Our pet sitters provide a professional live-in service. Pets stay in their own home so their routines can be followed. Our team are fully insured, Disclosure Baring Services (DBS) checked, Canine First Aid trained and will spend a minimum of 21 hours per day with the pets in their care. We carefully match your pets to the most appropriate pet sitter so you can go on holiday or a business trip knowing your pets and home are in very capable hands!
Alison is the owner of Barnfield Pet Services and has been surrounded by animals all her life. From dogs and cats to small furries, caring for pets has always been a big part of her life.
Over the years, Alison has shared her home with a variety of dog breeds, including crossbreeds, Show Cocker Spaniels and several sighthound breeds. She has also welcomed and rehomed a number of rescue cats. Alongside her husband, Alison has fostered greyhounds and lurchers for Forever Hounds Trust and Lurcher SOS, helping dogs in need find their way to loving forever homes.
As a professional pet sitter, Alison has cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds, as well as cats, small furries and even the occasional reptile. This experience has given her a genuine understanding that every pet is an individual, with their own personality, needs and routines.
