Pet care experience

Dog Lover Providing Cuddles, Exercise and Fun!

I am a dog lover who has owned Cairn Terriers and Shih Tzus. I love taking dogs for fun walks and cuddling with them in the evening. My partner and I are used to handling both small and large dogs with my partner having parents with Rhodesian Ridgebacks. My partner and I have experience in overnight dog sitting and walking from 8-week-old puppies to older dogs who need extra care.

We had a fabulous experience with Katie! we boarded our 4month-old westie puppy girl with Katie for 3nights, from pre-met you’ll get the sense that they love dogs, they went above and beyond for both lemon and us, including pick up and drop offs, daily pictures, videos and frequent updates. We’ll definitely be using Katie again for peace of mind and great care.

Katherine is an amazing dog sitter. She showed so much kindness and care, kept me updated with messages and photos, and Charlie and Nancy loved their time with her. Highly recommend!

Katherine was brilliant looking after Charlie and Nancy! She communicated clearly and consistently, which gave me peace of mind. She wasn’t fazed at all by the extra commitment that comes with a puppy! Katherine is really friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her.

Katie was such a fantastic Pet sitter for Valerie! Despite Valarie's strength on the lead, she was still happy to walk her. It was comforting to know Valerie (a excitable puppy Labrador) was happy and well cared for, Valerie was able to settle quickly in Katie's care. We were incredibly grateful that Katie could look after Val and was able to easily contact eachother for updates or to answer any queries. This meant we was able to enjoy our time away, worry-free, knowing Val was in safe capable hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I will ask for and learn your dog’s routine, ensuring they are as comfortable as possible in my care. I will adapt walk and play to your dog’s needs and preferences.

A typical day

I love to keep your dog entertained, both mentally and physically. We will explore new smells on walks and meet new animal friends (if you and your dog are comfortable with this). We will have lots of fun playing with toys and will relax with some cuddles.
