About: I am a genuine dog lover and a pet parent myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable, kind and patient to look after your pets. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs day to day, including feeding routines, walks, toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles, basic grooming care and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I currently care for my own dogs, including a larger energetic dog and a smaller companion dog, so I am comfortable with different sizes, temperaments and routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, likes, dislikes and boundaries, and I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely. What sets me apart is that I treat pets like family. I am patient, gentle and attentive, and I will make sure your dog receives plenty of care, affection and reassurance while you are away. I can help with regular walks, feeding, playtime, companionship and keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I am also happy to provide updates, photos and messages so you feel reassured while your pet is with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already care for my own dogs every day. I am used to regular feeding times, morning and evening walks, toilet breaks, playtime and keeping dogs settled throughout the day. I have a flexible routine, so I can plan walks, visits or care around each pet’s normal schedule. I understand that consistency is important for pets, so I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep their routine as familiar as possible. I care for pets with patience, attention and respect for their individual needs. Whether I am looking after a pet in my home or in the owner’s home, I make sure they feel safe, calm and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication if required, toilet routines, sleeping arrangements and any house rules. I keep pets supervised, avoid unsafe situations, and take care when opening doors, walking near roads or introducing them to unfamiliar places. In my home, pets will be treated like family in a clean, caring and comfortable environment. I also understand that some pets may feel nervous when away from their owners, so I give them time, reassurance and gentle attention. I am happy to send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident that their pet is safe and well cared for.
About: Hi, I’m Kaylee, an experienced and reliable pet sitter with over 17 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs. I specialise in house sitting and drop-in visits in your home, so your pets can stay relaxed in their familiar environment while you’re away. I do not offer boarding, and all care is provided in your home.

I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, and I always follow your routines closely — including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific care requirements.

I am available most days and can be flexible depending on your needs. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing calm, reliable, and attentive care at all times. Looking forward to meeting you and your lovely pets 🐾 I’m also experienced in caring for small animals and reptiles, including geckos, snakes, and hamsters.

About: A work from home companion for your dog. I have had dogs for over 10 years now, with experience of different sizes and breeds! Alongside this, I have experience admitting medication. I have 2 loveable fluff balls, Henry (Labradoodle) and Winnie (Golden retriever). They love adventures of all kinds, whether this be exploring in the woods just over the road from the house, swimming in the sea or a charge about in a private field. Alongside the beautiful doggy’s I live with my partner Ant (who works in London) and young daughter. Ant occasionally joins us on walks but all dog care would be undertaken by myself. Your dog would be treated exactly the same, a home from home with cuddles on the sofa and a large garden for playtime. I work from home full time so your dog will have constant access to outdoor space. Weekends revolve around the dogs, trips to the park etc. The longest your dog would be left is 2 hours. Alternatively, if they are happy in places like town, we are also happy to take them with us when we go for coffee. I have a large fenced garden and 2 fur babies for your dog to play with. Alongside walks at the field, we regularly go to private fields for a run off leash. If you prefer your dog to be crated at night, also absolutely fine!
About: I grew up in a busy household with a Border Collie mix and a Jack Russell, so I’m no stranger to high energy and big personalities! Today, I’m a proud 'sausage mum' to two miniature (well, 'in betweenie' size) dachshunds. I offer dedicated drop-in visits and walks throughout Swale, tailored entirely to your routine. Living in Swale with a flexible work from home schedule means I am available throughout the day and evening to give your dog the attention they deserve - I also drive so distance is not a problem! Having pet sat for family for years, I understand that every dog is an individual. Whether your pup is a high energy explorer or a shy snuggler, I adapt my approach to their specific temperament. I prioritise safety above all else; For your peace of mind, all walks are conducted strictly on lead and are exclusive to your household, ensuring my full focus is always on your best friend. Because I and my partner work from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to be there for your dog exactly when they need me. Whether it’s a mid-morning stretch, a lunch break stroll, or an evening check-in, I can easily work around your routin - I am available throughout the day and into the evening across Swale and the surrounding areas as I have my own car. My priority is providing consistent, reliable care so you can go about your day knowing your pup isn’t waiting by the door alone. Safety is at the heart of every visit. Growing up with high-energy breeds like Border Collies and Jack Russells taught me the importance of vigilance and control. For your peace of mind, all walks are conducted strictly on-lead and are exclusive to your household; I don’t do 'pack walks,' so your dog has my undivided attention. Whether I'm visiting your home for a drop-in or exploring the local area, I adapt to your dog’s specific temperament and triggers. I treat every dog with the same care and caution I give my own two dachshunds, ensuring they return home happy, tired, and safe.

I’m a full-time teacher, which means I’m available for walks and drop-ins after school hours during term time. During half terms and school holidays, I have much more flexibility and can offer daytime care, extended visits, and more availability overall. I always aim to work around your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“Kathryn came and did a ‘getting to know you’ walk with our dog Tilly prior to sitting her the following week. I am very happy to be leaving Kathryn to look after our pets. She was great with Tilly and followed our advice on how to handle her.”
