Pet care experience

dog and cat mum for life! :D

I have taken care of my cat of 16 years and now a dog mum of 9 years and occasionally take care of our family's very friendly senior sausage dog! Additionally, i've been taking care of many dogs via Rover together with my husband. We will both take care of your baby 100% like our own, we usually take one dog at a time to be able to give them lots of attention. If you let us know if there's commands you'd like us to reinforce (in any language, just give us a guide! :D ), we're happy to continue the training with your pup.

Our cat loves Kath! Kath is a caring and experienced cat sitter and she kept us updated about our cat whilst we were away. We came home to a happy cat.

Highly recommending Kath as a cat sitter - reliable, very kind and experienced. Our cat was happy and relaxed after a week in her care.

I really can't recommend Kathleen highly enough. She and her husband went above and beyond taking care of my cockapoo with all the details of feeding etc that she is used to. Their regular photos and videos were really appreciated and showed how much she was enjoying her time with them - with cuddles and long walks. I was able to relax and enjoy my holiday knowing she was so happy and safe with them. She came home full of joy from her own "holiday" too!

Kathleen and her partner were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Bibi! They kept us updated with lots of pictures, showing how much fun Bibi was having with her toys and new friends. They even let her sleep with them, making her feel right at home. We could tell Bibi was truly happy and well cared for while we were away. Highly recommend! Kind regards, Paula

Kath took care of my cat when I had to travel and did a very good job. I was getting updates on WhatsApp and when I got back home Cosmo was relaxed and happy showing she has a good hand to animals.

We left Charlie with Kath for a few days while I’m away for work and he had a great time staying with them. Kath always keeps us updated with pictures and videos and how Charlie is doing, and I’m glad Charlie and Fuji are also getting along ? think we’ve found ourselves a long-term sitter to work with!

Schedule

I usually work from home and I can manage my diary to allow breaks for friendly visits across the week and also anytime on the weekend! I can definitely make time to give attention to pets depending on their needs which i believe is important for a happy pooch. My husband & i work around each other's schedule so there's always someone who can play/feed/walk your dog should i be running a quick errand/in meetings. Your pet can also join our dog Fuji who have regular walks 2-3x/day!

Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I live in a 2BR flat on the 1st floor with a small fenced garden where pets can occasionally play or get some fresh air. We have a baby under 1 as well and is very entertained with our dog visitors. We always keep an eye out of course for his safety and the dogs. Our dog and dog visitors are allowed on the furnitures as well (if you prefer they stay at their crate or if they're not allowed, just let us know please) We also live near nice parks where i usually take my dog as well for 30mins to 1hr walks - Gunnersbury Park, Blondin Park, Boston Manor Park, Lammas Park and Walpole Park.

Pets

A typical day

I would usually allot play time indoors (like fetch, hide & seek, tug of war ) and walks (30mins-1hr). I have a small garden if pets would like some fresh air and quick potty breaks, but i am also near Blondin Park, Lammas Park, Walpole Park and Gunnersbury Park for the long walkies!

Let me know if your pet has special diet/behaviors for me to consider. It would be beneficial to know if they have basic training (sit, high five, drop, recall etc) or not, their sleeping/eating/walk schedule so I don't disrupt much what they're used to. On weekends, we usually take our dog Fuji to different parks (like acton park, Boston Manor park, Syon Park etc) and we commute by bus/tube so pls let us know ahead if your pet is comfortable in taking the public transportation as we'd love to take them with us on a nice dog day out too. :)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
