Pet care experience

Loving pet owners based in N London

Dogs and cats have been part and parcel of my life since I was a child. I’ve personally cared for both pedigree and rescue breeds over the years and am particularly sensitive to anxious pets. I have also been through professional training with a few of my own dogs so can maintain reward-based training tactics you may have started yourself while watching over your pet.

Kate and Alessio were so great with my nervous rescue dog Korina, keeping her cool during the hot weather and giving her her medicine. They updated me regularly and sent photos that clearly showed that Korina was having a great time! Thank you both 🙏

Kate was amazing walking our dog Ellie for about 10 days. She is really responsive, caring and looked after Ellie during their walks. We got an update daily and our dog loved Kate! Thanks

Kate looked after my cats for approx 10 days and was absolutely wonderful. She was always on time, very caring, and clearly loves animals. My cats were happy, relaxed, and they warmed up to her so easily. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter. 😊

Doggy Day Care • May 13, 2026

Kate was amazing with our dog Elora. She went above and beyond to help us figure out how to make the day work and was very accommodating. It was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier to have found someone like Kate. Elora had the best time, we will definitely be rebooking with Kate from now on. Thank you again.

Schedule

Hi I’m Kate and married to Alessio who assists in caring for pets that stay with us! Between my husband and I, there is always somebody at home to look after pets. We have our own dog and daily walks are strict routine for us. We usually walk our own dog for at least an hour daily. We also have a large, secure garden so can accommodate dogs who needs access to outside at all hours.

Safety, trust & environment

We’re very aware of where dogs are, whether they’re getting enough rest, or simply need to spend some time alone. We leave our back door open when the weather is decent so dogs can come and go as they please. We maintain a regular feeding schedule and bath dogs after a muddy walk. We also have 3 separate areas with dog beds.

Pets

A typical day

We always start the morning letting pets out into the garden and with their breakfast. Fresh water is always available too. Typically our first walk of the day would be to grab a coffee and sniff around a few blocks of the neighbourhood. For longer walks, we’d either head to Highgate Woods, Priory Park or the Ally Pally. If we feel the dogs can manage it, then we might stop in at the pub for some cuddles and treats. In the evenings, we typically have a calm night in, watching TV and snuggling with pets. They have free rein of the house and garden during this time too.
