Pet care experience
Loving & Experienced Dog Sitter 🐾
I have grown up with dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I have cared for a range of breeds, including Maltipoos, Springer Spaniels, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Labradors, so I’m comfortable with both small and large dogs. I’ve also helped raise two litters of puppies - from early feeding and socialisation through to basic training, so I feel confident caring for puppies, adult dogs and seniors. I love being outdoors and regularly go on long walks, so dogs in my care will receive plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, always tailored to their individual needs and owners preferences. Training and structure are important to me. One of my dogs went on to work with the police, which reflects my experience with consistency, routine and positive reinforcement. I will treat every dog as if they were my own, providing a calm, safe and loving environment. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease while your dog is in my care.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
It’s important for me to know if your dog has any specific requirements, behaviours , or needs so I can provide the best care possible. I don't have a preference for breed or size and genuinely love all dogs, so feel free to get in touch🙂
Ratings and reviews
Katie is absolutely amazing. Oscar loved spending the day and night with her, she gave him lots of love and attention and we can’t wait to book in with her again❤️highly recommend xxx
Katie has looked after my little Dolly a few times now whilst I have been on holiday. She is very attentive and I always feel confident leaving Dolly with her. 10/10 would recommend Katie for anyone who is nervous on leaving a dog. You’re in safe hands.
Katie looked after my 2 cavaliers and she did an absolutely amazing Job. It was their first time staying away and I was quite nervous. She reassured me by sending lots of updates and amazing photos. 100% recommend!!!
Katie has been absolutely fantastic with my dog Bruce since we’ve started using her, she is very quickly becoming his best friend. After previous issues with other dog walkers, we decided to reach out to Katie through a family friend and it’s the best decision we have made. Bruce gets so excited when he sees her for his walks which says everything about the trust they have built. Katie also dog sat for the first time recently and it was so reassuring knowing Bruce was safe, happy and most importantly, looked after and this was due to regular updates and pictures. I could not recommend her more for anyone looking for a reliable and truly wonderful dog walker or dog sitter :)
I was recommended to Katie by a family friend before she started using Rover and I’m so glad to have found her. I’m not able to walk my excitable cockapoo as regularly as I’d like at the moment due to work commitments and Katie is able to assist with this. She was very approachable and accommodating to what I needed and we worked out a timetable which worked for us both. Katie is incredibly friendly and works so well with my Reggie boy. Katie is booked in to have him for a long weekend and I don’t know who’s more excited. Me or the dog!
A fantastic sitter! Katie looked after our home and 2 dogs for 3 nights and 4 days. The dogs were so well looked after with walks that suited their abilities and lots of care and attention. Will definitely use again🐾

Schedule
I predominantly work from home and have a flexible routine, which allows me to offer doggy day care, walks, and house sitting. I am happy to adapt to each pet’s usual routine, making sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for throughout the day. Your dog's day with me will be filled with plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention. Throughout the day, I'II make sure to provide a mix of mental stimulation with toys and games. I'm also happy to work on any training if needed, whether it's reinforcing basic commands or helping with specific behaviours. If your dog is more of a relaxer, we'll enjoy some quieter time, either inside or in the garden.
