Pet care experience
Trusted Pet Care with 7 Years of Experience!
I've cared for pets from a young age, including cats, dogs, chinchillas, hamsters, tortoises, fish, and even hedgehogs—quite the variety! While I love all animals, cats and dogs are my favorites. I have experience training puppies beyond my own, helping them learn commands, crate training (when desired), and proper house training. My own dog is allowed on the furniture and bed, but I fully respect each owner's preferences and always follow instructions to ensure the best care for both pets and their humans. I’m an active person, committed to hitting 10k steps a day, so dog walking fits perfectly into my routine—I truly enjoy it! (Poop scooping included.) I’ve worked with families that have multiple pets and have provided pet sitting both in my own home and at clients’ homes. I understand that every animal is unique and always provide personalized care tailored to their individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, pets have a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I have a secure, fenced garden for fresh air and exercise, and a crate available if needed. My own dog is friendly and happy to provide company, but if a pet prefers to be the only one around, I can easily arrange for my dog to stay with my mum or sister. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the owner’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddles, I ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I also keep things tidy and make sure they have everything they need while their owner is away.
Ratings and reviews
Katie was able to take care of our Sully at such short notice, he clearly had a great time because he spent more time next to her when I'd come home haha! Very much appreciated the updates throughout the day and as a person, Katie is wonderful. Thank you again!
Katie looked after my springer spaniel Smooches for 5 nights & done a fabulous job at keeping us updated with picture & videos. She walked her each day & Smooches looked right at home from the beginning - snuggled on the sofa & playing with toys. House was clean & safe. Would definitely use Katie again. Thank you!

Schedule
Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine! I work from home for myself, so I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and care throughout the day. I also have a car, making transport easy when needed. With no children in my home and support from my mum and sister, my own pet can be out of the house if required, ensuring a comfortable environment for any pet in my care.
