Hi, I’m Alice! 👋🐾 I’ve always been the person my family and friends call when they need someone they can completely trust to care for their pets and home while they’re away. After years of looking after dogs, cats and homes for the people closest to me, I decided it was time to turn something I genuinely love into a professional service. As a dog owner myself (my energetic Springer Spaniel, Ernie, certainly keeps me on my toes!), I understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs thrive on long countryside adventures, while others are happiest with a gentle stroll and plenty of sniffing. I always tailor walks and care to suit your pet’s age, breed, energy levels and routine. Ernie happily walks for up to an hour, so I’m more than comfortable with active dogs, but I’m just as happy taking things at a slower pace for puppies, seniors or more relaxed companions. Outside of pet sitting, I work in creative production where organisation, communication and attention to detail are part of my everyday life. Whether I’m caring for your pets or your home, you can be confident everything will be looked after with the same care and respect I’d expect for my own. What you can expect Every visit is centred around keeping your pet happy, comfortable and sticking to the routine they’re familiar with. Depending on your booking, this could include: 🐾 Walks tailored to your dog’s individual needs 🐾 Feeding, fresh water and administering medication if required (provided I’m given clear instructions) 🐾 Playtime, enrichment and plenty of fuss (if they enjoy it!) 🐾 Cleaning up after pets and keeping their living areas tidy 🐾 Lots of cuddles, companionship and reassurance while you’re away 🐾 Regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy If I’m staying in your home, I’ll also happily bring in post, water plants, put bins out, and leave everything clean, tidy and secure. Caring for different personalities Not every pet is instantly confident—and that’s absolutely okay. I take the time to let nervous or shy pets get to know me at their own pace and always use positive, patient handling. For energetic dogs, I’m happy to provide plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation to keep them occupied. My priority is making sure every animal feels safe, respected and cared for as an individual. My aim is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, keep your home safe and well looked after, and ensure you return to happy pets and a home exactly as you left it. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family members! 🩷🐶
