The quick version is that, Kate is an amazing person and a saviour for our dog family.
We originally found a dog sitter on tailster that we weren't sure about, but the only option had we until when Kate reached out to offer dog walking at our home.
When Kate met Geordie, the two hit it off straight away, she took the time to understand our wants and needs. More importantly, she took the time to understand our patterpoo.
Now, Geordie gets excited on walking days until Kate arrives.
As customers, we are a pain due to moving rosters, but Kate has always been flexible and helpful in any situation we find ourselves in.
Don't know what we would do without her.

Kate provides a 10/10 service. I cannot recommend her enough, our doggies love Kate, she’s a dog whisperer as our dachshund doesn’t normally take to anyone.
I appreciate all the doggie updates whilst I’m at work, it’s my favourite time of day knowing they’re being cared for.
Thank you Kate for being so professional and caring.

Kate has been amazing in all ways with taking care of my pet and going beyond. Very reliable and trustworthy, I’d fully recommend her.

Kate came recommended to us several months ago and I would just like to say, she is 'worth her weight in gold'. Kate is a lovely person with a caring personality. She runs a very professional business and is both reliable and trustworthy. Nothing is too much trouble and Kate will help in any way she can. We get photo updates of Zico whilst he's out on his walks accompanied by humourous messages. It is clear that Kate obviously enjoys her job as much as our lharsa enjoys seeing her. Debbie & Jon

I discovered Kate at a wedding fair offering dog chaperoning. When I discovered she also did 1:1 dog walks and was very local to me I did not hesitate to get in touch about both.
We've been using Kate now for a couple of months and I have to say I have no regrets. Kate is wonderful and attentive.
Our pooch is a sensitive and anxious soul who hates roads and has had a bad experience with children, making him not too keen on them. In the few months he has had with Kate he has grown in confidence. He loves to play football with Kate's young son and we have seen an improvement in his anxiety. I would recommend Kate to anyone and everyone!

We highly recommend Kate @bowtifulbykate
From the first consultation she was friendly punctual and attentive !
She finds out about your individual pets needs , listens to your requests and worries and re assures you that she will take care of your furry friend ( or friends in this case as she also looks after our cat Smudge) !
She is fully insured DBS checked and has pet first aid training !
Everything is professional and well organised she will keep you updated on her visit with messages and pictures to reassure you ( which to us is so important as it means we can enjoy our time away from our pets knowing they are happy and well looked after) !
The bonus is that Charley absolutely loves her and gets excited when she knows Kate is coming !
Thanks Kate we can’t wait to carry on booking you for our babies !

Kate is absolutely fantastic . I have recently moved back to the area after 9 years away and live alone with my yorkie and work full time therefore need assistance with drop ins and any over night stays .
I found Kate online and she came to visit and we connected instantly . She is absolutely lovely and she certainly has a way with dogs. Bobby adores her .
Kate does regular weekly drop in visits and it gives me such peace of mind when I'm on the road as she is fantastic with Bobby . She walks him and spends time with him and comes back again later. I get piccy updates which are amazing and reassuring although I fully trust Kate. Hes in good hands .
Kate also has helped with overnight stays if I'm away with work or socially which has been amazing . Bobby had no issues with Kate living in for the night ! I had such a good evening and didn't worry whatsoever knowing Kate was in charge .
I highly recommend Kate. She is super, knowledgeable, professional and also a lovely lady

Kate is amazing with my puppy, she gives him plenty of attention, care and love on her visits. I can't thank her enough for the time she spends with him, he loves her so much he can't wait to see her again. I would definitely recommend Kate to care for your furry loved one.

Our 2 Dogs, Charlie and Dexter were in great hands with Kate whilst we were away and we have already booked to use Kate again.
With one of our Dogs being elderly and needing medication we were keen for our boys to stay in their own surroundings and with someone with a genuine love for dogs.
We came home to 2 very happy, well cared for dogs and a clean home so more could we ask for.
The communication whilst we were away was excellent and we received regular photos.
We would definitely recommend Kate!

We are so pleased that we approached Kate to help us with drop in visits for our 6 month old Lurcher cross, Rudy. Right from the off at our meet and greet she was professional and very thorough, finding out about Rudy’s routine and his favourite toys. She helped us work out the best visit times and schedule so that Rudy would have enough stimulation and engagement throughout the day. Kate has such a calming and caring nature, which really helped bring out the best in Rudy. And also helped us not to worry as we knew he was being looked after brilliantly. We will definitely be asking Kate to help in the future, we would highly recommend!

I have known Kate since November 2022 when she started walking my dog. I have a Golden Labrador and she has built up trust with him having suffered with an aggressive Dog Walker.
Kate walked Chester on a lead at first due to him pulling, however it wasn't long before he was off the lead as Kate trusted him and he trusted her.
Kate clearly loves dogs and is a kind person
She washes Chester down after every walk and works in all weather conditions, she is so hardworking!
I would recommend Kate to anyone who needs a Dog Walker

Kate looked after our elderly dog (called Squirrel) for our wedding in July this year and I couldn’t have asked for more. I am a self confessed control freak when it comes to my dog and I was so nervous about a stranger looking after her…but I really didn’t need to be. From the moment Kate collected Squirrel to the way she looked after her at the wedding, to looking after her all evening, she put squirrel first and made sure all her needs were taken care of.
Kate treated squiz with the utmost care and affection and really eased our minds during our time away from her. Kate is professional, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals. We highly recommend her services!
Kate was fantastic and so friendly from the moment we met her. We have a 2 year old poochon Betsy who can be a bit nervous of new people at first but Betsy loved Kate from the very first moment they met. We wanted Betsy at our wedding and Kate was amazing, we knew she was safe and looked after from her doing an overnight stay and bringing Betsy to and from our wedding. Not only this she took Betsy and our daughter Iris on a walk whilst we were having photos to keep them both occupied. Kate goes above and beyond and I can’t thank her enough for looking after our fur-baby

Kate is amazing with our lab. We get photo updates and regular contact so know our pet is in safe hands. We have used her for our wedding and overnight dog sitting/walking. She is extremely friendly and professional. We couldn’t recommend her enough!
Toby 02.11.23
Whenever we go away the boy's love having Katie over for sleepovers
She is met with masses of licks and cuddles with both of them wanting the attention
We always get loads of photos and videos of her visits and we can really tell they are happy in her company
We think we miss them more than they miss us!
Can't recommend enough!
