Pet care experience

You’re in good paws with me!

I’m hear because I LOVE animals. I’m also very experienced with handling reactive dogs, however, I have a dog and need to ensure our dogs will get along. I have gone through many training classes and learnt valuable skills, from reading body language, to tips on keeping an up beat and patient attitude no matter what situation you find yourself in! I’ll train and play with your dog. We can go on some adventures if you’re okay with it. I’m cautious, caring and always make time for loving animals and baking healthy treats for my pup. I’d be happy to help with anything, from a simple walk and play, to desensitizing fears and anxieties! I love helping animals, and I genuinely just have a lot of love to give! Hope to hear from you! Katie

House Sitting • Sep 01, 2025

Katie looked after our house and animals, and we were delighted. The cat and dog were taken care of as per our instructions, and some extra attention given to them when needed. Katie was great communicating, and we would book her again.

We had great experience with Katie. She was very understanding of our need for little yorkie. She took him out for his walks and kept with his normal sleeping habits. Gave us great updates. Not too many and not too little. You should have no worries leaving your pet with Katie.

Katie was great with our Roscoe. It was a 1 night trial to see how Roscoe would adjust to the new environment before a longer stay. While Roscoe was missing him family, Katie took nothing but great care of him and gave me updates throughout the day with how he was doing. Highly recommend

Knowing your dog helps me plan and provide excitement and fun! Anything that can help gain trust and understanding helps. If your dog has fears, allergies or general discomfort in any area is like to know! This helps your dog remain happy and eager to come back next time!
