Hello my wonderful Pawshake family! My name is Alex and I live with my partner Ben, and our two wonderful doggo's, Shadow and Boris. Over the course of our lives, we have both owned a wide range of dogs of all different types of breeds and we both have experience with animal rescue, specifically rescue dogs and cats.
We began as Pawshake sitters three years ago to offer an afforable option for petsitting whilst also providing continued socialization for Boris and Shadow while they were growing up. Sadly, Shadow also needs a double hip replacement so all money we earn through Pawshake is going directly towards his new hips! Over the last three years we have looked after dogs, cats, birds, horses, chickens and incubated eggs too. There is no creature too great or small in my opinion!
We absolutely love all dogs and enjoy playing with, walking and spending time with our furry friends! At home, we have our beautiful rescue Staghound Cross who is 5 (ish) years old named Shadow. He is quite large but very playful and good with other dogs once he's been introduced with supervision. We have also have a pocket rocket named Boris, he is a Swedish Vallhund and is absolutely adorable and loves to play all day, definitely the life of the party.
When we have a meet & greet, this is a chance for me to meet you and your pets to make sure we're a good match and go over the details of what you would like me to do while you're away, their food, exercise needs, special needs and general routine etc. The more information we can cover the better! I can offer dog walking, house visits and house sitting on a regular basis. Let me know what services you need and we can find a way to make it work.
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
Alex and her partner are more than accommodating for Ziggy. Getting walks and a photo updates throughout the day keeps my mind at ease.
Alex has done a fantastic job walking my massive 70kg Great Dane x Bull Arab mix! Gus now gets excited when he sees her at the front door for their morning walk.
