Furry friends are the best of friends

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was maybe 10, starting with taking a pair of Irish Wolfhounds for walks with my best friend when they were nearly as tall as us!. As me all my neighbours’ names and I know the names of all the dogs! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and look after their dogs many times and so I started offering Petsitting services. I’ve had my own dogs in the past and miss training them, interacting and playing with them, talking to them and definitely kisses and cuddles. The ideal petsit for me is a dog that likes to play ie fetch a ball etc and also one that that the owner is happy with me bundling the dog(s) into the car and heading down to the beach early morning or late evening, or into the campo, and letting them burn off energy, get filthy and have a bath or shower afterwards. I love big dogs, I’ve grown up with bigger breeds but I’m also great with little dogs too. I’ve also had my own cats before. I love how they are the absolute boss of the household. And I have also looked after chickens and pigs recently. So I think to sum up, I’m a versatile pet sitter who genuinely loves the time with animals and I’m a respectful houseguest and give my owners peace of mind their fur babies and their home is in good hands I work from home and have a flexible work schedule so I have plenty of time to give to the pets around their schedule, early morning or late at night or whatever they need When possible I always like to meet the pets and their humans once before the booking starts, to start the bonding process so I am not a complete stranger. I ask lots of questions about day-to-day care of your pet from what words they understand, to keeping them safe outside the home, to their feeding routines, and any special requirements. They are part of your family and I would look after them as well as if you put me in charge of babysitting

Nicky is a fantastic pet sitter and we will definitely book her again for our next trip. She minded our 3 year old Weimaraner for 10 days, he is super active so needs someone who loves to walk or hike and be active and he is also a "velcro dog" so is very attached to his owners and loves company as much as possible. Nicky was the perfect fit for Cooper, they went on so many adventures and Nicky was great at keeping us updated with lots of photos and videos. Cooper was very anxious for the first 24 hours after we left but Nicky was great and put him at ease very quickly, she was also very responsive and kept us up to date throughout our trip. It was a real relief to see Cooper having such a great time while we were away. Thanks Nicky

Nicola looked after our 5 month old puppy and two cats this weekend and we came home to a totally calm and happy household! This is the first time we have left Zoey the puppy and we were a little worried how she would react but Nicola is so knowledgeable and professional, she knew exactly how to look after her. She also gave us some tips and recommendations to help with her training, which will so appreciate as this is the first time we have ever had a dog in the house. I now know that I can go away and leave Zoey with someone who she knows and trusts and has fun with. Thank you so much Nicola!

Information Nicola E. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know the pet’s day to day routine and also any specifically requirements. I also like to know what words they know and understand - in English or Spanish is fine, how they interact or what to do upon meeting other dogs out on walks, and how to clean your dog if we get mucky on our walks

A typical day

I love interacting with dogs physically and mentally, playing with their toys and going on great walks both in their regular area and off on new adventures to the beach, if owners are comfortable with me doing that
