My passion in life is to care for precious pets

I love to care for dogs, they become part of my family. I love to take them to the park and for daily walks I do not mind if the pets need medication. I am happy to administer what they need .I have pet sat with pets needing medication. I give my full attention and love to the pets I care for and look after them in a very loving and caring environment and help them to feel loved happy and relaxed during there stay with me. I would like there owners to feel confident they have chosen a caring loving pet minder who thoroughly loves to care for, there pets My professional life i was a live in carer companion for seniors , some people had pets I used to look after them, I am now retired and can give my full care and attention to the precious pets I will look after and hope there owners can feel confident that there pets are safe and happy, we will also have fun times together and play times I am now retired and looking forward to do what my passion in life is which is dogs , I had my dog 14 years but sadly lost her through old age I have lots of time in my hands now to love and care for peoples precious pets . I have a large fenced in garden which is very safe they can also have full run of house and in the evening cuddle up on the sofa and watch tv. It is like a little doggie holiday for them with plenty of toys to play with along with lots of love and care

Left our dog for two weeks and the care was faultless. We were kept updated regularly and our dog was clearly happy, healthy, and had been on lots of adventures and daily walks. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Catherine was great with my 18 month old Lab. her home was warm and welcoming, she sent updates and photos on walks with the dog and it was clear she was well looked after. Would happily book her again.
