Irish girl who loves caring for animals

Pet care experience

I grew up in the Irish country side and have been surrounded by a wide variety of animals all my life. Since moving to London last year, this has been the longest I have gone without having an animal to care for or spoil. I am a masters student who has a good bit of free time and would like to share the love I have for dogs by helping their owners out and giving them attention and assistance whenever needed. I am use to small (Jack Russell and French bulldog) and big dogs (Great Dane, golden retrievers, black alsatians). I am very sporty and love keeping fit.

Kate stepped in at short notice to look after Bella when my original plans fell through. Kate sent me updates of Bella each time she visited and when I got home I could tell Bella had been well looked after. I would definitley leave Bella in Kate's capable hands again.

Kate was prompt, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. She was confident with my slightly quirky greyhound, and he took to her immediately which is always a great sign. Would definitely book Kate again!

Kate's a star! She's brilliant with the animals - the dog loves her and had a great time walking and playing every day - and he and the cat clearly enjoyed sleeping on her bed with her! Communication was great, with lovely photos to see how comfortable they were, and she also has lots of patience and flexibility with my constantly changing schedule. Thanks Kate - looking forward to seeing you again very soon.

Information Kate A. would like to know about your pet

I have no problem taking care of dogs with special needs, I had a previous dog with epilepsy and another with arthritis so I am familiar with some of the medication and treatment processes.

A typical day

Take them for walks, play some ball games with them to make sure they get rid of some built up energy, groom them and make sure they get fed well.
