The lads are back 🥰 🐶 🐶🐶
It’s been quite the July! Nelson and I now have a couple of weeks off to recover until we go again, oh and just in time to watch the Olympics 😉😝
What are your weekend plans?
Mine? Pretty much this 👇🏻
The return of Luna and Lenny 🐶 🐶🐶🐾💞
Such a lovely review from the newly weds! I absolutely adore these two wee pups, and it was a pleasure to help them have a small part in their pawrent’s special day 😂 Don’t they all look dapper. 🥰
Nothing is too much hassle at Nelson’s House 👰🏼🥂🫶🏻🐾
3 years ago today, this little bundle of fur pawed his way into my life and heart. Feels like yesterday but also like he has been here forever. 3 years of almost daily walks and lots of bags of poo. 😂😂😂 🐾 🫶🏻
Nelson is all ready to cheer on the lads - tasty for success🏏🏴⚽️
Strangely we had the field to ourselves this afternoon, can’t think why😝
Fun in the rain, a rinse off and then drying off before tea - only the best treatment at Nelsons House 👌🏻🙌🏻🐶🐶☔️
Penny is back!!! Love me a bit of Penster time…
Despite the wet weather these two have had the best day.
2 Cockapoos having zoomies in the house is fun 🙄😩😂 Wish me luck for a week of rain ☔️☔️🫣
Nelson is the birthday boy today! 3 years old.
Enjoying his (minging) treat box and a new Gareth #3 (his dog toy). He had a wee ‘pawty’ with his doggy friends at the weekend and is going for breakfast on Friday with his bestie 😂😂
Not spoilt at all!! 🎂 🎁 🐶 🐾 🫶🏻
It’s open season at Nelson’s House and kicking off 2024 is wee little Baxter. After a meet and greet walk, a house visit and a solo house visit we had a successful trial night and here we are 🙌🏻 🐶 🐶 🐾 🫶🏻
Nelson has just been to Pawsome Park to celebrate his doggy friend Paddy’s 2nd birthday 😂
Lovely hour catching up and Nelson conquering his first slide 😂🛝🙌🏻
The only baby I need 😉😂
Happy Mother’s Day to all the fur baby M**s out there. Hope you’ve all been spoilt rotten with licks and cuddles (from the dogs!) 🐶 🧡 🫶🏻 🐾
❌📣 Improtant update! 📣❌
Nelson’s House is currently closed to new clients for the foreseeable. (If you have messaged me recently for dog meet and greets - these are still on).
Due to some forever changing circumstances, I’m having to closely monitor my bookings more than ever before, and want to make sure my regulars have availability for ad hoc visits. I also don’t want to have to let people down.
I’m fully booked as much as I can be for the peak holidays anyway.
I’ll let people know when I’m back open for new doggos. Thanks again for trusting me so much with your furries! 🐶 🐾 🧡
🐶 🔔 Nelson’s House Update 🔔 🏠
Pleased to say that Nelson’s House has been successful in gaining our boarding licence renewal and are licensed again for 2 more years 🤘🏻🙌🏻 🐶
2024 is very near being closed for bookings so please get in touch to see if I can slot you in.
2024 sees us specialising in Doodle breeds, but do not let that put you off enquiring- and don’t forget I have a resident cat! 🐈⬛ (important info!)
Thank you for all your support in my first year, and for letting me look after your wonderful pooches
🥰🐶 🐾 Linda, Nelson and Dainty (The cat!)xx
Happy New Year to all our friends and followers. Everyone at Nelson’s House would like to say a massive thank you for making the first year of NH the success it has been.
I think I have had in a bunch of little posers! 🙌🏻
Can’t wait to see you all your doggies for licks and cuddles in 2024 - see you all soon! 🐶 🐾 🫶🏻 🦴
Hugo has come to stay for a couple of days whilst his pawrents go away for a very special event!
This afternoon we spent an hour at a VERY wet and muddy Fetch 'n' Stretch. Now chilling with the fire on amidst lots of blankets getting dry and warm.
All at Nelson’s House would just like to say a massive Merry Christmas to everyone. We hope you’ve had a lovely day, and continue to enjoy the rest of your festive season. Nelson has had a wonderful day full of turkey and treats - and is now zonked on the sofa xx 🤶🏻 🎅🏻 🐶 🐾
Oh - and thanks for all the cards and presents! Totally unexpected and well received. You guys are the best xx
This is a great idea for a Christmas present for a furry friend or a stocking filler. (I’m not on commission, I promise)
I use this field regularly for boarding dogs who are new or not comfortable off lead.
