Pet care experience
Katie pawfect dog services :) - fully insured
Hi there! I'm a dedicated animal lover offering pet care services throughout Scotland. Whether it's house sitting, dog walking, or drop-in visits, I'm eager to travel and ensure your pets receive the best care possible. I'm currently studying Veterinary Bioscience at the University of Glasgow and work part-time at a doggy daycare, which keeps me engaged with various animal behaviors and needs. I've trained my own Cockapoo and German Shepherds, and I have hands-on experience working with chickens, lambs, and cows on my uncle's farm. I've also cared for a variety of pets, including a lovable yet anxious Border Collie named Summer and a poodle named Candy with specific dietary needs. I'm incredibly flexible with my schedule and can accommodate your pet's routine, ensuring their comfort or offering a new, engaging experience if you prefer. For house-sitting assignments, I'll be bringing my friendly dog, Indy, along. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your four-legged family members, give me a message.

Isla had a great day with Katie and is looking forward to going back.
Katie took fantastic care of Frankie while we were on holiday. She sent daily updates and took excellent care of him, making sure he was well exercised and happy!
Katie was great with my pup! Would definitely recommend
Katie was a fabulous pet sitter. My dogs adored their time with her and were very much part of the family while staying at her flat. She sent loads of videos and pictures which put my mind at ease and even took the dogs on a wee trip the beach which they loved. Will use again and definitely recommend. Thanks so much for loving my dogs ( maybe even more than I do ha )
Peggy loved her day with Katie!!!! Lots of updates as well which is nice to see your dog is happy ☺️
Katie was a brilliant sitter and looked after my pup just like her own. Lots of walks, cuddles and treats- Luna had the best time with Katie and Indy. Hope they get to hang out together again soon, would highly recommend Katie :)

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets, either in my home or the owner's, I prioritise their comfort and safety by tailoring my approach to their individual needs. With first aid training and veterinary practice experience, I can ensure their well-being and quickly address any health concerns. In my home, I provide a secure and engaging environment with plenty of play and rest, while maintaining their usual routine. In the owner's home, I adhere to their familiar schedule and surroundings, following detailed care instructions to ensure consistency in feeding, exercise, and medical needs. Throughout, I offer attentive companionship and regular updates/ pictures to the owner, ensuring each pet feels secure, loved, and in capable hands.

A typical day
I enjoy ensuring your dog gets the right balance of mental and physical stimulation. We'll begin with a relaxed sniff around the neighborhood and enjoy some thoughtful games at home, like sniff mats and treat-finding activities. Afterward, we’ll take a stroll to Kelvingrove Park, just a five-minute walk from my home, for a peaceful walk and some outdoor exploration.
