"Thank you so much for today. I just wanted to say that the training was everything we were hoping for and that I very much admire what you do!! Looking forward to our next training"

"Maisie, our cocker spaniel, has been spending her holidays with Katie and her family since she was a puppy. Maisie can be quite nervous with other dogs and people, but she absolutely adores staying with Katie! As soon as she gets out of the car she can’t wait to get inside Katie’s house which is the best testimonial we could give. We would have no hesitation in recommending Katie’s services, it’s a real home from home, in fact Maisie might even say it’s better than being at home! "

"Our dogs have been walked by Katie for over four years. Katie has been able to cope with our last minute requests (frequently) which has been very helpful. Our two dogs always have a lovely time, and it's good to see photos of them out on their walk and/or the map of their walk"

"We thought the training was great and it has given us some clear things to work on in a consistent way"

"We have 3 dogs who are struggling with being left home alone at the moment. It has been wonderful to know that we can leave them at home in the safe hands of Katie so that we can relax and enjoy an evening out. Katie is a very calm and gentle presence and the dogs were relaxed with her right from the start. She even sent photos to reassure us that all was well. I would not hesitate to recommend her."

"Ruby always has such a wonderful time with Katie, she is welcomed in to Katie's home like a member of Katie's family. She drags me to Katie's door she is so excited. Katie is reliable and treats the dogs like her own. I would and have highly recommended her"

"We go on holiday with complete piece of mind knowing that Dexter is being well taken care of, in a calm, happy and safe environment and is treated as part of the family.

I get regular photographs and updates from Katie. Dexter gets on well with Logan and is even happy to share his bed with him! We have been boarding Dexter with Katie for several years now and I would highly recommend her"

"Thank you for your help and kindness in looking after Polly. I could tell she enjoyed being with you. I think I can speak for Polly to say thank you to you and Brodie for looking after her so well. Thank you again for being so caring. Best wishes Terri and Polly."

"Katie is the only person in Surrey that I would trust our energetic and complicated dog. I cancelled one trip because Katie is on holidays as I do not trust anyone with our weimaraner except her. Calm approach, very analytical and just the best person. Also dropped off a dog in a time when she was supposed to go out."

"All sessions were conducted in a professional manner, they were tailored to specific requirements, and instructions were reinforced to guarantee full understanding. Each session was followed up with helpful training notes and as sessions progressed techniques were tweaked in accordance to Joey’s needs.

Significant progress was made with Joey’s behaviour in the home and although he still has issues outside I now have techniques in place to tackle his behaviour."

"After my first meeting with Katie (at my home) I felt 100% happy leaving my cats in Katie’s care. The whole process was very professional and simple. Katie covers everything you can think of regarding your cat’s needs. I am so happy with the service, I am booking Katie again this year. I thoroughly recommend"

"Katie provided an outstanding service. She took our dog in at very short notice and administered all her medication as directed every 4 hours including throughout the night. Above and beyond the call of duty…I’m not sure there are many people out there who would have taken our dog on.

I would definitely recommend Katie, in fact I have already done so. We won’t hesitate to book Chilli in again next time we are away. She’s all better now so won’t be as much work next time :O)Thanks again Katie!"

"Otis has a serious heart condition, requiring a calm environment and oral medication twice a day and because of this, I'm always really worried about leaving him in the care of other people. Katie is very knowledgable about dogs, and his medical condition did not give her cause for concern. I would recommend Katie as a carer for any dog as I believe she has a keen understanding of the needs of all dogs"

"Susie absolutely loves staying with you. She can't get up the stairs fast enough! Dennis and I are very happy that we've found you and know that Susie is in very capable hands when she is with you. Thank you!"

"I have a 15 year old cross Shih-Tzu and 8 month old Chihuahua. These are my babies and I am very anxious when leaving them. Because I am a professional dog groomer, I made sure that I did a full enquiry of many sitters to give the best care, with a home-from-home environment for my boys.

After meeting Katie several times, I knew I could leave my boys in her care. She made it very easy for me, as she collected them, asked all relevant information and on my return she bought them home very happy".

"We had a puppy consultation and training sessions for our 15 month old Labrador Stanley. As he had no communication with people as a young pup, he was very nervous, and would shake and bolt if anyone came near him. It was only Katie's second visit that she was able to meet him, which we found reassuring.

Katie talked us through training techniques to start, and after a couple of sessions we met at the park for some hands-on training, which we found very useful. We would say Stanley is still slightly nervous but he is a whole lot better than he was. Katie also gave us advice on separation anxiety which Stanley suffered from, but I am pleased to say this is no longer an issue.

We needed help with getting Stanley to walk on a lead without pulling. Katie gave us ideas for this and again this is no longer a problem anymore. We can't really say that this service can be improved"

"Katie looked after both my dogs, Rio and Stanley. As Stanley was very nervous, I was worried that he would not settle. Katie was very patient with him. I was extremely happy with the service I got. They went for long walks and Katie text me to say they were ok, this reassured me no end. I would definitely recommend this service to others and will be using it again in the future."

"Just wanted to say thank you for your time tonight. It was really positive to see Scamp start to  react so well (very encouraging)"
