Pet care experience

Book a Local Pet Sitter You Can Count On

I've grown up around dogs and have always loved being around them. Over the years, I’ve looked after a wide range of breeds and temperaments through dog care apps, as well as for friends and family. Whether it’s playful puppies or older dogs, I tailor my approach to meet each dog’s needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 15, 2026

Katharine has looked after Dave our stubborn sweet pocket bully twice a week during our stay in Oxted. Dave loved going to her home, always trotting in happily and from the Rover card photos she had free rein and enjoyed the attention! Katharine was always reliable and a great communicator which was lovely. Thank you from me and Dave!

Katherine is absolutely lovely! Our German Shepherd, Marvin, is very timid when his moms aren’t around. Katherine patiently spent nearly half an hour helping him feel comfortable enough to come downstairs, trust her, and eventually let her put on his harness and take him outside. She never gave up or rushed him—she gave Marvin all the time and reassurance he needed. Katherine also cares for our pocket bully, and we will happily continue using her services in the future. She is kind, patient, dependable, and truly wonderful with our dogs. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Katherine looked after my dog Andre for a night and she provided me with a reassuring update and photo. He can be anxious at times so I was glad to know he was happy.

Katharine was great with Branston, who is a full energy spaniel! It was my first time leaving him with non-family, she was great, very calm and sent regular updates and pics. I think he had a great time.

Thank you so much, Katherine! I was nervous leaving my dog for the first time but Katherine was very reassuring and sent me picture updates! She was very flexible when I changed the drop off time last minute and Max looked like he had a great time. Max will definitely be back to stay!

Schedule

Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home on Monday and Wednesday to Friday, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m very active and always start my mornings with a walk, plus I head out again at lunchtime—perfect opportunities for getting dogs out for fresh air and exercise. I can easily adjust my schedule to suit your pet’s needs, whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or just some company during the day.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my care are treated like part of the family. At my home, I have a secure, fenced garden with plenty of space for them to move around and explore safely. Indoors, they’ll have a calm, comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at ease. If I’m caring for a pet in their own home, I’ll make sure to follow all the owner’s instructions closely and treat their space with respect and care.
