Hi, I'm Kate
(BA HONS QTS)
Dog Listener, Dog Walking and Home Boarding

 

Me%20and%20teddy_edited.jpg

Dogs have always featured strongly in my life. I grew up with dogs as pets, and throughout my adult life, I have owned and have experience of many different breeds, including rescue dogs. It has become clear to me that our lives are enriched by the companionship of our pets; the saying  ‘dog is a man’s best friend’ has been well proven. 

 

I resigned as an Assistant Head at a secondary school to retrain as a dog behaviour specialist and pursue my dream of opening my own business working with dogs and their owners. In addition to my dog walking, dog listening and boarding business, I am keen to take my work into schools. Throughout my teaching career, I have been interested in the emotional health and wellbeing of young people.

I believe that, based on a relationship of mutual respect, the unconditional love that dogs give us could also help young people with mental health, anxiety and confidence issues. I intend to develop this business to combine my love of working with children and dogs on a therapeutic basis.  Watch this space for more details!

​

I pride myself on being organised, approachable and having an enthusiastic and positive approach to life. I am fully committed to helping clients to look after their pets whilst also guiding and enabling people to have the happiest life possible with their dogs

I have lived with a family dog most of my life whilst growing up.  I enjoy their company and individual personalities, and cherished their companionship.

 

My previous roles include 15 years experience of working in early years as a nursery nurse and four years of walking and boarding dogs.

​

 I am excited to be part of Kate's K9's offering walking and boarding services. I love providing a home from home experience taking care of your precious dogs.

​

I pride myself in being reliable, trustworthy and I have a professional  friendly manner. Kate has taught me about Dog Listening and I approach each dog in my care using this amazing method that truly works. 

​

I have a DBS,  Level 2 VTQ in Pet First Aid and CPR and I have  obtain dog boarding licence and insurance as a franchisee under Kate's K9s.

 

I look forward to meeting you and your doggies.

Since a young girl I have always had a real passion for animals especially dogs. I thoroughly enjoy lovely long walks with my own dog Jack and I am so really looking forward to building relationships with your dogs too. There is nothing better than watching a group of dogs playing and enjoying a good walk.

 

My previous roles include being a nanny and personal assistant to two wonderful families in London for 10 years and I am also a qualified hair dresser.

 

I am an energetic and enthusiastic person who enjoys a challenge and achieving personal goals. I have excellent communicate skills, time keeping and a hardworking person and I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends.

Hi, I'm Joyce
Dog Walking and Home Boarding

I love animals, especially dogs and having a British & South American heritage. I had the privilege of having experience with Ocelots (wild cats) and monkeys while in Brazil. During my time living in the UK I have owned and have experience of caring for dogs, rabbits, hamsters. I also have some farm experience working with cows, but that's a whole other story!

​

My previous roles include over 10 years experience in teaching and project management and being a mum to my three wonderful boys.

​

I have a DBS and level 2 Pet First Aid and CPR.

I have an active family life and it would be a pleasure to share it with your doggies in our home from home boarding experience. My aim is to make your dog feel part of the family during their stay with us. 

 

 I'm very excited in being a part of Kate's k9's and look forward in meeting you and your lovely furry friends.

Hi, I'm Gwen
Pet Sitting

I am Emma's daughter and currently studying alongside pet sitting.

​

I really enjoy pet sitting for Kate's K9's and being around animals, especially dogs.

​

My Mum has been boarding dogs at our family home for 4 years now so I feel really confident caring for dogs and understanding their different personalities and needs. 

 

I have been dog sitting in peoples homes independently and through Kate's K9's for a year now and I love it!  

 

If pet sitting is an option for you, i would love to meet you and your furry friend.

Hi, I'm Carys
Home Boarding 

I have always loved dogs: they have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

There is nothing that beats the feeling of walking with your furry friend along an empty field or snuggling up in an evening on the couch.

​

I don't currently have a dog of my own but plenty of space so that means I am able to board dogs that would benefit from one to one attention or a more peaceful environment without distractions.

​

I'm excited to be part of Kate's team and am really looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful dog.
