Information Nick W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or has any behaviours I need to know about so I can show them the up most care and attention.

A typical day

During walks I like to let the dog be happy and try to let them do their thing as much as possible (mainly sniffing things)! I like to take them through parks, along the river and especially the woods. I carry treats and will play the hide the treat game which is stimulating and tasty for them! Also like to play chase with a ball and go swimming in a safe area if allowed!

Pet care experience

Hello! I have dog walked and sat for the last 3 years, looking after many and a wide range of dog breeds and ages! I very much enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it's relaxing at home or going for fun ans interesting walks. I'm always vigilant and my focus is very much on the dog during walks. It's great to form a bond and so far every dog seems to have liked me!

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Nick to look after my German Shepherd for ten days and I can’t recommend him highly enough! From the moment we started working together, his professionalism and genuine love for dogs were evident. Punctuality - Nick was always on time, which I greatly appreciated. Knowing my dog was in good hands at the scheduled times gave me peace of mind. Long Walks - He took my German Shepherd on long, stimulating walks that catered to her energy levels. It was clear he understood the importance of exercise and mental stimulation for a large breed like mine. Safety in the Heat - With the summer heat, I was particularly concerned about my dog's safety. Nick was very mindful of the weather conditions, ensuring that walks were scheduled during cooler parts of the day and providing plenty of water breaks. Check-ins with Photos and Videos - I loved receiving regular updates with photos and videos. It was reassuring to see my dog happy and engaged during their outings and at Nick’s home too. I could see she was being well looked after. This transparency made me feel connected and confident in his care. Knowledge and Handling - His expertise in handling dogs was clear. Nick demonstrated great knowledge about dog behavior and effectively managed my dog’s strong anxiety with a calm and confident demeanor. It was evident he knew how to create a positive experience for her. On top of everything, Nick had a fantastic personality. Friendly, approachable, and relaxed, he made my dog feel comfortable right away. His professional yet easygoing approach was a perfect match for my dog’s temperament. Overall, my experience with Nick was exceptional. He exceeded my expectations, and I felt completely at ease knowing my German Shepherd was in such capable hands. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker! / boarder

Nick was great - he helped me out with daycare for my dog Hettie at short notice. Great communications and updates through the day and I came home to a relaxed and happy dog so I feel confident that she had a great stay

Nick walked my 6 yo male Boxer dog. Nick was on time, friendly, and my dog seemed very happy on his walk.
