About Katrina

Hi there fellow Animal Lovers!

My name is Kat, I have spent many years travelling the world and photographing wildlife in their natural habitat. I am a huge animal lover and enjoy educating people about all animals and animals about people ;). 

I recently completed my Wildlife Rehabilitation and Release Certificate and Advanced Cat Training and Behaviour Certificate. My experience with animals has spanned over 4 decades as my family was not short of animals growing up. 

I have also volunteered with Animal organizations such as;

  • Wildlife SOS in India working with Elephants and Sloth Bears. 
  • Snow Leopard Conservatory Trust in the Himalayas. 
  • Rare Species Conservatory in Florida working with Tamarinds, Pigmy Marmosets and endangered Bird Species.
  • RSPCA fostering Cats and Kittens with behavioural issues.
  • I have experience administering medication and working with animals that have behavioural issues. I am not limited to dogs or cats. I love ALL animals and happy to take the best of care of your fur babies. 

    My prefernce is to do home visits for your pets and take your dog(s) (or other animals) for a walk! Play with your cats etc. As your house is your private castle I am more than happy to have background checks done and submit references etc. Feel free to reach out if your feel I am a suitable match for your family. Happy to travel outside my postcode to help :)

    So happy to have found Katrina as a sitter! She was an absolute superstar looking after my cat who can be very hit and miss with meeting new people.

    Katrina looked after our 2 dogs while we were on holidays. We found Katrina to be very reliable, trustworthy and super caring towards our dogs. She came everyday at the same time as planned and took the relief of worrying about our dogs away. We would happily hire Katrina to look after our pets again.
