I’m here to welcome your fur babies into my home

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with 3 large dogs from age 5 to 22. 6 years ago we decided as a family to get our own dog - Tilly. We had her from a puppy so I’m used to puppy care and training. Tilly has a friend who I walk with regularly and often look after her for the day or overnight. I walk her everyday on the meadows local to us and I work from home so any dog will never be left alone for longer than an hour.

Belle had such a a good time. She's very much a people dog and dislikes being on her own and Kathryn was the perfect host for her, lots of cuddles, lots of walks and lots of love. Thank you for taking such good care of her xx Highly recommended.

Bailey had a great 9-night stay with Kathryn, who looked after him with care and kept us well updated during our trip.

Kathryn was lovely from the start. Offered an initial meet and greet, which was lovely, ahead of a full day care day. Communication was great and Kathryn kept me updated through the day. I had one very happy and tired boy at the end. Would definitely recommend Kathryn and will definitely book her again. Thank you Kathryn 😊

Dougie loved his holiday with Kathryn and family, this was his first proper time away from us and couldn’t have picked a better sitter for Dougie. Kept informed everyday of his activities and plenty of videos and pictures as well , would recommend Kathryn and family to anyone looking for somewhere safe and loving for your dog. Tom 🙂

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced garden and a secure gate so your pups will be very secure. I have my own fur baby called Tilly who is very friendly with all dogs (she’s a big softy and very spoilt). I walk her everyday and she gets lots of time off the lead, if your dog would also require that. We’re not shy to sharing our furniture or beds with dogs if needed, as that’s what we’re used to.

A typical day

I take my dog for an hour long walk everyday on our local meadows, where she has plenty of time off the lead and lots of stimulation. Your dog will be welcomed into a loving home and will receive plenty of fuss and play time.
