My name is Kate, and I am a 24 year old artist from Kilkenny, living in Dublin's city centre. I am a graduate of Trinity College and have been living in the city for 5 years now. Unfortunatley, my house is not pet-friendly right now, so my services range from dog walking, pet sitting and over night stays if you need to go away!
I grew up around animals and to this day have a huge love for them. I was surrounded by a variety of animals; jack russel terriers, grey hounds, lurchers, cats, pigeons, ferrets, hamsters and farm animals. My most memorable and closest companion was my dog Elsie, a basset hound, who I had throughout my teenage years and loved dearly.
I have always felt, and been told, that I have a good knack with animals. I am more than comfortable around them, particularly dogs, and I am often my happiness when with pets! My experience with a variety of breeds, from german shepards to smaller terriers, makes me a suitable dog walker and pet sitter for you and your companion.
My experience in any sort of minding falls in childcare. I have child-minded since I was a teenager, including minding children as young as 14 months, and the skills required of this role apply very well to pet sitting. A lot of the families I child-minded for happened to have cats as pets, so I am also more than comfortable around them also!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Basil was so relaxed with Kate, to the extent that when she left, he followed her out the door......would highly recommend.
Thank you Kate for taking great care of Mackerel and keeping us updated! Would recommend!
