Highlights
Pet care experience
Tail Wags, Purrs & Peace of Mind
I’m not just a pet sitter — I’m your pet’s new best friend. With a calm, caring nature and a knack for connecting with animals (even the shy ones), I create a home-from-home feeling, whether it’s a cosy cuddle on the sofa or an energetic stroll in the park. Think of me as the stand-in human your pet deserves when you can’t be there. I love cats so much and dogs also hold a special place in my heart.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and take safety seriously — from securely locking up after visits to keeping routines consistent and stress-free. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet with someone new, and I treat that trust with the care it deserves.
Ratings and reviews
I can highly recommend Nikki as a fantastic cat and house sitter !! From the moment she came round to meet me and Alfie, I felt confident Alfie would be in safe hands whilst I was away. I could tell Nikki really loves cats and would look after Alfie, who is an older cat, with care and attention. She was great at keeping in touch, updating me and sending photos or videos, and checking in with me about stuff. It meant I could relax and know that Alfie, who is very precious to me would be ok !! I came back to a very happy contented cat and a tidy clean house Thank you so much from both of us Nikki. We look forward to seeing you again.
Nikki was lovely. She looked after the cats really well and kept me updated with pictures and messages. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived home. Most importantly the cats were happy.
Nikki looked after our cats for 10 days while we were away and she was amazing. I was really anxious about leaving them because they mean the world to me, and she made me feel completely at ease. She sent us lots of photos, videos and updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was so lovely to see how happy the cats were with her. Nikki is such a kind and genuine person who really cares about the pets she looks after. She even made sure we had a plan in place in case our flight home was delayed, so we knew the cats would always be looked after. We also came home to a lovely tidy house, which was so nice after a long journey. We’ll definitely be booking her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thank you for taking such great care of our fur babies!
Nicola dropped in every day to look after our cat whilst we were on holiday. Perfect job - she was reliable, kept us updated and left everything clean and tidy. She also watered the plants on our patio, which was highly appreciated. Thank you!

Schedule
I work remotely just two days a week, giving me the flexibility to offer focused, one-on-one care either in your home or mine. Whether it’s daily visits or longer stays, I adapt to your pet’s routine — and I’m always happy to share updates, photos and little stories so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well looked after.
- CatsNicola can host up to 1 pet per night
- I’d love to know everything that makes your dog feel safe and loved — their routine, favourite treats, quirks, cuddle preferences, any medical needs, play habits, fears, commands, and how I can truly spoil them.
