I'm currently taking a break from my full-time job, which is great because it means I have a completely open and flexible schedule. Pet care is my main focus right now, so I can be available whenever you need me. This allows me to completely tailor my day around your pet, ensuring they get all my attention and their routine stays the same while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not offer pet care in my own home. All of my services are provided in the pet owner's home, which I believe is the best environment for any animal. My priority is to ensure your pet remains comfortable and stress-free in their own familiar surroundings, with their routine completely uninterrupted. I take my responsibility to look after your home just as seriously as I do your pet. Having sat for dogs and cats all over the Dorset and Hampshire region, you can trust that I am a reliable and respectful presence in your personal space.

Information Kate P. would like to know about your pet

Health & Safety: Any pre-existing conditions, allergies, or medication schedules. Please provide your vet's contact details. Routine: Food type and schedule, exercise and walking needs, and where they sleep. Personality: How they behave around new people and other animals, and any fears or triggers I should know about. Supplies: The location of their food, treats, toys, lead, and any emergency items. Home Instructions: Any specific instructions for the home, such as alarm codes or security details.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets is all about settling into their normal rhythm. My main priority is to keep to their schedule so they feel comfortable and stress-free. For the dogs, our mornings will start with an energising walk, and throughout the day, we'll get out for more adventures, with walk times ranging from an hour to two hours, depending on their energy. This could be exploring local routes, visiting a dog-friendly park, or enjoying a fun game of fetch.

Pet care experience

I believe in providing customised care that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and loved in a home environment. My approach is defined by my special skills and dedication to peace of mind for pet parents: Customised Care: I make an effort to understand a pet's unique personality and energy level to create a personalised routine that goes beyond a standard walk or feeding. Tidy Home Guarantee: I will always clean up after every visit, ensuring your home is left just as I found it. Specialised Skills: I am experienced with puppy training on basic commands and comfortable with the specific needs of senior pets, including oral medication administration and managing slower paces. Reliable Communication: I provide regular, detailed updates with photos and videos to give you complete peace of mind while you're away.

Kate has been looking after my cockapoo for a few years now and does such an amazing job, my dog is so excited to see her every time. She is very fun, caring and reliable and i get photos during their walks/house visits to keep me updated. I can trust Kate with giving my dog their tablets/medicine and food when required aswell as making sure my dogs water is topped up. I would highly recommend Kate to anyone who is looking for a loving pet caregiver.

I have known Kate for many years. She is friendly, caring and reliable. Kate has looked after my pets many times : cats and tortoise. I have trusted Kate with a key to my house and know that she had turned up and not only fed my pets but spent time with them too.
