Pets are family in this house! We are happy to accommodate dogs in our home, and in the living spaces. We have lots of blankets and pillows. NB. This is a family home. There are two primary school aged children that live here. There are other dogs in our neighbourhood too. Your pet would need to be comfortable with both adults and children. I will only walk them on a lead for their safety when taking them out of the house or out of our enclosed garden.

Information Nicola C. would like to know about your pet

It's good to get an idea of your dog's general temperament and needs - Does it have any known triggers / anxieties? Are there any specific behaviours I need to be aware of, like lead reactivity or separation anxiety? What is your dog's daily routine and walk schedule like?

A typical day

We have two outdoor spaces for roaming and lovely countryside walks to be had on our doorstep. We will normally walk at least 3 times a day.

Pet care experience

🐾 Welcome to Our Little Doggy Paradise! 🐾 Looking for a home-away-from-home for your dog? You’ve found it! Our house is calm, cosy, and full of love, with soft blankets to snuggle into, laps to lounge on, and pillows to dig in. 🌞 Sunshine, Walks, & Playtime With two outdoor spaces (one fully secure) and a lovely neighbourhood to explore, your dog will get all the fresh air they need. We usually go for three walks a day, weather permitting, so your dog will always be well-exercised and happy. 👧👦 Kid-Friendly Vibes We’ve got two primary school-aged kids who absolutely adore animals. They know how to be gentle and kind, so your dog will be in good hands. Please note, your dog will need to be comfortable around younger children. 🐶 Ideal for Small, Older Dogs We specialise in small to medium, older dogs who love a relaxed atmosphere and enjoy chilling out. 🐱 Cat Care Available Too! If you’ve got a cat, I’m happy to pop by your place for drop-ins. I cover the Cookhams and Maidenhead Riverside areas. Get in touch—I’d love to care for your furry friend like they’re part of the family! 🐕❤️🐈

Nicola was a kind and generous host. She invited us over for a meet and greet and took the time to get to know Evie and Izzy, putting me at ease. Nicola has a lovely secured back garden that the girls immediately started exploring and enjoyed during their stay. When I dropped the girls off, they both went running in. Evie and Izzy stayed for 9 days. I received regular updates and the girls had a fabulous visit with Nicola and her family. I highly recommend and would definitely book to stay again.

Wonderful from start to finish. Quick response time and to create a meet and greet. That was good to see where and who your pup will be staying with, and to make sure both sides are happy. Nicola asked lots of questions about Treacle and her preferences for things, even making sure her medication was taken on time. We got lots of pupdates and photos while we were away, which was very reassuring. Treacle has come back a very chilled pup. Lovely calm family atmosphere and would definitely recommend. We would absolutely book Nicola again.

Ziggy was looked after really well by Nicola & her family over a 9 day period. He’s nearly 15 yrs so likes to sleep a lot, with a couple of shortish walks each day. Nicola was very understanding and caring about his needs, sending updates to reassure me. I’m very happy to recommend Nicola, without any reservations.
