Dog lover with experience caring for anxious dogs
Pet care experience
We (my partner and I) absolutely love dogs but sometimes have to go into the office or travel abroad with work so sadly can't have a dog of our own at the moment. We would love to look after yours for you! Our experience includes: training puppies, looking after and living with anxious and reactive dogs, fostering experience of Romanian rescues, training in behavioural issues including reactivity, separation anxiety, pulling on the lead, recall, and experience caring for dogs with epilepsy. We work full time from home (apart from occasional office days) but would only board when we're at home and wouldn't leave the dogs. Our work is quite flexible which allows us to ensure all the dogs we look after would be well cared for and have company during the day, including play, toilet breaks and walks! We have a big garden and access to footpaths with fields just over the road with lots of great walks! We also have a long line we can use if your dog would like the freedom to explore but you'd rather we don't let them off the lead. We have a dog crate which we can use if that is what you would prefer but are happy to be flexible for whatever makes your pup comfortable! We also have a puppy play pen if required. We have two cars if transport is needed. We are registered with a dog rescue rehoming charity as fosterers, and therefore have had a home check and passed all requirements e.g. secure garden.
Reviews
Nicole M. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Bella had another great stay with Nicole and Chris, this time for a longer stay and we were reassured that she was in great hands and would be looked after so well. Receiving the photos was also lovely and we just hoped Bella was behaving herself, so she would be welcomed back again ! Thank you Nicole and Chris.
Bella was looked after so well and enjoyed her walks - it was great receiving the photo updates during her stay. We feel very comfortable leaving Bella with Nicole and Chris.
Nicole and Chris were great with Reggie who is quite anxious when we leave him. He is quite a clingy boy and they were very patient and understanding. Nicole kept me up to date with photos and messages. He seemed very happy and settled when I picked him up. Thanks guys.

Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet
Please let us know if your dog has any special requirements or behavioural issues we should be aware of so that we can ensure we make your dog as comfortable as possible!
A typical day
We both work full time in desk based jobs from home, so although we would be busy sometimes our jobs are flexible and would allow us to spend time with your dog, including taking them for walks, play and more importantly, cuddles! We live on the edge of beautiful countryside so have access to plenty of footpaths through fields and woodlands. In the house we can keep your dog stimulated with games and brain exercises to tire them out if needed. We have lots of experience with high energy dogs...!
