Dog's Home Away from Home! 🐾

Pet care experience

I have a great passion for animals (especially dogs). When growing up, my family always had animals; dogs, birds, fishes, hamsters, you name it! I have been a part-time dog sitter and walker for around 3 years and now switched to full-time. I also work as a receptionist in an emergency vet clinic during the festive period, this where I learned dog CPR.

Nikola was amazing at giving updates, super understanding and did an amazing job looking after my two pups. They came back happy and tired! Thank you so much for looking after them so well ♥️

Luna seemed very happy with Nikola and I was kept informed with photos while I was away.

Very happy with Nikola, who took our puppy on walks over the course of a couple of weeks when we weren’t able to. Nikola was quick and easy to communicate with and Bonnie loved seeing her. Thank you very much!

Nikola did a wonderful job of looking after Rex! She updated me constantly with messages, photos and videos which I really liked! She also played with him and provided mental enrichment to keep him busy which was great to know! I would happily have her round again to look after him and would recommend! 😊

I am a dental student and I am currently on my summer break. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pups and they will receive full-time care. My schedule is not busy at all, during the weekday I go to the gym or walk to local cafes or parks as I am trying to increase my step count - no better way to do this than with a dog by your side!
