Because I work from home most days, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m around for walks, playtime, meals, and companionship throughout the day. On the rare occasions I need to go into the office, I always plan around the pet’s needs and can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re never left without care or comfort. I would also check that this is ok with the pet owner.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their home, I stick closely to their usual routines to help them feel safe and secure. I provide plenty of affection, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and any needed medications. I also keep the home tidy and treat it with respect — just like I would my own. Every pet has their own personality, and I do my best to adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

We had Nicola house sit for the weekend and we couldn’t have been happier. Nicola was very accommodating to Ruby who is a very nervous dog and nothing was too much trouble. She definitely won her over. We were updated regularly and communication was excellent from start to finish. Nicola respected our home totally so when we arrived home everything was lovely and tidy. I would definitely have Nicola house sit again. Thank you for making our family wedding stress free knowing Ruby was well looked after.

Nicola was great with our two dogs, and kept them entertained. Great communication and flexibility. Us and the dogs would be happy to welcome Nicola back for future sits.

Nicola is the most wonderful sitter for our cat, and goes the extra mile to help out. I was so impressed and grateful that she came back to look after him for an extra night when we found out I'd got the wrong return date for our flight. She is amazing! We came back to a very happy cat and a spotlessly clean house. Thank you, Nicola!
