Highlights
Pet care experience
Animals are family
I love animals more than anything and as such, I have decided to turn my passion into more of a business. I have been providing care for my family & friends pets for the last few years. As i work from home I am here all the time. I do have my own little lhasapoo who is my magnet, and is used to having other dogs sharing her environment for daily, overnight and weekly stays. I don't like leaving my little furgirl in a kennel, she would not survive that environment which is why I want to be able to provide the level of care that i would expect my furgirl to have in a home environment. There is a local park which we frequent a couple of times a day and we join other friends and their dogs. It is great for socialisation and really helps shy and nervous dogs build confidence. I will not let a dog off their lead in my care unless i am paying for a private enclosed field.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ali has always been absolutely fantastic with River! River is a Cocker Spaniel, so she can be very energetic and excitable, but Ali has always been brilliant with her. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after and River has always been so happy to see her. I honestly couldn’t recommend Ali highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog as if they were her own, Ali is exactly that person.
Ali cares for all animals, no matter how small or big. Dogs are her friends and you will know immediately when you meet Ali that you can trust her with your dog and this is not something that comes easy, but with Ali it does. She understand and loves dogs and she knows how precious they are. This is someone super silly when your doggy wants to play but also super serious when it comes to your dogs safety.
Ali is absolutely fantastic! ! From the very first time she met our dog, it was clear he was in caring and very capable hands. Our dog felt immediately comfortable in Ali’s house and company. Ali really treats all pets as her own. Her communication is fantastic and it’s obvious she genuinely loves all animals. We’ll absolutely be booking again and would recommend without hesitation!
I cannot recommend Ali highly enough! She has looked after my working cocker spaniel, Mabel, with the absolute highest level of care and attention. Mabel absolutely loves going to 'Auntie Ali’s'—her tail starts wagging the second we arrive. Ali showers her with love, and I always have total peace of mind knowing Mabel is in such safe, caring hands. Every single time she comes home, she is completely shattered from all the fantastic walks and fun playtime she’s had. If you are looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, Ali is the absolute best. Thank you, Auntie Ali, for keeping my Mabel so happy and thoroughly tuckered out
Alison has a natural gift with dogs that comes from a caring and compassionate heart. She treats all dogs with happiness and smiles and cares deeply about their wellbeing and health. I wouldn't trust my dog with many people and often feel anxious when I have to leave him with someone else, but I trust Alison completely and know she will treat him as her own when he is under her care.

Schedule
I work from home so i am available all day to ensure that your dog is cared for and can get regular breaks and walks.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and a key locked gate and your dog will be supervised when in the garden. I will keep all dogs on a lead when on walks. They will have the run of the house like my dog and can sleep wherever they want. Equally happy to follow any training that you are doing with your furbaby. Cats can happily roam around unless you would like them separated.

A typical day
It will be up and breakfast time and a quick walk before work. There will be regular breaks in the garden and plenty of toys for them to play with along with hidden treats to find. At 15:30pm we head to the park for a meet up with other doggy friends. Anything from 45mins to 1 hour 30. It is then home for tea and i like to provide plenty of cuddles after work. Your furbaby will be fussed over and I will keep you updated with pics and happy to do video calls so you can check in to see how they are doing at any time.
