Pro Care for your Furry Family

I’m not just a pet lover; I’m trained in professional animal care. I hold a recognised qualification in Dog Grooming, which gave me invaluable experience in understanding canine anatomy and individual temperaments. This training also included Dog First Aid, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in safe hands. I am also DBS checked. I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals - from dogs and cats to parrots, lizards, and rabbits! I genuinely love their company and will always treat your pets with the same respect and high level of care I would give my own. I run my own pet photography business (which includes a hybrid sitting/photography service) called The Dog Frame. While your daily updates will usually be quick snapshots from my phone, I do like to bring my professional camera along for longer house sits/bookings to capture a few high quality images of your pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Safety, trust & environment

I have trained in an educational setting in how to correctly and safely look after and care for dogs. I am able to recognise different behaviours, which can be helpful in certain situations, such as identifying a potential problem before it escalates - I feel this is important, as there can be much more to pet care than meets the eye. The safety and comfort of your pet will always be my top priority.

Autumn was so rela ed when we got home after 3 visits from Nikki. Over 2 days. My daughter met Nikki on the last visit and commented how lovely she was with her. Peace of mind made our daughters wedding so much more enjoyable.

Nikki was brilliant popping in on our dog recently. She has a really calm presence around our dog took to her instantly. Really good at communication and feel so happy knowing I can book her again.

It was great to meet Nikki and immediately felt happy to arrange for her to come and walk my dog. On the day I came home to a very happy sausage, I like the summary I received of the visit and a bonus little Photoshoot too! Would happily book Nikki again

Nikki is amazing, Kat had a great time when we were away and I can see how happy she is. We enjoyed our time out as well knowing that both Kat and Nikki was getting along very nicely.

Another day of two happy spaniels - Nikki is literally the only person my spaniel boy behaves for!

I’m not one who finds it easy to leave her dogs with other people, especially as one of mine is now elderly and having health issues and the other is a certified lunatic! However, Nikki did a brilliant job with them yesterday, the photos throughout the day kept me happy knowing everything was ok, and the dogs themselves seemed to love her. Would highly recommend!
