About Catherine
Hi! I’m Catherine, a lifelong animal lover and pet owner with a particular soft spot for cats, Rottweilers and larger breeds. 🐾
Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My family has had Rottweilers for over 12 years, so I’m very comfortable around large, strong dogs and have a lot of love for breeds that are sometimes unfairly labelled as “aggressive” or intimidating. I believe every animal deserves to be understood as an individual and cared for with patience, kindness and respect.
I currently have two very loved cats of my own, Mila and Nico, so I’m also very familiar with the many different personalities that come with cats, from confident and playful to shy and cautious. I’ve also recently become involved in fostering animals in need, which is something I’m very passionate about.
I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets when you go away, so my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible.
Home visits can include:
Feeding and fresh water
Cleaning and refreshing litter trays
Playtime, cuddles and companionship (on your pet’s terms!)
Dog walks where required
Basic medication where I’m comfortable and confident administering it
Photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is going
Bringing in mail or parcels and taking care of small things around the home while you’re away
I’m primarily available on weekends and am happy to care for both cats and dogs, including larger breeds. I’m also happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so you can introduce me to your pet, show me their routine and make sure you feel completely comfortable before leaving them in my care.
Whether your pet wants lots of attention and cuddles or prefers someone who will patiently give them their space, I’m happy to work around their personality and needs. ❤️
