I am an older woman, (I really should be retired by now, but that hasnt happened yet!) I have grown up with dogs my whole life, there has not been a period in my life where i have not had a dog. I have had breeds from Chihuahuas to St Bernards. Actually had the Chihuahua and the Saint at the same time - Tiffany the Chihuahua ruled the household!! I have had two babies (Billy & Macey) for the last 17 - 14 years. Sadly last year I had to put Macey to rest due to cancer. It was the hardest thing Billy and I have ever had to do. Billy is almost 17years old and loves the company of other dogs, as naturally he is missing Macey terribly. I work fulltime, (hoping to change that in the not too distant future) and hate leaving him home but he does sleep pretty much all day now unless he has company!
I am able to give your baby my full attention in the morning/evenings and weekends, however i am more than happy to have them during the week as they would be in a fully fenced yard and have easy access to inside. I only work 5 mins from home so am always able to come and check on them during the day, having said that I do occasionally work from home.
Walking would be every morning and night for at least 1/2hr and am happy to administer any medications. (Billy is on heart meds so i am experineced in doing that.) I will only have 1 dog (apart from Billy) at a time so you can be assured my love for them will always go their way.
I live alone, Billy shares my bed and I am more than happy to have extra company! If they are not inside dogs then they have an undercover area for them outside, as well as a small yard. Larger dogs may not find it enough room, however it is plenty big enough for a small breed.
As stated before, I am always home on a weekend at which time your baby would have my full attention, lots of walks and cuddles. Once again, I am quite happy to have he/she during the week if that suits as well.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.

Alfie had a great time, thank you :)
We left our beautiful puppy Bonnie with Kathryn for 12 days while we took a trip overseas. Kathryn was incredible, she took great care of Bonnie, and she loved being there. Kathryn was very helpful and accommodating when it came to our specific timing for drop off and pick up needs and nothing was too hard for her. He house was lovely with a nice outdoor area for our pup to play. Kathryn sent me regular updates and photos of our pup while we were away, to keep us up to date and help us not miss her too much. We will definitely use Kathryn's service again if we are travelling, or just for doggy daycare. Kathryn is a delight and we are so grateful we met her.
