About Nicola

Hi there, I'm Nicola, a 22 year old animal obsessed student at UOW (studying Graphic Design & Marketing)

I absolutely adore dogs (and all animals) and would love to help look after your pup!

I've been surrounded by dogs my entire life and after moving to Wollongong from an animal filled farm (near Mudgee), I miss having animals around.

I have my own transport and am easily able to look after your pets in your own home and also ensure that your home is well looked after whilst you are away.

I currently live in an apartment and therefore am unable to have most dogs stay with me overnight, but I'm more than happy to look after them at your home and during the day. Day care could be done in either your own home or potentially in my own home (if it is a smaller dog, large dogs would not suit my apartment size and simply wouldn't enjoy the small space). I am even happy to socialise or train with them on a little dog walk/play date at the park, beach, your home or mine.

I have basic dog training skills and am a volunteer to look after and walk rescue dogs (who are waiting to find their forever homes) several times a week.

Your pets will get my absolute full attention, as a University student I have very flexible hours. I'm trustworthy, friendly, flexible and cooperative.

I love all animals of all shapes and sizes.

I'm also able to look after other animals such as cats, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish...

Please, please, please don't hesitate to message if you have any other questions... I cannot wait to meet, cuddle and treat your pets as family :)
