About Alex

My partner and I have recently moved house and do not have a pet of our own (we have family dogs and cats), so I would love to be able to spend some time with yours whilst giving them exercise and company. I've always loved dogs and cats (and other pets too!) and would love to spend more time with some amazing new furry friends. 

I've always had a dog in the family - we currently have 2 German Shorthaired Pointers (12 and 2 years old). We got our 12 year old, Bruno, as a puppy in 2010. Recently, Buzz (2 year old) joined the family - he was adopted after living wild for 2 months! My Grandma's dog, Fleur, is a 12 year old Jack Russel, so I'm also used to dealing with small (and surprisingly yappy) dogs. I've therefore got lots of experience with dogs from walking , training (basic), comforting to looking after. 

My partner's family has 3 cats, so I'm well adjusted to looking after cats as well as dogs. Tortoises too - if anyone has one! 

As an outdoors person and dog lover, I am primarily looking to offer dog walking services. I work remotely with quite flexible hours, so can offer walking services before 9am, around lunch time and in the evening almost every day. I would offer walks from 20 minutes to an hour during the working day, with the potential for 1 hour + walks on weekends

I would also be open to dog or cat sitting in your home. I drive so would happily do pick ups/drop offs.

A bit of background about me - I'm 24 years old, working with mapping technology (remote 90% of the time, otherwise working in Cambdirge). I graduated from Swansea University in 2020. I'm now living with my partner in Chipping Norton - we moved here at the start of 2022 after moving out of our old home in Faringdon. As we rent, I cannot offer your pet to stay at my home.
