About Alison

I'm Ali, I'm 44 years old and qualified as Veterinary Nurse from the Royal Veterinary College in 2000. I have over 25 years experience looking after a huge array of animals - Dog, Cats, Rabbits, Birds, Exotics plus small holding animals such as Chickens, Sheep, Goats, Donkeys etc. I am also passionate about wildlife and the environment and spent 14 years running a bird and wildlife sanctuary in South Africa living with a house full of rescue dogs and cats!

I'm flexible and would be happy to discuss requirments personal to you and your pets. I have experience with nervous pets, those with special medical needs and always offer a personal service. I'm available for day visits to your home for feeding, cleaning, play, love and cuddles (minimum visit 30 mins +) .Along with my nursing experience I am pet first aid qualified, DBS checked and I have a full clean driving licence. I am based in Maidstone but for a small fuel surcharge cover surrounding and more rural areas. I also currently have some dog walking spaces available and can help with nervous or reactive animals.

I've had my own pets including dog, cats and small furries since I was a small child and I have a small flock of Herdwick sheep. I would be described as calm, gentle, trustworthy and concientious. I would be happy for the opportuntiy for a pre arranged meet and greet to get to know each other and your baby's requirements :-)

From the start until the end, my pet sitting experience with Pawshake and Alison has been positive. The booking process was easy and clear. Alison immediately put my mind at ease with our initial meeting to discuss my tortoise's needs, especially as I'd never left him with anyone other than friends. Throughout our holiday, Alison took great care of my tortoise, keeping me updated daily and taking photos and videos of him. She really went above and beyond at meeting our needs. I would highly recommend Alison and Pawshake and will definitely be using her services in the future!

Alison was everything we wanted in a cat sitter. She gave us peace of mind with our cat while we were on holiday. We received daily updates, pictures and videos from Alison and it was lovely to see how she bonded with our cat. We will definitely be using her again for our future trips! :)
