Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving and reliable pet sitter
Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with a special soft spot for cats - I’ve had them around me for as long as I can remember. I also have experience caring for dogs, having looked after the pets of friends and family over the years. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I'm reliable, easygoing, and always happy to send updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands 😊

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I'm always happy to visit or stay in your home if that's where your pet feels safest. I’m very respectful of other people’s homes and routines, and always aim to provide a calm, caring environment where pets (and their owners!) feel at ease.
Ratings and reviews
Kate kept us well informed on how Busby was getting on whilst we were away. She left the house spotless and was quick to respond to any messages. Kate was a fabulous dog sitter, very friendly and approachable. Thank you!
We had the pleasure of having Kate look after our precious older girl, Mimi, and we genuinely couldn’t have wished for anyone better. Mimi is an older, very nervous cat who usually finds strangers quite overwhelming, so we’ve always been anxious about leaving her, even with friends or family. From the moment Kate met her, though, her calm, gentle nature immediately put Mimi at ease. It was amazing to see how quickly Mimi relaxed and settled, which is something we rarely experience. Kate cared for Mimi as if she were her own, showing so much patience, kindness and understanding. It was obvious that Mimi felt completely safe, comfortable and loved throughout her stay. We also received regular updates and lovely photos, which gave us so much reassurance and meant we could truly relax knowing Mimi was in the very best hands. Kate is an absolute gem, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their beloved pet. We’re so grateful for the love and care she gave our girl, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again.
Kate stayed in our place for a week to look after our cat Peggy and was amazing from start to finish! She helped us out super last minute when we had another sitter cancel. Excellent communication throughout, kept us updated and sent pictures, so we knew Peggy was being well looked after especially throughout the 30+ heatwave and getting all the cuddles! Kate left our place tidy and even changed the bed for us. Thank you so much Kate, we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter! Peggy misses you! 😻
Betty had a wonderful stay with Kate , she was well cared for and came home content and calm. Kate kept in touch throughout reassuring us and sharing pictures which certainly helped us have an enjoyable holiday knowing that Betty was happy and well looked after. Thankyou so much to you and your housemates for that attention and care you provided during Betty’s stay with you
Kate is loving, attentive, and kind with all animals. She treats pets just as she would humans - with respect and a calm demeanor x

Schedule
My schedule is pretty flexible - I'm available most evenings and weekends, and I can usually work remotely 3-4 days a week, which gives me more flexibility to care for pets. I do my best to accommodate different routines and am happy to work around what your pet needs.
