Ready to pamper your pup 🐾

🐾 About us: I grew up with 5 family dogs, and have been looking after dogs of different sizes for over 15 years now. This has helped develop a deep love and passion for looking after dogs. Over the past 5 years, I have helped friends and relatives by looking after their furry friends. Through this, I develop extensive experience caring for a variety of dog breeds. From daily walks and playtime, to feeding and administering medication, we ensure each pet feels loved, safe and happy in our home. 🐶 Our experience: My partner Jia, and myself are comfortable handling pets of different sizes and age, tailoring the care to their unique needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, cuddles or interactive play, they will be provided with the affection and attention they deserve. 📅 Availability in 2026: In 2026, both Jia and I have busy schedules, so our dog sitting availability is more limited. However, whenever we do have availability, we are always happy to help because we truly love spending time with dogs and caring for them whenever we can. 💛 Our goal: Our goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your furry friend is in caring and capable hands.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 21, 2026

Nicholas and Jia are excellent dog sitters. They genuinely care about Oli and provided updates throughout the day to reassure me he was was well taken care of and settled. Very happy and will use again in the future.

We are so happy to have found Nicholas and Jia to look after stitch, when we picked him up after the weekend away he was happy, healthy and our normal boy. We had daily updates from Nicholas with pictures of stitch and keeping us up to date on how he was settling in. We would highly recommend this couple and will most definitely be using them for our holidays or trips away. Thankyou for looking after our fur baby

Nicholas and Jia were fabulous dog sitters for our boy. He has some anxiety and can be high energy as well. But they looked after him so well and gave him all the love, attention and exercise he needed. Updates were sent as often as needed. They are very good at what they do and were also great at putting my mind at ease as I had been nervous about leaving him. We will definitely use them again as soon as we can. Thank you both 😊 🐾

We still leaving Haku with Nicholas and Jia as they are amazing, Haku is really happy with them, they are always informing us about him and sending us pictures, they also clean him after every walk, this time Haku wasn’t feeling great in one of his paws and they were making sure that it didn’t get worse and giving him so much love. We will continue to contact them in the future ☺️

My dog Henry has obviously had soooo much fun with Nicholas and has been so well cared for. We were very grateful for the updates, photos and videos. As always communication was excellent. We rate Nicholas’ care very very highly and have no hesitation in recommending him. Henry is always in the very best of hands when he’s staying with him.

Safety, trust & environment

In our home, we provide a safe, clean and pet friendly environment, free of hazards and tailored to your pet's needs. We ensure they have plenty of space to play, rest and feel at ease. We will supervise your pet closely to ensure they are safe and comfortable, providing lots of love and attention. We maintain a calm, structured environment to help your pet feel secure and stress-free. Building trust with both you and your pet is our priority, ensuring they feel happy and well-cared-for.

A typical day

Every day is tailored to your pet's needs and preferences! For active pets, we’ll enjoy walks in nearby parks or play fetch in the park to burn off energy. For more relaxed pets, we’ll have cozy cuddle sessions and gentle playtime indoors. We prioritise creating a safe and stress-free environment, whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or quiet moments. If they’re comfortable in the car, we can also visit nearby trails or green spaces for variety.

It’s important for me to know your pet’s personality, habits, and any special requirements to provide the best care. Key details include: - Behaviour: Are they social or shy around new people, pets, or environments? - Routines: Feeding times, walking schedules, and bedtime preferences. - Health: Any allergies, medications, or medical conditions I should be aware of. - Triggers: Things that may cause stress, such as loud noises or unfamiliar situations. - Likes and Dislikes: Favourite toys, activities, or treats, as well as anything they don’t enjoy. This information helps me ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy while in our care. 🚫 Important: We are unable to accept unspayed females or those in heat. Please let us know this information at the time of booking. If this is not disclosed and we discover it during the stay, you will be required to collect your pet immediately.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
