Professional Dog Walking and Sitting Services 🐶🐾

Hi, I’m Katie - I am a PhD student and athlete, who is very passionate and experienced with dogs. I enjoy being outside and keeping active, and would be thrilled to take your dog for walks, and give them attention they deserve! Small/medium sized dogs, and puppies are my expertise, but dogs of all age and sizes are more than welcomed. I understand how special your furry friend is to you, and I will treat your pet as my own and give it all the love, care and attention they need! The 2 puppers featured in my profile currently live at my parents’, so won’t be with me when I’m caring for your fur babies. You’ll receive plenty of pupdates from myself during our time together, and I look forward to getting to know you and your lovely pets!

Katie was truly fantastic from the start of conversations, to the way she met us and the way she cared for Millie. Millie’s a nervy dog with mega separation anxiety but Katie clearly handled this with aplomb and managed to keep her happy all day long, m which is a real feat! Katie went out of her way to keep in touch, sending lovely photos and reassuring me all the way. You won’t find a more lovely girl to watch your dogs. Someone you can really trust your most special friend too. If I could give 100 stars, I would. Thanks again Katie.

Katie was absolutely amazing! We feel so lucky to have met Katie through Rover. She did a great job of looking after our 7 month old puppy husky. Very punctual with great communication throughout the whole process. She provided lots of love, fun and walks, whilst keeping us up to date with plenty of pictures. Burleigh loved Katie look after him! We can’t thank Katie enough for everything! We STRONGLY recommend!!!

I can’t recommend Katie enough! She stepped in short notice to walk my bulldog three times this week and was absolutely fantastic! She was reliable, caring and went above and beyond!! She sent lovely pictures of him smiling and having a great time along with detailed updates after each walk. My pup clearly had the best time. She even extended one of the walks because the weather was so nice, which was such a nice touch!!! I would definitely book again and couldn’t recommend enough! Thank you so much!!!!

What a wonderful, kind and friendly person Katie is. Excellent communication from my initial enquiry, to meet up arrangements, reassuring me with photos and messages whilst caring for him, to pick up. I was a bit apprehensive as I have never used this app or left him with a stranger before, but Zuko and I felt immediately at ease with Katie and he went off with her , without even looking back to me!! In the 4 hours she cared for him, she took him on 2 walks, fed him, let him snooze and also engaged in an enrichment activity/ toy that I had sent with him. So I'm confident he had a fabulous time! Highly recommend Katie.

Thank you Katie for looking after Jude. It was my first time of leaving him but Jude was so well looked after i don’t think he had time to miss me as he seemed very taken with Katie. Katie kept me updated about Jude and sent me photos and I felt like i could enjoy my weekend and not have to worry about him. I will definately use Katie again Thank you again 😊🥰
