Katie

A little bit about me: Hi my name is Katie, I'm an all round animal lover! I'm a vegetarian for the past 10 years as I am so strongly against the abuse of animals. Growing up I have had many pets in my family home. We have had dogs, cats, lizards and Guinea pigs! I am a friendly, active and gentle person, who would love to meet all the little fur babies of Pawshake. Available to attend your cats, dogs, fish, reptiles etc for some food, fun and play! 🐾

I have a little black and white cat that I rescued from the animal shelter when he was only a few weeks old, called Alfie. 🐈‍⬛I frequently spend time with my best friends autism assistance dog and her cats. I also look after my friends and families pets while they're on holidays, this involves feeding, walking, playing and changing litter etc. I have also helped raise funds for my local animal shelter in the past. 💰I intend on volunteering there during the summer months this year. I recently came across west cork animal shelter where you can visit the animals and take the lovely little doggies for walks around the scenic area, which has become a hobby of mine. If I could rescue each and every one of them I would!!

Home Visits 🏡: I am available for home visits both once and twice a day, where I can play, cuddle and clean up after your pets. My home visiting hours are super flexible as I am currently on maternity leave. I have my own means of transport in my car. I can send frequent pictures, videos and updates to the owner to let them know how their little baby is getting on.

*All food, toys, cleaning equipment etc must be provided by the owner*

Dogs: At my home visit to your doggy, I can leave them outside to go to the toilet, play with them, feed them, give them fresh water, have cuddles and clean up after them. Walking is also part of my home visit if requested. I can take your dog on an hour long walk where we can walk and play. All leads, harnesses, balls, toys etc must be provided by the owner.

Cats: At my home visit to your cat, I can leave them outside to go to the toilet, play with them, feed them , give them fresh water, change their litter, have cuddles etc. All toys, catnip etc must be provided by the owner.

Fish/Lizards/Reptiles/Rabbits/Guinea Pigs etc 🐠🐰🦎: At my home visit to your pet, I can feed them, clean out their cages or tanks, play with them etc. All animals are accepted.

Doggy Day Care 🎾🐾 : I can visit your pet and spend 5 hours with them during the day. During my time there in your home, I will play with, feed, cuddle and clean up after your pet. I will send photos and videos to update you. I will leave your pet out to the bathroom/clean their litter tray/tank. I can also walk your dog, water plants, bring out bins etc if requested.

Walks🐶🐱: I can collect your pet from their home and drop them home in my car after their walk. I can use pet friendly seat belts where provided by the owner. I like to bring the pets I'm minding on a walk to somewhere like the Regional Park in Ballincollig, or Tramore Valley Park where they can get out for a half an hour long walk and to play. I can also go on local walks around the pet's area. All leads and harnesses etc must be provided by the owner.

*If requested I can do longer walks, message me to discuss this.

Feel free to message me with any enquiries you might have. I try to reply as fast as possible! I am also available to take phone calls and to meet with the owner and pets prior to the booking to get to know both the owner and the pets and for them to get to know me!🌻
