Pet care experience

Energetic, happy home near canal and woods, Eccles

I have loved all dogs since as early as I can remember, big or small! I could watch and play with them for hours. I used to work with assistance dogs and have boarded several times. I have also had pet dogs in the past and currently regularly dog (and house) sit for 2 rescue dogs. I'm used to having dogs temporarily and making them comfortable in my home. I will continue any training methods and be very patient. I will also keep the dog to your preferred routine, if any, and measure all food. Dogs will get plenty of outdoor exercise and mental stimulation indoors. They will become part of my home and love exploring my large (somewhat overgrown) garden! My home is big enough to provide plenty of space for the dog to feel comfortable. They're welcome to sleep downstairs or in my room, whichever the owner prefers. As for me, I love enjoying all the best dog places - including Bridgewater canal and Worsley Woods. Great for lead work or controlled free runs.

I left my girls with her for the first time and she completely put me at ease from the start. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs and treats them like her own. Luna and Pixie absolutely loved having her stay, and it was so lovely knowing they were happy and comfortable while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking again 🐾💕

Alix was excellent. Raven looked like she had a very nice time with her and despite being anxious initially, she loved Alix after a short while. Alix kept me up to date throughout the day with how she was doing and I was grateful for this. Will definitely recommend her to take care of your pets

Alix was great from the beginning. Mac had lots of fun with her & she kept me updated on how he was getting on and sent pics. Definitely would recommend 😊
