Passionate dog-lovers who are safe & reliable
Hi my names Nicole! I’m 29 and I live in Bickley with my boyfriend, Taylor. We are genuine animal lovers, who have always been brought up with dogs. Mainly medium/large dogs such as Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Mastiffs and Weims - but we love all doggos large and miniature! I’m a true believer in dogs really are family members - After losing my beautiful Golden Retriever Jake at the amazing age of 18 a few years back, I feel like a part of me is missing. I love animals and when looking after them they are never left on their own as well as sure to have lots of walks, cuddles and affection to ensure they are comfortable, safe & well-cared for! I look after my relatives & friends’ dogs regularly & there’s nothing I look forward to more! I will be on hand to provide regular pup-dates as I understand leaving your baby with someone can be super worrying & you want to know they are loved just as much as at home! I can answer any and every question to make sure you’re fully comfortable and always like to ensure a meet and greet with dog & owner happens first to help with that. I work from home Mon - Fri and have a pretty relaxed schedule in general, there will always be time for breaks and walks as well as feeding, playing and bathing if necessary also. I am available for dog- boarding weekdays from mid-day onwards as well as select weekends from Sunday onwards. I live in a ground floor apartment with a semi-open garden, but your fur-baby would always be supervised! I offer regular walks also of course. We have a relaxed, peaceful home with no other pets & we would only be boarding/looking after one dog at any given time to ensure our full attention is on them. We’re generally very relaxed and sofa cuddles with your fur baby is fine by us also (if you allow at home that is!)

Ratings and reviews
Amazing as always - thank you Nicole!
Brilliant as always 😀
Nicole was very accommodating and responsive to messages. Drop off and pick up were great and Indy came home healthy, safe and tired! Many thanks Nicole!
Brilliant. Daosy settled down with Nicole straight away and was very content when I picked her up
I would 100% recommend Nicole and Taylor - they took such good care of Tuna! I am always nervous when leaving him and they sent regular updates and pictures so I knew he was having a fab time. I would recommend them to anyone and will 100% be back in touch when I next need daycare or boarding! Thank you both ❤️
Nicole is so lovely and she is very responsive. She sent me updates throughout the day and shared photos so I know how the dog is getting on. My dog didn’t want to go home by the end of the day. Will definitely use her service again.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a nice sized shared garden with our other neighbours - which nobody tends to use but us! It is partially open & not completely fenced off so we tend to ensure that any dogs we are looking after are not left out there unattended, just to be safe! Regular toilet breaks in our garden are provided alongside daily walks which we try to stick to as close as owners usual routines each time for consistency.
A typical day
There are lots of lovely walking woods nearby, I am a fond believer in physically and mental fun for fur-babies so lots of attention both indoors and outdoors to ensure they’re well cared for is key for me.

- It’s always great to hear from owners on specific needs their dogs may have. Please do let me know if they respond to certain commands and calls, specific rules they have at home that you wish for me to follow when taking care of them, special diets etc also. How do they get on outdoors and on walks? Is there anything I should look out for or steer clear of? Any fears or allergies the dog may have is always super important to know. As mentioned before, I want to make sure you and your dog are super comfortable with us so meet & greets beforehand is really important to us, so I can get to know you both and build a bond.
