Pet care experience

A happy and safe place for your dog

I’ve grown up with a Jack Russell Terrier and helped take care of him for 13 years. I’ve also been fostering dogs since 2019 and adopted an American Pitbull Terrier last year. She’s very sweet and gets along with every dog she’s met. I have experience with administering medication and dogs with different energy levels. I will treat your dog like my own! I can also take your dog out for a long walk or a hike, please let me know what you prefer.

Absolutely brilliant. Nicole was caring, attentive, and brilliant to work with. She took Acey and he had an absolute blast. She kept me informed, and took care of Acey for us. We will definitely use Nicole’s services again. Thank you!

⭐️TOP TIER SITTER⭐️ As a former London cat sitter I have very high standards when it comes to selecting a sitter for my boys. When I met Nicole, I was drawn by her joyful energy and big smile. As I walked her through the house I was delighted to see her take detailed notes of the instructions/needs for the duration of the booking. The sitting itself gave me such peace of mind: multiple detailed pictures daily, along with notes from the visit. My boys are very skittish about new people but the fact that they warmed up to her playing and asking for cuddles really helped my nervous system relax. Nicole is an exquisite pet sitter, I highly recommend and will be booking again. Thank you Nicole, from me and the boys❤️🐾

It was the first time I’ve left my little one in the care of strangers. I’m so happy to have had Nicole take such good care of her.
