Katie

“Hey pooches and their owner’s”, I am Kate, I am 40, i’m married and have recently given up my long term car industry job to care full time for doggies :-) Being only 1 minute walk from the Lickey Hills, there are several beautiful walks around our house, so we are very fortunate to live in such a lovely environment that dogs just love. You are welcome to come to mine with your dog prior to the booking date so you can see where he/she will be and put your mind at rest your pooch is happy! :)

There’s a safe garden to play and he/she will get lots of doggy time with me. I will be 100% devoted and will go above and beyond a normal dog walker-sitter to make sure your dog has the best love, care and attention he/she can get.

This is more than a job for me, it’s a lifestyle. My final decision in doing it as a job was when we put my sisters dog into kennels for the week, he was that traumatised and had eaten his paw all week and injured his foot, we said, never again! But I realised that trust was the biggest thing that people worry about and so I wanted to be that go to person that owners can rely on and feel totally happy to leave their dogs with me. I have been looking after dogs as a hobby now for 20 years, including puppies and older dogs, so a varied mix.

I offer dog walking & bath time in both my daycare and dog boarding. I will also do home visits in my area and it’s surroundings. Dog walks can be anything from half and hour to 2 hours depending on your dog, but generally an hour. We have a safe all fenced garden if your dog is staying with us. It’s just myself and my husband, who also adores dogs and loves playtime’s, he is still a kid himself at heart :-)
