Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover! 💕
I’ve had dogs almost my entire life, I grew up with 2 large terriers and a lurcher in the house and I miss them so much since I’ve moved away! I have also taken care of family and friends’ dogs so I am comfortable looking after a range of breeds both large and small. I was well into my teens when we got our third dog so I helped out with a lot of the training and I absolutely loved it so I’d be happy to help teach any tricks or behaviour your working on at home so your pups won’t loose any progress while they’re on holiday :) Wether your dog is an energetic curious young puppy or a more senior dog that just wants to chill on the couch I’ll do my best to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m happy to send pictures and updates or answer any questions you have, I’ll try to respond as quickly as possible as I know how scary it can be leaving your pups!

Ratings and reviews
Our spaniel had a lovely stay with Catriona! We would happily book with Catriona again and recommend her services to others.
Cooper loved his stay! I received updates and pictures of him enjoying his walks and when I picked him up the next day he was so happy to see me but also was giving Catriona kisses goodbye and wagging his tail to her. He will absolutely be back visiting and staying again. Can’t recommend enough xx
Catriona was very helpful through the booking and Scamp seemed to enjoy his stay. She was wonderful for giving him his medication and taking him for walks. I would gladly have him stay with her again.
Catriona was great with Alfred, she was patient and updated me constantly. I would definitely book again, 10/10 recommendation.
I can highly recommend Catriona who looked after Poppy my dalmatian for a week recently. She updated me with how she was getting on and sent me photographs and poppy was in fine spirits when I picked her up.
It was the first time for Oso to spend the night with someone else. He is a very energetic puppy and we are so pleased it all went very well. Highly recommended!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am a part-time student, so I am available most of the day. I have a 1 hour class every day and I go to the gym on weekdays for about an hour. Apart from that I usually study at home so I shouldn’t be away for more than an hour at a time. I also go on long walks every day as part of my routine so I’m happy to take care of energetic dogs who love long walks!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a flat with lots of space for your dogs to play or lounge around in. I have a fenced garden that’s great if your dogs need to go out in the early morning or evening. I also live next to a park that has a big open space where lots of other dogs play in.
A typical day
I love going for walks in my area, it’s lovely and quiet and I have a favourite hour long loop that is perfect for dog walks. I also live right next to a beautiful park thats always full of dogs running and playing together. I’m also happy to keep your dogs brains engaged by playing games or continuing their training during their stay. Whatever your dogs need I’ll be happy to provide it!
