I have been pet sitting professionally for the last 10 years in the UK and in several different countries. I am a member of several pet sitting agencies and several petsitting websites. I am fully DBS checked and have pet insurance. I am also certified in pet first aid.
I have always worked remotely from a home office and I look after pets whilst working from a home office. This works out very well as I am always together with the pets and take them out for frequent breaks and walks. I stay in the pet owner’s home to look after pets in the comfort of their own home.
I will care for a pet in the owner’s home so they are in familiar and safe surroundings. This is always the better option for anxious pets, rather than kennels or a cattery.
I love to take dogs in my care for lovely long walks, especially to the beach or country parks and exploring new places together. I love playing ball with dogs in my care.
I will always come and do a meet and greet with pet owners and their pets before embarking on a sit. I like to ask a pet owner several questions about their pets before I accept a petsit. What are their daily routines and feeding instructions? Is any medication to be administered? How are they with other dogs/children, which they may encounter on walks. Can they go off-lead? Does their dog have good recall or not and should stay on the lead. Are they anxious about anything. Please tell me anything and everything that you think I need to know about your pet.
I am a petsitter extraordinaire and you won't find a better petsitter than me. I will send daily updates with texts, pictures and videos so that you can rest easy on your holiday. Being extremely clean and tidy, you will always return to a clean and tidy house and more importantly, happy and content pets!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
I am a professional house and pet sitter and needed cover for a special client as I was already booked. I discovered Alex through Pawshare and after a discussion, she agreed to do the sit. Having met her at the house of the client, I was very confident with my choice.
When the client returned from his holiday he said the dog was superbly happy and he was very grateful to Alex for helping him out. She is reliable and very animal oriented which is a great comfort to clients. I will certainly use her again.

Alex looked after our 3 cats and very nervous and reactive rescue dog for a week. I’d been so worried about leaving her but as soon as Alex arrived I could see I had nothing to worry about as Summer took to her immediately and she’s clearly very experienced. She had lovely walks and even a trip to the beach and it was lovely to get photos of her which was very reassuring. We came home to happy pets and a house much tidier than when we left! Alex is a real find and we will definitely be asking for her help next time we want to go away.
