Message from Honey and Dodger's Mom & Dad We had our two boarder terriers in March this year from the Dogs Trust having been rescued from breeding kennels, they are approximately 12 years old and had never received any training or lived in a home before now.
Nicki has been with us from the beginning, walking them every week day come rain or shine. With Nicki's experience, kindness and patience our dogs are now a pleasure to walk and will walk to heel (in unison) without pulling. Nicki has also helped us to manage our two lovely dogs in other ways, for example only this week we have asked Nicki if she would take them for a grooming appointment.
We love our dogs and they have added great joy to our lives, we both work and the only way we could have entertained the idea of having a dog (never mind two) was with the help of Nicki.

Message from Jack & Mika's Mom & Dad Thank you so much for taking care of Mika and Jack for us whilst we were on our holidays. It was such a relief to find someone that we all (dogs included) felt comfortable with and that we all trusted. Not just with taking care of the dogs but someone who we were happy to trust with having access to our home. Although we had family staying to look after them it made their job easier knowing also that you were there for Jack and Mika everyday also. Right from the very first contact you were very professional, helpful and also a very nice person. The dogs also took to you straight away and we, as I am sure lots of other people do, will often trust their pets instincts as well as their own. Again thank you for making it easier for us to go away and enjoy our holiday without having to worry about our "babies" and we would be more than happy to recommend your services to anyone. Philomena and Paul Message from Jackie & Rufus's Mom & Dad 'Our two greyhounds Rufus and Jackie had lived in kennels all their lives until last November, so they need a bit of patience when it comes to meeting other dogs or cats or squirrels! Rufus is also wary and nervous around strangers, so we were not sure how he would take to a new person coming into the house and I was quite worried about letting someone else look after them. But they both took to Nicky straight away, they are completely happy around her. They are always very pleased to see her and thoroughly enjoy their daily walks together.
Nicky is extremely reliable, but also very professional and thorough in the way she takes the time to get to know the dogs and understand their individual needs and strange habits. I know that Rufus and Jackie are very well looked after and cared for by Nicky and I am completely happy for her to come into our home when we're out at work. I don't have to worry about the dogs when I'm out all day and when I get home they are generally much calmer and more content after their walks with Nicky.
I can't recommend Nicky highly enough and I'm sure Rufus and Jackie feel the same. A Message from Hampshire's Mom Hi Nicky
I was very happy with the service you provided. On returning home Hampshire was well fed and happy and the house was clean and tidy. The bin having been emptied of rubbish so not causing the house to smell unpleasant. Everything that I had asked of you had been done including taking my wheelie bin back after it had been emptied. I felt that that Hampshire was in safe hands and I felt confident that you were able to deal with any situation which may arise whilst I was away. It is very important to have the peace of mind that your pets are well taken care of when you are on holiday.
Thanks very much!
Helen A Message from Shelly's Mom "I have found the service offered by Doggy Dawdles and Creature Comforts to be most satisfactory. Nicky is a very caring and efficient person. She relates well to the animals she is looking after. She is very reliable and professional, showing her Certificate of Insurance and her Police Check to new customers. I have found her service invaluable for looking after my cat when I wish to be away for a few days, especially if the break is organised on the last minute. I have no hesitation in recommending her. Mrs. B Garrad."