It allows me that sense of security to bond with the dogs off leash and get them to trust me.
It’s a lovely enclosed space, huge enough to get a proper run around and comes with agility for your dogs to play on. Even a shelter for when it rains!
If you are trying to reach me via messanger, I think you need to like or follow my page for me to be able to reply - this is not a plug 😂😆
Either that or maybe check your settings to see if pages can reply to you?
I’ve had 2 messages yesterday which say I can’t reply as they aren’t on messanger (even tho they messaged me on messanger 🤷🏼♀️)
Any ideas anyone?
Chloe and Nathan - I’m not ignoring you but I can’t reply. Please email me at [email protected]
🐶 🚨 An important update 🚨 🐶
I can’t believe it’s time for me to start the process of my licence renewal - time to reflect and focus on what Nelson’s House is going to look like in 2024!
I’m afraid I’m having to increase my prices for next year, costs of insurance, energy (washing towels and blankets, and keeping your dogs warm) have all increased. I also underestimated just how much work is involved before, during and after the visits (meet and greets, house visits, house leaves and cleaning - mud (my poor car!))
When I started out I set my prices fairly low as I was learning as I went, so it might seem quite a jump.
From now on my prices will be as follows:
£35 boarding per 24 hours
£20 day care per 10 hours
Please note that (for example) if you drop off at 9am and don’t pick up until after 9am the next day you will be charged for boarding + daycare.
I know no one likes a price hike so please do message me if you want to cancel your booking. I’d be sad to lose anyone as all of the dogs I have booked in for next year I absolutely adore, but I will understand.
Please rest assured that I will be maintaining my high standards of love and care for your dogs.
I won’t be taking on as many dogs next year and so I can be more flexible for my regulars, as I understand that circumstances change (and I hate having to say no!)
I will continue to only ever board dogs from the same family, unless agreement from all dogs and owners concerned is reached, and this will only ever be for day care for one dog, or an overlapping stay. This means your dog has my whole attention while they stay.
During their stay, pupdates, dog walks and hugs are free!!
Thank you for reading and for making Nelson’s House the success it has been, and I hope to see you all again / at some point next year 🤞🏻
Linda and Nelson 🐶 🏠 🐾
Comfy there, son? I think Nelson enjoyed his lie in this morning.
Been a bit quiet here of late. A bout of the flu virus will do that to you!
A change in my role at work (OK, a promotion 😉☺️) means there will be a few changes to Nelson’s House in the new year. I will post later when I figure some things out - DON’T worry, all your current bookings are safe!
Fully booked for the rest of 2023 tho - aside from some last minute short stays for returning doggos. So please do message if you need to. 🐶 🐾 🦴 🏠
That’s Luna off home, gonna miss her - she was a delight to care for. Lots of Luna snuggles.
A bit of Nelson time before we go again at the weekend with a trial overnight for 2 adorable Cockapoos 🥰 🐶 🐾
This. Along with play fighting and wet zoomies = a cracking day of entertainment 😂🥰💙🥰
Luna is in the middle of a short stay and Penny popped in for some day care. 3 Cockapoos is 🤯
but they got on so well and have never stopped.
Managed to find EVERY little bit of water in my garden to play in 🙈
Was worth it for the sleepy snuggles once they gave in to some rest!!
Videos to follow!
🐶💙🐶🩷🐶🩷🐾
Took Nelson on his first proper mountain walk up the Old Man of Coniston. I think I broke him.
It was TORRENTIAL rain and wind at the top. He did so well with angel like behaviour 🐾🐾 🐶 ⛰️🏕️
That’s it! ‘Summer’ season at Nelson’s House has come to a close. Our last long term guest has left us this morning after being here for a week - happy little Harper, such a sweetie, hopefully she’ll be back soon.
No more long term stays available for 2023 and very limited short term stays.
Nelson and I are taking some time for ourselves, which involves a wee upcoming camping trip.
I’ll be in touch with whose who need house visits in the next few days, for now it’s time to chill 😎
for making our first summer such fun 🤩 🐶🫶🏻🐾

Winnie has arrived for her holidays, and where is best to take her for the first walk?! Fetch 'n' Stretch of course! This allows her to be off the lead and builds trust between us that I’m nice enough to let her off and she knows to come back to me. The dogs also get a good run/bounce about to create bonds 🐶🐶 I am definitely going to recommend this for all my doggy guests. I’m sure we’ll be back sometime this week 😂
Mikey loved his first trip to Fetch 'n' Stretch Benji is all about the ball 😂⚽️ #cousins #BestBuds 🐶🐶🐶🥰
