Animal Assistance was started by Alison in 2007 after seeing a need for a professional pet caring service in her home town of Mossley when she couldn’t find help for her own dog Hector.
This encompassed her love and passion for animals with the requirement for a flexible, reliable pet care service in Tameside that people can trust.
Animal Assistance can walk, play, feed, love and generally provide flexible care for your pets. Whether you are away on holiday, ill, stuck at work, or just need a break, we can help, and the feeling that your pet hasn’t even been disturbed from their home or disrupted from their normal routine is a great comfort for both pet and the owner.
Alison started Animal Assistance in 2007 after a career in IT Sales. She is an active member of Canine Health Concern (CHC), and believes the formula for a healthy happy animal is exercise, affection, correct nutrition and fun training. She is owned by her Labradoodles Archie, Markle and young Winnie. Alison lives and mainly works around Mossley now the team has grown.
