Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, Trustworthy Animal Lover
I am a caring, responsible and respectful animal lover and pet sitter. I have been looking after my own and friends and families furry loved ones since childhood mainly dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs. Further, I am a registered dog walker for Newport Dog's Home and have had experience of nervous and reactive dogs. I am very active; love fresh air and a good long walk. I am also about the cuddles, playtime and mental stimulation for your family pets. At the inital meet and greet, I can meet with yourself and your pet to establish trust and see if we are a good fit, as well as discuss your requirements, so I can provide the best care tailored to their needs. I will respect your routines/commands and if house sitting, also your home and belongings. I appreciate it's worrying to leave your furry family members with someone new, hence the initial meet. I provide photos/videos for owners to show them how our day is going. Please do reach out, if you have any queries.
Cat care experience
Nicola also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I would treat your home as if my own. I am responsible, trustworthy, clean and tidy. For familiarity, I would be happy to follow your routines, use commands etc to help your pets feel calm and settled. I love long walks but equally happy to sit and read and give lots of cuddles and attention to your furry friends.
Ratings and reviews
Nicola is fantastic with our 2 dogs. They love her! Both are quite big breeds and strong on the lead, but Nicola manages to walk and handle them with no issues whatsoever. Nicola has also house sitted for us whilst we were on holiday and she is 100% trustworthy, reliable and respectful within our home. I completely trust her with our pets, and would have no hesitation in recommending her.
Nicola looked after my dog and looked after him really well. He had a great time. She is very trustworthy and loves dogs. Nicola can look after my dog any time!

Schedule
I'm currently working part-time Monday to Friday during term-time only, so am available for walks/drop ins pre 7am or post 4pm. Also flexible with overnight stays in your home, but would need some flexibility to attend work, boring I know! Trust me, I'd rather be home with the pets! During school holidays, I have much greater availability and flexibility. Any queries, just ask!
