Pet care experience

Dog lover and veterinary student 🐶🐾💘

With a deep-rooted love for dogs and a wealth of experience in pet care, I am the ideal choice to look after your furry family member. My passion for canine companionship began at a young age as I grew up alongside a Border Collie and a Cockapoo, who taught me valuable lessons in understanding and caring for dogs. As a second-year veterinary student, I bring not only a profound love for animals but also a solid foundation in animal care and health. This education equips me with the knowledge to recognize signs of discomfort or distress, ensuring your pet's well-being during my care. I have also had the pleasure of walking dogs of various breeds, from the energetic Hungarian Vizslas to the gentle giants like Rottweilers. This diverse experience has honed my skills in managing different temperaments and energy levels, ensuring that each dog receives the individualized attention they need during their walks and playtime. Additionally, I've had the privilege of dog-sitting for a Hungarian Vizsla, so I understand the specific needs and characteristics of this breed, making me well-prepared to provide the same level of care to your beloved pet. Your dog's well-being, happiness, and safety are my top priorities, and I am dedicated to creating a positive and loving environment for them. Whether it's a leisurely stroll, an energetic play session, or simply some good old-fashioned cuddles, I'm here to make sure your dog feels right at home.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are paramount when it comes to pet care, and I take these aspects very seriously. In my home in Liverpool, there are no other pets, ensuring a peaceful and pet-friendly atmosphere for your dog. If you prefer, I can also provide dog-sitting services in your home, as I fully understand that dogs can find it daunting to be in unfamiliar surroundings. Rest assured, I am flexible and adaptable in my approach, and my primary goal is to create a secure and welcoming setting for your furry companion. Your dog's well-being and security are my top priorities. I am committed to maintaining a clean and safe environment and following any specific instructions or routines you have for your pet. Trust is the foundation of a positive pet-sitting experience, and I am dedicated to building that trust with both you and your beloved dog. Your peace of mind is as important to me as your dog's happiness, and I look forward to providing a loving and trustworthy atmosphere for your pet's well-being.

House Sitting • Mar 24, 2024

Katie was amazing. Sitting our somewhat nervous dog (and cat!) she put her at ease and kept giving us pupdates and we came home to a happy relaxed dog. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough, we will definitely be requesting her skills again! Thank you Katie!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 22, 2024

First time booking with Katie and I will definitely book in again with her! Very polite and quick to respond, which made the booking process smooth and easy. She understood Arlo’s anxiety and she instantly made him feel comfortable. All instructions regarding to Arlo and his usual day were followed and she kept him busy with a nice walk and cuddles. Thank you :) x

Katie was amazing. Will 100% be booking again. Took my booking at super short notice to take Bobbi overnight, came and collected her with her flat mate so they could manage bobbi’s crate etc. Just went over and above. Bobbi came back home knackered so I know she had a blast! Couldn’t thank Katie and her friend enough for helping me out at the last minute. sent updates whilst I was away too and Bobbi looked like she was super settled.

Schedule

I understand the importance of consistent care and companionship for your dog, and I'm here to ensure that they receive the attention and love they deserve. My schedule is exceptionally flexible, as I am available throughout the week, with the exception of a few hours dedicated to my university studies. Even during these hours, you can rest assured that I would not leave your pet unattended for an extended period. Given the nature of my second-year veterinary studies, a substantial portion of my coursework can be completed through online work. This flexibility enables me to offer dog-sitting services either at your home or mine, ensuring that your pet receives continuous care and engagement. Whether it's playtime, regular walks, feeding, or simply providing company, I am committed to tailoring my schedule to meet your dog's specific needs. Your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I'm here to make sure they are content, secure, and loved throughout the day.
