Pet care experience
Hi, my name is Nick and I live with my five-year-old pug Florence. live in a 2 storey detached house with a fully enclosed garden in a village near the Norfolk Broads with excellent road links. It's about 5 miles out of Norwich. I'm a complete dog lover and I have had dogs all my life, mostly small breeds like pugs and dachshunds. I've cared for friends' dogs and pets while they've been away overnight or on longer holidays. I live with Florence who is a very good-natured pug. She gets on well with other dogs and loves to go for a walk and then fall asleep on my lap afterward. I love sharing my home with other dogs who need love and attention while their parents are away. It keeps me active and provides k9 company for Florence. Im an active person and we love the beach and countryside. If your dog prefers a more sedentary stay, I'm good with cuddling too. Your dog can expect a lot of attention and love 💕.

My little Luna is a very anxious creature and I have struggled to find her the right match. Nick and his partner took time to get to know her by having an intro day, understanding her need, routines and behaviours. Then we progressed onto arranging the first day care. Nick was very flexible, accommodating the times we needed and also keeping us up to date by sending photos throughout the day. Again, when I collected Luna, they greeted me by holding her, which is how Luna seeks reassurance.
Nick has looked after my dog twice now and has done a great job both times. He sends lots of updates and pictures and both times I've come back to a happy dog, tired out from all the walkies she's been on - couldn't ask for more!

I'll only care for one other dog in my own home but I'm very happy to care for two dogs in your home. Looking after other small pets 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 I'm reliable and trustworthy. I'm very happy to meet with you and your dog before you trust me to look after them. I'm used to dogs of all ages including the elderly. I can administer medication, eye drops, and anything else your pet needs. Ear cleaning and over-nose wrinkles are a specialty of mine! Let me know if your dog needs special attention, or care or has specific requirements and I'll do my very best to accommodate their needs. My 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. I know the anxieties that come with leaving your dog while you're away, I've used Rover myself. I'll take regular photos of your pet and send them to you, answer any questions or queries you have, and do what I can to put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your holiday.

A typical day
I go on frequent walks but we have a secure enclosed garden too. The countryside is a five-minute walk from where I live and there are some great safe paths near me that are suitable for young and old dogs. I also love going to the beach and it is about 30 minutes away from my house.
