Giant breeds are my specialty.

Pet care experience

Giant, fluffy dogs are my first love and specialty. Having experienced many challenges with owning a large dog they have a special place in my heart and home. I have done obedience and rally training with my Bernese Mountain Dog Marco using positive reinforcement techniques. He is a typical gentle giant with excellent dog manners. I regularly look after friends and family's dogs in my home along with Marco.

Theo my lab just LOVES a walk with Nicola and Marco. She always updates me with photos and I feel safe leaving Theo with Nicola. I thinks Theo and Marco have become great friends! Will continue to use Nicola x

Nicola was a true gem for Rooney. Her evident love for animals and personalised care made me feel at ease. Regular updates and a strong bond assured me he was in great hands. Highly recommend Nicola's exceptional service and dedication

Safety, trust & environment

I have a secure fenced garden where your pup can play, I live in a ground floor flat so will always be close to your dog. My gentle giant Marco will keep your pup company with space for your dogs crate if required. My flat is lovely and cool in the summer. If visiting your home I will do so with the uptmost respect. I have a dog sitter for my dog when I'm at work and so appreciate the apprehension about inviting a stranger into your home to look after your dog

Information Nicola W. would like to know about your pet

Please provide full details about your pup including how they interact with other dogs and their typical routine. Your dog must feel comfortable with larger dogs.

A typical day

I have a huge basket of toys for your dog to play with including enrichment treat dispensers and puzzles. I have completed rally training and will happily try to teach your dog some basics for rewarding mental stimulation. I have two local parks for walks and will happily take your dog out in my car if you provide either a seatbelt or car hammock for their safety.

I live a quiet, calm life and love the joy that dogs give us. As a nurse I work shifts and do have lots of time off during the week to allow me to walk or visit your dog. I have two parks close by as well as a reasonable sized fenced garden for anyone coming for a day visit. If you provide a car restraint (seatbelt or hammock) I will happily take your pup out on adventures with me. Walks will be adjusted to suit your dog and their needs.
