I live in East Belfast area at Stormont, I work in Holywood and have a car so I am able to travel.
I grew up with newfoundland dogs my whole life, growing up with giant breeds gave me a lot of experience in handling large dogs. I now currently have a house cat, a Siberian pedigree who is more like a dog than a cat. Owning my house cat has made me fall in love with cats just as much as dogs now. I would love a dog of my own but unfortunately my rental agreement does not allow this. This is why I would love to be a pet sitter. Interacting with other dogs and cats brings me so much joy and I love how different one breed is from the next. They all have their own unique characteristics. I have looked after family and friends dogs previously, both large and small, for many years now.

Katie was wonderful. My Bella is quite shy but she warmed to Katie very quickly. Bella was well taken care of and was a happy girl when we got home. Katie gave her lots of pets and brushes and playing with her toys. Katie sent us lots of pictures so we knew Bella was happy while we were away.
Bella can’t wait for Katie to look after her again .
Katie is great. Our cats were really well looked after. Can recommend Katie.
