Myself and my partner both work flexibly from home. We’re able to take time away from our desks and often go for long walks during the day. We’d love to fit a dog or a cat into our routine, and we’re more than happy to organise overnight stays. We’re available weekdays and weekends.

Information Kathryn I. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know more about your pet, including if they have any additional needs or behaviour traits, what they enjoy doing in the day and the best way to bond with them.

A typical day

If you chose us, we’d spend the first few hours getting to know your pet, through playing with toys, treats and cuddles. We want any pet to feel comfortable with us and in our space, so we’d ensure that they can relax and get to know our surroundings. Once we’ve done this, we love to go on regular walks/runs and enjoy finding new places to explore around Bristol. We’d usually go on at least one long walk a day (sometimes more!) which can be tailored depending on the pet. For overnight stays, we’d stick to your feeding routine and night time routine. Pets can either sleep in our bed or in their own bed.

Enthusiastic animal lover

Pet care experience

Both myself and my partner have grown up around pets. We both enjoy building positive and loving relationships with the pets we look after and treat them as part of our family. We’ve cared for lots of different animals now (see pictures) and we’ve enjoyed every minute. We’re animal lovers and we’re often relied upon to look after family or friends pets, and love making memories or going on adventures with them. St George park and the river walk are a few minutes walk away and a great place to walk dogs. On overnight stays, the dogs can either sleep in their bed or in mine. We’re also happy to travel to pick up pets. We’ve got a car with covers that dogs can use. We’d love to be able to care for more animals so would love to hear from you!

Kathryn and Lewis looked after Rusty while we had a late night out and he looked relaxed and happy to see us the next day! Thanks again for looking after him at the last moment :)

Thank you to Kathryn and Lewis for taking Maisy and Scruff into your home for the day. I was a little apprehensive about leaving my little cocker spaniels with a sitter as this was their first time, but I didn’t need to worry. I was a little embarrassed when they started running around the house exploring, but it was obvious that they didn’t mind and had been used to other dogs doing the same thing. I would definitely ask Kathryn and Lou to take care of Maisy and Scruff again and would certainly recommend them to anyone.

Kathryn & Lewis walked my 2 dogs whilst I was on holiday and my elderly parents were dog sitting. The boys got excited everytime Lewis came to pick them up and he kindly put their leads on as they get quite excited when they go for their walks.i had daily updates and photos. I will definitely use Kathryn and Lewis again for dog walking and will make use of their other services they provide. Thanks Kathryn & Lewis.
