Hi, I’m Nic — friendly, safety‑minded and experienced with dogs from bouncy pups to mellow seniors. I focus on keeping your dog’s routine steady, giving them lots of supervised company, and keeping you in the loop with regular photo + message updates.

What’s included: Daily feeding to your instructions, plenty of supervised indoor time, access to my secure grassed backyard, play/enrichment, oral medication administration, basic training refreshers (sit, stay, recall, loose‑lead, polite waits), light brushing/wipe‑downs, and daily updates.

Medication: Yes — I can give oral meds (pills, liquids, powders) as prescribed. I don’t give injections.

Training: Positive‑reinforcement refreshers only (no full behaviour‑mod programs). Happy to help maintain the cues you already use.

Grooming: Light brushing if you provide tools; no full clipping/bathing unless they need a quick shower.

1 guest dog at a time so yours gets my full attention. 2 from the same household considered if known to be compatible — please message first.

Walk length: Up to 60 minutes per walk in good weather along the local creek or lake (adjusted shorter for heat/age/health).

Walks per day: 2 walks (AM & PM) included with boarding/daycare. Extra walks for high energy breeds.


Time & Supervision

I’m home most of the day (only host on my days off) and structure my schedule around guest dogs.

Boarding: I will not leave dogs alone for more than 1–2 hours, if at all.

Daycare: Dogs are not left alone except for a potential quick visit to the store across the road etc.

Can usually supervise 24/7 apart from quick local errands; if something longer ever came up, I’d arrange trusted coverage or decline the booking.

Availability is generally good weekdays & some weekends as I work shift work.


My Home

Household: Just me. No resident pets, no kids — ideal for dogs who prefer calm one‑on‑one care.

Sleeping: Your dog can sleep on a provided dog bed, their own bed you bring, or in a crate (yours) if that’s what they’re used to. Happy to have them in my bedroom if it helps them settle.

Indoor access: Guest dogs welcomed inside and supervised; climate control available in hot/cold weather.

Backyard: Secure, fully fenced patio and grass yard with solid fencing and no way to escape even for the best escape artists. Room to sniff, lounge, and do toileting breaks.


Before You Book

Please let me know: age/breed mix, routine, meds, vet info, behaviour notes (reactivity, separation worry, allergies, etc.), and desired dates. I’ll work with you to make a smooth handover.
