Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy holidays for your dogs!
We always had dogs as I was growing up and I had a dog of my own for a number of years. After that it wasn't practical to have my own dog so I decided to do dog sitting. I really enjoy looking after different dogs so now this is what I do full time. I have experience of caring for a variety of dogs - both in terms of breed and age. They are treated as if they are part of my family and my aim is that they are happy and relaxed when they stay with me. I have looked after a number of dogs who are anxious when away from their owners or who have to be given medication. It gives me pleasure when owners tell me how content their dog is with me. Before your dog comes to see me, I usually visit you in your own home so they know me. Then you can visit me with your dog in my own home so they are familiar with the new environment before they come to stay.

Thank you for looking after Ruby . I've never felt so happy leaving her as I know she will be and has been well looked after xxx
Thank you Catherine for taking such good care of our Ruby. I have never seen her so relaxed .
Catherine provided a home from home experience. Thanks again Catherine for looking after Lola.
Fraggle always loves staying with Catherine. She sends regular photos and we can go away knowing he is well looked after.
I’m so happy with how my girl settled with Catherine. I was so worried about leaving her for the first time for us to go on holiday. I have a very clingy cocker spaniel and she settled amazingly with Catherine. I’m so glad I’ve found somewhere I know she’s happy and content. I can’t thank you enough. 🥰
Fraggle is always so happy to go stay at Catherine’s. We always know he’s going to be well looked after which helps us relax and enjoy our time away.

Schedule
I am a full time dog sitter and also mark SATs and GCSEs from home at certain times of the year. Therefore I am with them almost all of the time.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and supervise dogs whilst they go out. I enjoy walking and make sure all the dogs have regular exercise. If you want me to, I will follow your routine with your dog.
A typical day
I love taking your dogs on a variety of walks. They have free run of the back garden when I am out there. If they bring toys with them, we play either them too.
