Safety, trust & environment

We only care for one guest dog in our home but I'm very happy to care for two dogs in your home. Looking after other small pets and cats in your home is fine too. I'm used to feeding pond fish as well as the wild birds. I've looked after friends' guinea pigs too. I've been DBS checked and we're very reliable and trustworthy. We're very happy to meet with you and your dog before you trust us to look after them - a 'meet and greet' is essential prior to booking for the first time so we can understand your dog's needs.

Caring for your very important pet

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Nick and I live with my wife Louise, and Florence, our very good-natured pug. Florence gets on well with other dogs and loves to go for a walk with our furry guests. Louise and I have always been dog lovers and we've had dogs and other pets all our lives, mostly small breeds like pugs and dachshunds. We've cared for friends' dogs and pets while they've been away overnight or on longer holidays and have built up a very satisfied client list through Rover. We all live in a two-storey detached house with a fully enclosed garden in a village near the Norfolk Broads. There are excellent road links from Norwich and other parts of Norfolk. We love sharing our home with other dogs who need love and attention while their parents are away. Our guests keep Florence company and all the walks keep us fit and active. We're active people and we love the beach and countryside. If your dog prefers a more sedentary stay, we're good with cuddling and TV in front of the fire too. Your dog can expect a lot of attention and love 💕. We're used to dogs of all ages including the elderly. We can administer medication, eye drops, and anything else your pet needs. Ear cleaning and over-nose wrinkles are a specialty of mine! Let us know if your dog needs special attention or care, or has specific requirements and we'll do our very best to accommodate these needs. Our goal is to make your dog feel at home and loved while you're away, and to make you feel confident that they'll be cared for in a loving environment. We know the anxieties that come with leaving your dog while you're away. We'll take regular photos for you and send them to you through the Rover app. We're always happy to answer any questions or queries you have and do what we can to put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your holiday. The services we offer are: Feeding, walking, brushing, washing, cleaning nose and ears, and lots of cuddles. Certifications: • Accredited Dog First Aid and CPR Drop off and pickup: We can be flexible for your dropoff needs - early mornings and evenings are fine. Rover automatically applies an extended booking rate if care periods exceed a 24 hour period. Please see the help section for details: Help Centre > I'm a pet owner > Payments Please provide: • Enough food for your dog's stay • Your dog's basket/bet and blanket or bedding • Toys and treats • Collar/harness and lead. It is a legal requirement that all dogs must have an ID tag with their owner's contact details. Emergency contacts: Your Rover profile must be complete and include your contact details, a backup contact, and the contact information of the dog's regular veterinarian.

Thank you Nick and Louise for caring so well for Otto again overnight. He was very happy and settled on his return.

Another wonderful stay with Nick and Louise. Our dog, Alfie is a rather sensitive soul and he is so happy and relaxed staying, with plenty of walks, love and hugs. He also loves being with Florence the pug. Would not hesitate to book Alfie to stay again. Thank you so much for taking care of him - such a relief to know he is happy when we go away x
