Dog Sitting Alton

About: I have always loved looking after dogs or any animals. I have 2 dogs myself and a turtle. They are my world and couldn’t imagine life without them. I can work really well with pet routines and life styles. I work full time in a local nursery in Bordon but always happy to help look after animals even if it is a quick pop in visit in my break to let them outside or to feed them I will always make sure there routine works around me as well. I’ve never cared for someone else’s dog or animal in my house as I have 2 of my own dogs and it will just confuse them but I have always either stayed at that persons house or if they don’t need me to I pop over around the hours everyday to make sure that they are ok and got things that they need.

“Christina was brilliant, visiting my cat twice a day while I was in hospital. Sam was very happy to see her even though he can be a shy boy, and it was lovely to see photos of him each visit. I would definitely recommend Christina.”

About: I’m a kind, caring and passionate animal lover, currently undertaking my Student Veterinary Nurse apprenticeship. I have always loved animals and take great pride in caring for them as if they were my own. My experience started with completing Year 1 of my Level 3 Animal Management National Foundation Diploma in 2023, where I completed 150 hours of work experience across three different veterinary practices. I loved my time in practice so much that I continued volunteering once a week to build my experience and knowledge. In 2024, I became a receptionist and Animal Care Assistant at a local veterinary practice, before beginning my Student Veterinary Nurse training in 2025. This has given me valuable experience caring for animals, understanding their individual needs and recognising when they may need extra support or attention. I have also completed several pet sits for both dogs and cats and really enjoy getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine. I’m passionate about making pets feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owners are away, and I will always advocate for their wellbeing. I myself, have a 7 year old cockapoo called Bailey, an incredibly sassy 11 year old ragdoll (she enjoys a stroke while she eats!) and two chunky Guinea pigs. I’m excited to join Rover and provide the same loving, attentive care to your pets that I would give my own. My availability will depend on the shift pattern I’m working as part of my Student Veterinary Nurse apprenticeship. I’m happy to discuss dates and times with owners in advance to find something that works well for both of us. I’ll always make sure I can commit the time needed to give your pet the care and attention they deserve. I always put the safety, comfort and wellbeing of every pet in my care first. I understand that being away from their owner can be unsettling for some animals, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel comfortable in their own environment. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if required and plenty of companionship. I’m respectful of their home and will make sure they are kept in a safe and secure environment throughout my visit. My veterinary experience and Student Veterinary Nurse training have also taught me to be observant and recognise changes in an animal’s behaviour or condition. I will always communicate with owners if I have any concerns and follow their instructions carefully. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and care for them with the same patience, kindness and attention I would give my own.

“Rikki was very friendly and easy to deal with, was keen to know everything she needed to be able to look after my mother’s two cats, and proved reliable and a safe pair of hands, and very affectionate with the cats. Will definitely be using her again! ”

“Stephanie was quite simply the best!! Considering we had accidentally locked our cat in the garden office and he was finally freed, very angry, and she dealt so well with him. Lots of messages throughout the week giving us updates & looked after Boodgy brilliantly! would definitely recommend Stephanie to look after your pets! We will book again!”

“Highly recommend using Esme for drop ins, my springer spaniel is super nervous of anyone new coming to the house but having had a meet and greet a week before the drop in, she was fine. Esme played with both my dogs in the garden, kept me updated and even sent a couple of photos. Communication was excellent.”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I grew up rescuing stray dogs and giving them a safe place, food and love. Over the years I have cared for many different breeds, from small playful dogs to large strong ones. I am calm, patient and attentive to every dog’s personality and needs. For me dogs are not just pets – they are family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and being active outdoors. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate proper time and attention to each pet I care for. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings when needed. When I look after a pet, I make sure they receive enough exercise, attention, and companionship. I never rush walks and always adapt the time and activity to the dog’s needs and energy level. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority. I treat every dog as if it were my own. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any instructions given by the owner so they feel secure and relaxed. Even though I live in an apartment, I make sure dogs receive plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and fresh air through regular walks and visits to nearby parks. I keep a calm and clean environment and always focus on building trust with both pets and their owners.

About: I'm an experienced and reliable pet sitter with extensive experience caring for pets in their own homes through house sitting. I've looked after a wide variety of cats and dogs, from independent pets who are happy doing their own thing to those who love plenty of company and attention. I'm comfortable taking care of feeding routines, walks, litter trays, medication where required, and all the little things that help pets stay happy and relaxed while their owners are away. I work from home, so when I'm pet sitting I can usually spend plenty of time with your pets rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I'm also very respectful of people's homes and understand how important good communication is — I'm always happy to send regular photos and updates so you know everything is going well. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I mainly work from home, only heading into my London office once or twice a week. This means I can spend plenty of time at home with your pets, giving them company and keeping to their normal routines. My office days vary, so I'll always confirm my schedule before accepting a booking. I have extensive house-sitting experience, with around 15 five-star reviews on my own account as well as over 60 five-star reviews from sits completed jointly with my former partner. I also have experience with repeat sits and regularly care for pets whose owners have asked me back. I'm very experienced in staying in other people's homes and treat every home with the utmost respect. I'll follow your pet's usual routine and instructions carefully, keep your home secure and provide regular updates and photos while you're away.

About: Welcome! My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean and caring home where dogs are treated like family. I have several years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family and clients. Every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality, routine and individual needs. I have a flexible schedule, which means your dog will enjoy plenty of attention, walks, playtime, cuddles and a calm home environment. I always follow your instructions carefully and provide regular photo and message updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is in safe and caring hands. I look forward to welcoming your dog into my home and caring for them as if they were part of the family. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give every dog plenty of time and attention. I am available throughout the week and weekends for walks, playtime, feeding and overnight stays. I always adapt to each dog’s routine to help them feel relaxed and at home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow every owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines and any special requirements. I provide a clean, calm and loving home where dogs can feel secure and relaxed.

“Danielle met all our needs for our very unsociable cat and tortoise, she kept us informed and gave our cat lots of love, we would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again if she is available.”

“Laura was great. She came round to meet us and the cat, the cat had a prior engagement and was no where to be seen! Laura let us know each time she dropped in while we were away, due to the cat's very busy social schedule, Laura couldn't get a picture. Would definitely book with Laura again.”

“Lovely first drop in and walk by Edith for my Frenchie, Olive. My little girl was very well looked after while I was away for the day. Thanks!”

“We booked 2 home visits with Michael for an afternoon and evening visit. We are beyond grateful to have found Michael - we were looking very last-minute and yet Michael made it possible - and even made sure to meet Nelson (and us) beforehand which really put our minds at ease. It was the first time that Nelson was home alone for an extended period of time, and Michael helped it be a huge success. Nelson seemed calm and content whenever we checked in in between Michael's visits, and the feedback and photos Michael sent us after the visits confirmed this also. We are genuinely beyond grateful and felt that Nelson was in capable hands during the visits. I am sure Nelson can't wait to be left home alone again so that he can see Michael again! :) Thank you, Michael!”
