Availability
I work part time, shift work in blocks of 3/4 hours as a Pilates instructor. I also do 1:1 at my home studio so I often have hours of the day spent at home working. I rarely have plans your dog couldn’t come with me to (temperament permitting) so if you’re happy for your pup to come to dinner at my mums with me, pop out for coffee with friends or do a few hours babysitting with my niece then they’d have an interesting week! I wake up early naturally and love walking 5-10k+ steps a day so it would not feel forced for a dog to join me.

Safety, trust & environment
I have half an acre of fenced garden though it’s not a fully secure blocked in fence. Behind it is miles of farmed fields. I used to let my dog out to wee and explore on her own even at night but I trusted she wasn’t leaving so if your dog has recall I will let them explore supervised, without recall will be on a longline lead preferred. No rooms are out of bounds though I would naturally prefer to keep a dog that isn’t trained to wee outside, off the carpet upstairs. Depending on the dogs walking requirements I would go in the morning and/or late afternoon/evening. I would prefer if the dog was happy to come out and about with me if I was caring for them for a day +, only due to preference I like to think the dogs had an interesting day exploring rather than being at home too much but it’s your call if you rather they stayed home.

Pet care experience
I’ve grown up in farms with a host of animals and pets but specifically I had my own dog she sadly passed in 2023 at the age of 14. I trained her from a puppy and cared for her in her old age so I can appreciate the care the differs between the ages of the pets. She was my whole life so while I’m not ready to have another pet of my own I have the time, resources and experience to help care for yours when you need it. I’ve also acted as a pet sitter for neighbours and friends.

Reviews
Katie has looked after my Cavapoo many times and I couldn’t recommend her more. She is great with her, very attentive and caring and super flexible when needed.
Katie looked after my dog for a number of years on and off. She is trustworthy and reliable and nothing was too much trouble. She definitely has an affinity with animals and babies and children as she also babysat for us on occasions. We totally trusted her.
