Hard-working and devoted pet lover

Pet care experience

All walks will vary upon the dog - if they can't make long distances then only a short walk and longer walks for those with high energy. I like to get to know a dog I am looking after so any favourite toys please bring them and we can have some play time! I make sure all animals are treated as an individual so if they like cuddles or if they like space I can make sure that is available for them. Please let me know if there are any preferences and I can try my best to fulfil them. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I am an Animal Science graduate and am currently doing my Animal Biology top up at Nottingham Trent University with a particular interest in canine behaviour and have had dogs since I was 7 years old. I expanded into looking after other peoples pets when I was 12 and am still enjoying every second of it! I am currently living at home with my parents while in the 'in-between' stage of having just finished uni.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a secure, fenced garden and 2 dogs to keep your babies company, however I can crate or separate your dogs to make them feel more comfortable. Even though this is an option, if they do not get along with other dogs I would recommend staying at your property due to the layout of my house and personality of my 2 dogs.

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences - I love them all the same! Please let me know any dietary or training requirements, including if your dog is allowed off the lead. If the dog is aggressive please let me know and provide a muzzle if necessary.

A typical day

Every dog is treasted differently, so whether we sit and have cuddles all day, go for long walks or just play together, each animal is catered for their individual needs :)

I am currently working freelance, so have plenty of time to spend with your pets, and am potentially hoping to make this my full time job! I don't have a particular 'set schedule' at the moment so am pretty open and flexible. Unfortunately I don't drive but am usually good to get lifts or use public transport to get to you
