Home
Information Nicola J. would like to know about your pet
I always encourage owners to share any specific needs or routines their pet may have so I can provide truly tailored care. Whether it’s dietary requirements, behaviour quirks, preferred walking styles, or medical needs, the more I know, the better I can support your pet’s comfort and wellbeing. I’m also experienced in administering medications, including injections, and I follow instructions carefully to ensure everything is done safely and calmly.
A typical day
When caring for visiting dogs, I welcome them as part of the family from the moment they arrive. They enjoy two long walks each day, plenty of playtime, and constant companionship. My home has a secure, fully fenced garden where they can explore safely and relax outdoors. Indoors, dogs are free to settle wherever they feel most comfortable—yes, they’re absolutely allowed on the sofa for cuddles. I aim to create a calm, homely environment so your dog feels loved, included, and truly at home.

Pet care experience
I have owned dogs, cats and horses since I was a child. At the moment we are pet free after losing our 3 dogs who were elderly 😟 We really miss having a pet and it would be nice to have an animal in the house again!
Cat care experience
Nicola also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Nicola and her husband looked after my baby boy Kobe. He loved every second of it…thank you both! Look forward to using you again soon
I can't thank Nicola enough for looking after my dog for two nights. He's a very nervous boy, so I was naturally anxious about leaving him, but Nicola was so kind, patient, and reassuring from the very beginning She really took the time to let him settle at his own pace and made sure he felt safe and comfortable When I picked him up, he was calm and content, and it was obvious he'd been genuinely well cared for. Knowing someone treated him with so much patience and understanding made all the difference. I wouldn't hesitate to leave him with Nicola again and would wholeheartedly recommend. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of him! 😘 Will deffo be rebooking!
Lucy always returns home with a smile on her face and in a relaxed mood after a stay with Nicola. I'd thoroughly recommend her services and would gave no hesitation in booking her again.
Luce always returns home in a relaxed state after staying with Nicola. Luce is extremely well looked after and obviously enjoys her little breaks away from home, testimony to how good a job Nicola does. I've already booked Lucy's next stay.
