Kind, Caring and reliable

40, Carer

Hi, I'm Katherine, I'm a 40 year old animal lover currently living in London, but also with a home in the North East of England.

I have for many years been a full time carer for a close family member, a job which I have loved every minute of.

I have been brought up around dogs,cats and horses, and have shared my life with a bouncy Beagle, a beautiful Dalmation, a Boxer, and many ponies.
Plus two cats, Tiger and Bramble.
I enjoy reading, baking and walking in my spare time, and love visiting family in Scotland.

I have previously worked as a groom, on a stud farm in Devon, that bred Coloured horses.

I'm quiet, reliable and trustworthy.
I will follow any routines you have already established for your animals, and provide regular images and updates for your piece of mind.

I am clean and tidy and will look after your home like my own.

I have an up to date DBS.

Now my caring responsibilities have sadly come to an end, I would love to see more of the UK and meet new people, so to combine this with looking after your pets would be a dream!

I do not currently have a driving licence, but I'm happy to use public transport as necessary and can travel throughout England and Scotland, often at short notice.

I am more than happy to have a telephone/Whatsapp video call
with yourselves beforehand if you would like.

I do not smoke or vape or drink alcohol.

Please do contact me if you think my profile may suit. 😊

Kind regards
Katherine

Katherine was great. Loads of communication beforehand. Barlow took to her immediately. She kept in touch throughout with updates on how he was doing. Happy contented dog on my return.

Katherine looked after our cat while we were away for the weekend, she stayed in touch, kept us up to date with excellent communication, and clearly was fond of our sweet girl Penelope. Our home was immaculate upon our return and most importantly, cat was happy and well cared for! We would absolutely recommend Katherine as a sitter and hope to see her again in future.

Katherine kindly took good care of our cats at short notice while we were away for 10 days. It was helpful to know that the cats were in safe hands and to have someone to look after the house. We appreciated it and would recommend Katherine to others.

We joined your site a few months ago and this was our first experience using a house/cat sitter. Katherine was fantastic!! After answering our advert we met on a WhatsApp video call and we liked her immediately. We kept in touch by text over a number of weeks until the date when she arrived. Our cat took to Katherine straight away which was lovely. She kept in touch while we were away and it was obvious that both cat and house had been well looked after when we arrived home. We were so ... MORE

I really enjoyed meeting Katherine over the phone a few weeks before the sit, followed by various messages to clarify details. During the sit Katherine kept me up to date with Suki's antics, which was appreciated. The flat was as tidy and clean as I'd left it! And Suki looked healthy and happy. Thank you, Katherine, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and spending time with Suki!
