Information Nigel S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know in advance if your dog is potty trained, which commands work, if they have any behavioral anxieties or fears, likes or dislikes, and if they respond well to treats. Some guidance on how best to communicate with them is always helpful. Also if they need to take any medications, how often they need to eat, how often they would need to go outside etc.

A typical day

If your pretty is active, we'll play outdoors, go for runs together, play catch with my husband, Matt. Matt and I are very athletic people and we love the outdoors therefore we won't have a problem being with the dogs outside most of the time. Equally, being at home is a pleasure as well!!!

I have cared for dogs pretty much all my life. Now with a dog park in my building the dogs can exercise, play, and potty breaks are more fun than ever!

Nigel is an amazing dog sitter. He took care of my dog for a whole month. He was extremely warm, loving and caring. I’m so happy I found Nigel. He is now the only person I trust my dog with.

I used to watch Slink from time to time for Nigel. Slink was an incredible dog, the best I ever watched. Nigel clearly raised and trained him very well. I would trust Nigel to watch any animal of mine anytime
