Pet care experience
I've grown up around all sorts of small animals; dogs, cats, rodents and hamsters and have lovingly cared for them since I was a child. I am comfortable around dogs of all sizes after caring for small dogs and dogs requiring a great deal of a exercise like Huskys. I can feed, bathe and orally medicate most animals. I have my own dog, an excitable Golden Retriever who I've raised from a puppy which means I'm experienced dealing with that extreme puppy energy! I am a dedicated rabbit owner and know how important it is to find someone who fully understands how to care for exotic animals. I am experienced medicating and grooming rabbits and understand the benefits of a good quality diet and place to live.

I booked Doris in for an overnight stay with Nicole this weekend. Nicole was super quick to respond and we even had a meet and greet so Doris could get used to her surroundings and I could ask any questions about Doris's stay. Nicole was so good with Doris and you can tell she has a genuine love for dogs and small animals. Doris was so relaxed with Nicole and at her place, I was kept updated with photos and messages which was lovely since it was Doris's first night away from home. I wouldn't hesitate to book Nicole again or recommend her to anyone ☺️
Nicole was so great with Ted, who is prone to separation anxiety. She took lots of time to meet him in advance and asked plenty of questions about his routine and what would make his stay most comfortable. I definitely recommend Nicole and would have Ted stay with her again without hesitation!
Nicole was amazing! She minded our 4 month old puppy overnight and kept us updated with pictures so we didn’t worry. Our puppy was clearly very well cared for and we are delighted.
Nicole has looked after my pets for me multiple times over the years. She's taken my dog for walks in the mornings and evenings when I've been through busy periods at work and has looked after my cats on countless holidays. She's responsible, trustworthy and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the animals are well looked after and happy. She's very vigilant and made sure to contact me in the past when she noticed one of the cats wasn't quite herself and sorted out a vets visit. Wouldn't hesitate to trust my pets to her in the future. Thanks!

I have a medium sized fully enclosed garden for dogs to roam around and small animals to visit under supervision. I can crate animals if required, however, I am happy to have uncrated animals in my home who would sleep in the kitchen or bedroom overnight. I can accommodate nervous pets who need someone by their side day and night, as long as you let me know in advance and I can make sure my schedule is completely clear 😊 During the day, dogs are welcome to access the entire downstairs area. I have plenty of cosy spaces and couches for dogs to lounge on. Small furrys should be provided with their own pen/cage/set up and can be set up in the living room or a quiet spare room depending on your preference.

Information Nicole G. would like to know about your pet
It would be helpful for me to know your dog's daily routine, any medication they require, whether they can be left alone for short periods of time (e.g I'd I need to go grocery shopping etc), if they're sociable with other dogs and how they might react when encountering other dogs on walks. I am happy to take nervous dogs who need 24/7 attention as long as I know in advance.
A typical day
My area has a good few options to walk depending on your pets needs. We take walks around the streets, over into the fields and larger walks to the local parks. We have Pollok park, Queens park and Rouken Glen park all just around the corner. We play games throughout the day.

Availability
During the school term, I work full time. I am available for boarding during school holidays and weekends. I am able to look after small animals in my home during the week if they do not require someone home during the day. During the summer/Easter/October holidays I will be available full time during the week and weekends.
