About Alan
Located just off Thomas st
Dog walks: 30minutes around your area
Home visits: generally last an hour including a dog walk plus any needed task like feeding, playing and light cleaning.
Big dogs always need the most love and attention. And as a big dog owner, finding someone able to safely handle them can be a challenge. I'm more than happy to help. I can offer walks, visits, house sitting or anything in-between.
If you see me out and about in Stepaside, feel free to stop me for a chat—I’m always up for meeting fellow dog lovers!
I cannot kennel dogs at my home.
I'm happy to work with dogs or animals of any size. My dog Gus is 40+ kilos and has behaviour issues from an attack when he was a puppy. He's perfectly calm with people but doesn't socialise as a result.
I’ve had experience with dogs of various sizes, and I’m more than happy to look after larger breeds. My biggest dog so far weighed around 40kg, and I love the bond that forms with bigger dog.
Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for some wonderful dogs. My first was a German Spitz named Bobbi, who was full of personality. I also had a Springer Spaniel called Molly, who had the cutest puppies, and I’ve always enjoyed the rewarding experience of raising them. Most recently, I’ve cared for a Bernese Mountain Dog named Falko, who was truly a big softie and pleasure to play with.
