Animal-Loving Pet Sitter in Essex!

Hi! My name is Kat, I'm a self-employed digital marketer living in Harwich and I'm passionate about animal care. I volunteer with the Suffolk Greyhound Trust and at the Colchester Cat Rescue, so I am very familiar with looking after dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments! I also have experience volunteering in rescues across the world with animals from very different backgrounds and in different environments.

This is the second time Kat has stayed at my house to look after Bob and Lulu and she is amazing. My two cats adore her, which is an achievement as they are very selective. She sends daily pictures and updates, so I knew how my cats were. The place is clean and tide when I return, she is the perfect house guest. I cannot rate Kat highly enough.

We can't praise Kat highly enough, she looked after our fur babies with great care. Wonderful communication before and during the stay, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our break. We were so happy we have already booked her again for a break next year.

I couldn’t be happier with the care Katherine provided for my dog! She went above and beyond to make sure Lucky was well looked after and happy. Her communication is excellent, I really appreciate the regular updates and photos which gave me total peace of mind whilst I was away. It’s clear to me that she truly cares for the dogs she looks after. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!
