I'm a writer so have plenty of time to walk and care for pets. I find they curl up under my desk or on my lap while I work. In the summer they garden with me. I have a big home close to the coastal path with secure gates and CCTV.

Nicola looked after Raven and Ted so well! They both have different needs and she was keen to make sure they both got what the needed. They were looked after superbly!

Nicola took the request at short notice. Nicola had a nice laid back and relaxed vibe. Put Pickle at ease and was really good company for him. Despite a wet and dreary day got him out for a good walk. Pickle came back to me relaxed, calm and ready for a sleep :-)

Niki often looks after my collie-cross Archie. He loves going to stay with her and I know he will always get lots of walks and love. Niki takes looking after him very seriously too, including ensuring he has the right food/quantities. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Niki.

Nicola did a brilliant job looking after our dog while we were away. She gave us plenty of updates and reassured us, as we were a bit nervous leaving our dog for the first time. She has a whole host of experience, having previously owned two jack russels. We would definitely use her again!
