Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover & Experienced Dog Walker
I’ve always been an animal lover — they instantly put a smile on my face. I’ve been walking dogs for around 10 years and often look after friends’ pets while they’re on holiday, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals and making sure they feel happy and safe. As I’m currently at university, I’m available most days of the week and can be quite flexible. I’m a reliable and responsible person, and I’ll always make sure your pet is cared for exactly how you’d like. Of course, I’ll also give them plenty of extra love and attention while they’re with me. I’m great at keeping owners updated, so you can feel reassured while your pet is in my care. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your best friend is being looked after with kindness and care — which is exactly what you can expect from me.

Ratings and reviews
Milo stayed with Cathie for a week while we were on holiday. From the beginning all communications were quick and easy. Cathie was amazing at accommodating Milo's medical requirements (including regular meds, reduced walks) and we received very regular updates. She made us feel very at ease while being on holiday, I don't think Milo would have minded staying longer at all! I would recommend Cathie to anyone needing a dog sitter!
Amazing sitter! Bo loves them and always comes back happy :)
Cathie looked after Penny for 9 days and kept her comfortable the entire time. It was the first time we had left Penny and Cathie made her feel as happy and comfortable as she does at home. I was kept updated daily, with photos and information about what they had done or how Penny was doing. Penny was looked after incredibly and had an absolute ball - I don’t think she wanted to come home. I will be recommending Cathie to anyone looking for a dog sitter, and will definitely be booking Penny to stay again. She provided five star service and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after Penny!
A1 walker good compunction highly recommend
Fantastic sitter! Bo had a great time and was well loved and cared for! Regular photo updates and lots of activities, would definitely use again! 😀
Cathie has walked my dog multiple times and takes great care of my dog. The dog also grew a bond for Cathie, and gets very excited when Cathie walks her.

Schedule
I currently work part time over the weekends and I am at university during the week. Mondays I am completely free, the other days I am only in university for a few hours so I am available most of the time during the week. My partner (Daniel) works in a dog friendly office as well and would be able to bring your furry friend in to the office if needed ensuring they weren't alone! He is also an animal lover and would help out during the weekends to look after your furry best friend!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet will be allowed to roam around the entire flat and allowed on furniture. I do live in a flat block with a security door for extra security that your pet would not be able to get out!
A typical day
I live right in the heart of Shawlands and near multiple parks. Your pet and I would go a nice big walk around the parks, go a visit to the highland cows at Pollok Park and then treat ourselves to a coffee in a pet-friendly cafe (as long as your pet is ok with this!)
