Hi, I’m Louise
I’m the person behind Nibbles and Tickles Pet Care, providing friendly, reliable in-home pet care across Sonning Common and the surrounding villages.
I started Nibbles and Tickles in May 2025, turning my lifelong love of animals into a career I genuinely love. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for lots of wonderful pets and getting to know their owners too. Building that trust is one of the things I value most about what I do.
I care for dogs, cats and small animals, including guinea pigs and hamsters, with every visit tailored to the individual pet. Whether that means a puppy pop-in, a dog walk, feeding and fuss for your cat, or looking after smaller pets while you're away, I always aim to provide calm, attentive and reliable care.
I’ve owned a variety of pets myself over the years, including cats, rabbits and gerbils, and at home I’m kept busy by my cheeky little pug, Tilly, and my three guinea pigs – Pumpkin, Peanut and Aurora.
My background is in marketing, where I spent more than 20 years working professionally, but pet care has given me the opportunity to combine that experience with something I’ve always genuinely loved: animals.
I’m proud to have built Nibbles and Tickles through personal recommendations, repeat customers and the lovely relationships I’ve developed with the pets in my care. I understand that leaving your pets with someone else is a big deal, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being looked after by someone who genuinely cares.
If you’re looking for an experienced, friendly pet sitter in Sonning Common, Caversham or the surrounding villages, I’d love to meet you and your pets.
