Helping dogs feel at home away 🐶
Hi, I’m Katie 👋 and I provide calm, home-based boarding and daycare for your pup. Many of the dogs I look after are staying away from home for the first time, so I focus on helping them settle in gradually with a consistent routine, plenty of reassurance, and regular updates for you. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day for company, toilet breaks, and play. I also have a secure, fenced garden where your pup can safely enjoy outdoor time between walks and snoozes. I’m an active person and enjoy long walks, so if your dog loves exercise they’ll get plenty of it. Equally, if they prefer a quieter routine with cuddles and downtime, I adapt fully to their usual habits. I regularly care for small companion breeds such as Cavapoos and Cockapoos, and I understand the importance of helping sensitive or closely bonded dogs feel secure when they’re away from home. You’ll receive regular photo and message updates while your dog is with me, so you always know how they’re settling and what their day looks like.

Ratings and reviews
Katie looked after Wilfy so well and she obviously knew a lot about dogs . I was initially nervous about booking anyone to look after him as he had never been with anyone else for a day and was still young but within a few seconds of meeting Katie i felt confident and was kept updated throughout the day.He came back happy and content.We will be booking Katie from now on and know our pup will have a great day
A great experience from start to finish. We had never left our pup with anyone before so we're a little nervous, however from the offset Katie was great. She responded quickly to all messages, agreed to take a short walk with the dog first to introduce him to a new house, looked after him well especially as this was during the heatwave. She kept us updated with photos and as such we were very pleased. We'll have the dog back to stay in no time!
Chewie loved his stay with Katie. It was clear Katie was very confident with him, and he immediately seemed chilled and at home. Katie was great with communication before and during Chewie’s stay and we will definitely look to use her for dog-sitting again. Thank you 😊
Katie was amazing looking after Hector, sent updates through the day and was always very prompt replying to messages!
Would highly recommend Katie if you're in need of someone trustworthy, caring and kind to watch over your fur baby/babies. Katie has had our two cavapoos for a weekend (overnight) and I know they felt at home - my two absolutely adore her!
Katie is a truly caring, responsible, and trustworthy pet caregiver. She looked after our dog with so much love and attention, and it was clear from the start how experienced and natural she is with animals. We received lovely updates and knew our pet was happy, safe, and very well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone reliable and genuinely loving to care for their pets.

Schedule
I work from home most days a week with a flexible schedule for your furry friends to slot into. I'm a keen runner so your pooch can expect lots of long walks and cuddles.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced, secure garden with grass for your dog to run around. I have a flexible schedule so I can take your dogs needs into consideration when they're staying with me (early risers, sofa cuddlers, prefer a quiet environment).
A typical day
I want to make sure your pet feel settled, so we'll look at what routine will work best while you're away. Lots of walks, stimulation and snoozes.
