Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets are Family
Hi there! We are Katherine and Chris, lifelong animal lovers with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. We’ve volunteered at animal rescue centres, fostered animals in our home, and raised our own beloved dogs from puppyhood to their senior years. We both work hybrid schedules and coordinate our days so one of us is always home during bookings. That means your dog will have company, plenty of attention, and lots of play time throughout the day! We live in a flat with a private, fully fenced garden that’s perfect for potty breaks, outdoor play, or fresh air. We’re also just a short walk from our local common and are happy to head out for relaxed strolls or longer walks depending on your dog’s routine. Whether your dog loves a game of fetch, a quiet cuddle, or a bit of everything, we’ll follow their lead and keep things familiar and comforting. We’re happy to stick to their usual routine and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how they’re doing!

Ratings and reviews
I booked Katherine super last minute and she was amazing. Nothing was a hassle, she sent me lots of photos of Lula and she was so accommodating with the late pick up time as our flight was back late from holiday. So nice to find someone lovely nearby. Thanks again x
Katherine was lovely to communicate with and Archie had a great day with Chris. Lots of updates through the day and he looked very happy and comfortable. Would definitely book again!
Katherine and Chris were great. friendly, communicative and clearly both dog lovers. Koga had a great time at theirs for the day with one of their regulars Cam, and came back happy and exhausted! wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
I can tell Willow really enjoyed her day, and Katherine was great at providing updates and pictures too. Will be booking again.
Katherine was a fantastic weekend dog sitter for our 1-year old cockapoo. She kept us in the loop with lots of pupdate photos and took him to some lovely little local parks. We would love her to look after him again in the future :)
Kirk had a brilliant time with Katherine and Chris. Lots of pictures and great communication, most importantly Kirk has come back a super happy dog.

Schedule
We plan our schedules so that one of us is always home when caring for your pet. With flexible work-from-home days, we’re able to offer regular potty breaks, time in the garden, and walks that match your dog’s usual routine. We’re happy to adjust to whatever helps them feel comfortable and settled!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a private, fully fenced garden where dogs can safely explore and enjoy outdoor time throughout the day. Inside, there’s plenty of space along with toys and activities to keep them happy and engaged. Dogs are welcome to relax and make themselves at home, and we’re happy to accommodate crates, beds, or anything else your dog is used to so their routine stays familiar. Safety is always a priority for us. On walks we typically keep dogs on lead unless you request otherwise, and we’re lucky to have an emergency vet just at the end of our road for extra peace of mind.
A typical day
A typical day includes walks on the common, playtime in our fenced garden, and lots of attention! On warmer days, some pups love splashing in our paddling pool, while others prefer a game of fetch or a comfy spot for a snooze. We’ve got plenty of toys and treats on hand, and we’re happy to include any training reinforcement or routines your dog is used to. We can keep your dog on lead during walks or let them explore off lead in safe areas - Just let us know what works best for them. Every day is tailored to your dog’s needs and preferences to help them feel happy, relaxed, and loved!
