Pet care experience

Our family love dogs!

Tony, my husband has over 30 years experience of growing up with and looking after dogs but since having our own children we have not had capacity to have our own dog. I have not looked after a dog since I was a child and looked after a relative's dog. We all love dogs, we have friends who have dogs and we enjoy going out for walks with them. We are all active therefore we would take the dog for a walk at least twice a day and would ensure we meet their specific needs. We live in a quiet and relaxed family household near to several parks with one being at the end of our road. We have a small enclosed yard at the rear of our property.

Nicola and her family were amazing with Nova and she was well looked after. Lots of updates and photos without having to ask and changed times at short notice, which really helped me out. Would definitely recommend and use Nicola again. Thank you xx

Nicola and her family looked after our large labradoodle pup Rudy so beautifully when we had our daughter’s wedding. Rudy clearly had a great time and Nicola kept us updated throughout with pictures and texts so I knew we had no worries. I would have no hesitation in recommending Nicola to anyone looking for kind and compassionate people to look after their dog. Thank you again!,

Olive loves staying with Nicola and her family and she’s very well looked after. When she went for the second time she was waiting on the doorstep with her tail wagging! Nicola always sends photos and updates and Olive is always happy 🩷

Nicola and her family looked after Charlie so well. Not only were they flexible around changing times and able to accommodate them, they were able to manage his separation anxiety very well. I would definitely recommend Nicola and her lovely family, and I would definitely ask Nicola if Charlie could board with them again.

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a terraced property. We have a small enclosed yard to the rear of our property but we live adjacent to a park at the end of our road and several other parks are in walking distance to our house.

A typical day

We would love to care for your dog, keeping them occupied physically and mentally. if they have a favourite toy please let them bring it so we can play with it with your dog too. We are an active family and enjoy walking. We would encourage the dog to explore our local green areas with us safely.

Our preference is for breeds who fit in well with families, our children are now 15 and 13 so longer fit in the child categories on the profile. They are sensible and extremely dog friendly.
