Loving, Reliable Care for Your Dog

Hi, I’m Katie! 💛 I’ve been dog-mad for as long as I can remember and have grown up with dogs all my life. Looking after them never feels like work to me – I genuinely love spending time with them and getting to know all their different personalities. Since starting on Rover, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for lots of lovely dogs, from bouncy puppies to older dogs who enjoy a quieter routine. Every dog is different, and that’s one of my favourite things about dog sitting. When I’m looking after your dog, they’ll get plenty of love, attention and company. I’ll follow their usual routine, make sure they get lots of walks and cuddles, and send regular photo updates so you can see what they’ve been getting up to while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone not only with your dog, but with your home too. I always treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own. My aim is always for your dog to feel safe, happy and completely at home, and for you to enjoy your time away knowing they’re being well looked after. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! ❤️

Doggy Day Care • Aug 04, 2026

Katie was fantastic from start to finish. She was a wonderful communicator, responding to messages promptly and keeping me updated throughout the day, which gave me real peace of mind. I was especially grateful that Katie was able to step in at short notice to look after my Flat-Coated Retriever. She is friendly, professional and immediately put me at ease, so I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. It was lovely to see the updates from his beautiful countryside walk in the hills – exactly the sort of adventure I know he loves. Knowing he was so well looked after allowed me to focus on what I needed to do without worrying. When he came home he was calm, relaxed and slept soundly, which is always the sign of a happy dog who’s had a brilliant day. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Katie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and trustworthy dog walker.

House Sitting • Jul 28, 2026

Lovely person but better suited to a simple position. Came home to my dogs sleeping in moldy vomit and dried urine on the floor.

House Sitting • Jul 03, 2026

I can’t recommend Katie highly enough, she is superb. She looked after our two Cavalier King Charles spaniels for a week in our home and not only did she take amazing care of them, but also our home. She sent frequent updates and it was easy to relax while we were away as it was clear from the photos and videos, that both of our pups were very happy and relaxed with her. It is clear from the first time we met, Katie has a genuine love of animals and our two instantly took to her. We would not hesitate to book with Katie again😊

Katie is a wonderful pet sitter and looked after my cats for me whilst I was away. She is a clear animal lover and goes the extra mile to ensure pets are well taken care of. My cats seemed very relaxed and happy after her time with them. I can recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow their normal routines, give them plenty of love and attention, and always keep you updated with photos and messages. I make sure every dog feels safe, happy and cared for like part of my family.

A typical day

I love to stick to your dogs routine as much as possible while including lots of affection, fun and walks along the way (including lots of updates for you).
