Pet care experience

Alys - loving, experienced pet sitter here to help

Hello! I am Alys (Alice spelled funky). I am an animal lover with ample experience looking after dogs, cats, horses and other furry friends. As a previous dog owner, having grown up surrounded by animals (small holding) I have a lot of experience managing animals of all sizes, shapes and personalities. I understand that pets have their own unique personality traits, routines, and needs and I will always accommodate - no request is too much, from medication through to dogs that have high energy, its all good :) Please consider my home as a 'home away from home' I have experience with anxious dogs, through to older dogs. Our family dog, Dylan is currently pushing 15 - old chap! and I regularly look after him, administering medicine etc. I have handled puppies including training young working labs / springers and cockers. Literally any type or age, I’ve got it. I lead active lifestyle (I am one of those triathlete nutcases), living on the Longleat Estate I have a huge garden and plenty of beautiful walks around me. I always take any dog in my care for at least 1 long walk per day (1 hour at lunch) and 2x 30-40 min walks both early doors and in the evening... obvious with plenty of toilet breaks in between unless exercise needs state otherwise. I work remotely - lucky me! So there will be no shortage of care and attention. I live in spacious 3 bedroom cottage, with a large secure garden and down a quiet country lane. My home is very spacious, a large open plan kitchen space and plenty of space to roam. Please note I only take 1 dog at a time (unless they are from the same household) so that I can give your furry companion the care and attention they deserve ⭐️

Alys is absolutely lovely and took amazing care of our 3 month old puppy. She sent regular updates which was really nice as it was our first time leaving him with someone, would definitely recommend!

Amazing Alys! Kind, considerate, chilled and a throughly lovely person. First time leaving my little dog and she made it painless and Waffle clearly adored her… we are so grateful we’ve found her ❤️

Alys was brilliant with my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day, and my puppy was very happy and relaxed when I got home, showing she had had a lovely day. I’ll definitely be booking with Alys again.

Alys is great, she looked after our dog Clara very well. She is kind and professional.She let Clara sleep in her bed, cuddled her a lot, went out for walk often and even made dog ice cream during the heatwave. She updated us every day and sent us a lot of pictures and videos. Clara’s was super comfortable with Alys and we could see her relaxed and happy when we picked her up after 2 weeks. Really recommended.
