Pet care experience
Currently studying for my degree to become a registered canine behaviour therapist. In the past I’ve worked at a vet clinic and I have been a foster home for dogs and cats (including those with high needs and daily medication). I’ve always had pets, mostly cats and dogs but also caged animals. We currently have a 9 year old neutered male Labrador and a 6 year old neutered male pug. I’ve completed one level of obedience training with the lab and 3 levels with the pug. We have 4 children aged from 8 to 14. My husband and I both work from home so your dog will have human company 100% of the time, with the option of cuddles and playtime with 4 dog loving children. Your dog is treated like one of the family while staying with us. As my husband and I work from home, someone is always home. We do daily dog walks and can be flexible with timings. Our children love animals and are old enough to respect a dogs needs, whether that be more attention or more space. We have a large fenced back garden. We have 2 friendly submissive dogs who love to play. We have access to dog walks on lead or off lead. We have a large home, with pet friendly furniture and beds.
Reviews
Hector had a wonderful week with Kate and her family as well as her own dogs and a couple of other doggy guests. Booking was easy and Kate was positive, caring and professional. As first time Rover users we were concerned about how Hector would manage while we were away on holiday. However, Kate WhatsApp-ed us messages throughout the week reassuring us of Hector's happiness and care over the week. When we collected him on Sunday he was so pleased to see us, but also a little sad to have left his new friends behind. We will definitely be looking to use Kate again when we need to book a doggy home stay. Thanks so much!
Excellent looking after our dog as usual, she loves being with you and your family, we will be sending her over to you again for sure. It’s just like home from home for her if not a bit better
2nd time we’ve left Harry with Kate, always so easy and stress free! Kate kept me up to date with Harry’s boarding and he has a great time. I highly recommend!
Muffin (15 months old Labrador) had a wonderful time with Kate and her family, Kate send me regular update message and pictures throughout Muffin stay and treated Muffin like her own. We will definitely asking Kate to look after our dog again, thank you Kate

Information Kate W. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to know what their history is with children and other dogs so we can adjust accordingly. It’s also important to know how well they behave on walks.
A typical day
Your dog will always have another dog to play with. Your dog will get two daily walks to an open field where he/she can fun free if they’re allowed and chase a ball with our Labrador. Village walks for a good sniff, or a trip to the beach are also options for daily walks. Health restrictions? No problem. We can adjust.

I’m currently studying for my degree but the dogs are my priority and I fit studying in between dog walks and beach trips. Cleanliness is important to me and garden poo pick up and steam cleaning are part of my daily routine.
