Permanent Homeworker who loves a fury friend.

Pet care experience

I've always loved dogs and I will care for your dog as if it was my own! I've grown up with dogs my whole life. I grew up with two springer spaniels at home and my parents in law/Tim's parents have two black labradors, my sister also owns a Pomeranian. We recently moved to St.Albans in March and bought a house! However, I'm very much missing having a fury friend. I've had plenty experience of dogs growing up and looking after my parents in laws dogs when they are away. We have a small garden, which dogs love to run around in. I have experience of looking after dogs all sizes, all ages and dogs on heat! I'm a permanent home worker, which means I can look after dogs in the week and take them out at lunch time. I always have an hour for lunch and because I have a small garden, I can let the dogs into the garden for toilet breaks and for zoomies regularly. At the back of the house we have shared access, behind that we have a garden which is fenced, however the fence into the garden isn't that high so if your dog likes jumping then please let me know. I also allow dogs on my furniture (if that's ok with you), as I love cuddles on the sofa ☺️

Casper had a great time with Katie and Tim while we were away for 8 nights . He seems to have really enjoyed city life in St Albans and lots of walks .

Katie took amazing care of our cocker spaniel, Barley, like he was one of her own! It was really reassuring to see how comfortable and relaxed Katie was with Barley from the start which meant Barley was too! Regular updates and photos were great - Barley and Katie clearly had a wonderful day together and we had a happy dog at the end of the day. Would not hesitate to use again - highly recommended. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our boy!

A happy stay for our Norfolk Terrier. Katie is very professional and caring. Lots of great communication and photos while we were away. Walks and one to one care. Will definitely use Katie again.

Katie couldn’t have been a better sitter for Pickle. Really good comms throughout and Pickle has been extremely well cared for. She has come back very relaxed and happy. We couldn’t have asked for more! Jason & Amanda

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs that I can account for. It would also be useful to know if they like jumping as our fences aren't that high. Please let me know your dogs sleeping arrangements as I do not allow dogs to sleep on my bed or in our bedroom.
