Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Active Dog Lover
I've been around dogs since I was 10 years old and have helped care for and train my family's dogs throughout the years. I regularly look after them, as well as dogs belonging to friends, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you can trust. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and maintaining clear communication, with regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for. As a very active person who enjoys walking and running, I'm always excited to give dogs plenty of exercise, companionship, and affection. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and caring experience for every dog while giving owners complete peace of mind.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a bright, spacious one-bedroom flat with lots of natural light and good ventilation, creating a calm and comfortable environment for pets. The building is quiet and peaceful, so there’s minimal noise and no busy household activity to cause stress or distractions. I have several grassy areas just outside my building that are perfect for regular toilet breaks and quick stretches throughout the day. I’m also within easy reach of local parks and walking routes, which allows for longer walks and varied outdoor time. The space is clean, safe, and well-suited for dogs who enjoy a relaxed home environment with a balance of rest, attention, and outdoor exercise. I make sure pets feel settled and comfortable, with a calm routine and plenty of companionship while they’re staying with me.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you for looking after Busy! Kathryn was great at communicating, and Busy immediately warmed to her - looks like they had a lovely day together
Kathryn is wonderful with my dog. Betty greets her with a wagging tail and shows her tummy, demonstrating complete trust, affection, and excitement to see her.
Kathryn really loves dogs and is excellent at caring for all types of dogs. She is attentive, reliable, and clearly confident handling different personalities and needs, and Betty is very well looked after in her care.
Kathryn has looked after our dog on multiple occasions. She is a very reliable woman and cares for our dog particularly well. She is really good with our dog and our dog always seems so happy to be with Kathryn. I would happily recommend Kathryn as a great dog carer.

Schedule
I work from home Monday to Friday, typically 9am–5pm, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I usually take a one-hour walk break at lunchtime, and I also exercise around 4:30pm, which is a great opportunity for an additional walk or run with your dog. I’m available for drop-ins before work, during lunch, and after work if needed. If I’m caring for your dog during the day, I make sure they get regular toilet breaks, enrichment, and attention, with at least one longer walk of around an hour each day to help them stay happy and well-exercised.
