Home from home!

Pet care experience

Long walks and playing games in the many nearby parks is my idea of a perfect afternoon. I love spending time getting to know a dog and making them feel at home, and working out what makes them feel safe, comfortable and happy. I'm an experienced dog handler with years of experience, and always make sure a dog is properly looked after and cared for, as if they are in their own home. I'm also very happy to travel and dogsit in your home whilst you are away, if that's what you and your dog prefers 😊

Nicola was lovely with Otis , she was kind and patient with him. She was understanding and flexible when I had to alter arrival time . I would definitely book Nicola again.

As always Peggy enjoyed her time with Nicola. Nicola always checks requirements and expectations and sends updates to reassure.

My puppy was so contented and relaxed after his stay with Nicola, I think he was disappointed by my return. She looked after him beautifully. I nearly didn't leave a review because I didn't want her to get too booked up in the future!

Nicola has just been house-sitting for us and it has worked out brilliantly. The dogs love her, and she them. She communicates really well with us, sends pics if need be, asks the right questions and most importantly is attentive to the dogs' needs. When we returned the dogs were relaxed and it was obvious that they had had a great time of it. Well fed, well walked, well loved. If you are in need of a dog sitter/walker, then Nicola is a great bet. Highly recommended.
