Pet care experience

Daily walks around Liberton

Hello! I’m excited to offer my dog walking and boarding services. Growing up on a smallholding in North Wales, I’ve had plenty of experience with many animals, but especially dogs, particularly golden retrievers, as well as English bull terriers, bulldogs, and working cocker spaniels. I currently care for my extended family’s dogs while they’re on holiday, so I’m well-versed in keeping pups happy and active. I work from home and have a small enclosed back garden, providing a safe space for your dog to play. As a single parent, I can't commit to having a dog of my own, but I love walking and go out every day. My favorite spots include the Hermitage of Braid, Blackford Hill, Mortonhall Estate, Craigmillar Castle Park, and the Inch Park. I also enjoy heading to the Pentlands for a change of scenery. I’d love to take your dog along on my adventures!

Catherine has minded our cats a few times, I can see they have a great time with their toys, brushes and a few treats. The cats are well cared for while we are away. Thank you Catherine

Catherine has been a delight to book with, every contact we have had with Catherine in the run up to the stay has been promptly responded to. Skye (little traitor :)) clearly loved every minute of her time with Catherine, and we will be delighted to let her stay again and for much longer next time. Skye is currently snoozing away after exhausting herself with much fun.

Catherine boarded our dog and he seemed a very contented happy dog when we returned. She also visited and fed our 2 cats. I highly recommend Catherine, she friendly and approachable with a great set up for dogs. Pets all happy at the end too.

Excellent, pixie can be a little difficult and from the photos Catherine looks as if she won pixie over. Which for us is brilliant, thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I have an enclosed back garden,. I have a 10 year old who is very dog confident and will love to help with play and walks when she isn’t at school. I live very close to great dog walking areas! Dogs are not allowed on beds!

A typical day

2 hours of walking a day usually 2x 30 min walk and 1x 1 hour walk (unless stipulated otherwise by owner.) I get up at 7-7:30 and go to bed 10-10:30. I work from home 90% of the time. I may have to go into the office but If i have a dog boarding I won’t be out for more than 3 hours .

Before I agree to take a dog I like to know where they sleep. How good they are off lead and what is recall like. How much energy do they have .
