je vous recommande vivement Alison ! Merci encore ! !

Alison was an excellent dog and house sitter. She was always punctual with her communication (we spoke on the phone prior to agreeing the house sit). She took great care of the furry gang and I would have no hesitation in recommending her. She sent me photos of the dogs and kept me updated on a daily basis which was very reassuring. I came home to happy dogs and an immaculate house. Alison would be welcome to house and cat sit again for me any time.

I can’t say enough good things about Alison. Is there such a thing as a perfect sitter? I did not worry one bit about our dogs or the home because I knew she would take good care of all. In fact our pets barely got up from their nap to say hello to us after a week. Alison offered us peace of mind whilst we were away. High recommended.

There are no other words for it, brilliant!! The dogs were blissfully happy when I was away and everything was in order when got back. Could not ask for more. Alison's communication was clear, she arrived when she said, listened to instructions and left happy dogs and a clean and tidy house. I would have no hesitation in asking Alison to sit for us again and would highly recommend her to others. Thank you Alison!

Information Alison B. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know all about your dog - they're all different - what they like and dislike. How confident they are, whether they 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 and would like to continue to have dogs at our new home, a 4 bedroomed home with only us rattling around in it. We have a fenced garden at the back of the house and a fenced terraced area with tonnelle for shade. We enjoy having a little run around with a tennis or football with doggy visitors. Perhaps they would like a water hose on a hot day! With the hot weather and such a large garden our intention would be not to walk dogs while they are staying with us unless specifically requested for walking on leads. We could take them to the gorgeous lake not too far away.
