Welcome to When Nina Met Ellie, your ultimate UK resource for navigating the wonderful world of pet ownership. Nina is a passionate pet parent with over two decades of experience working in the pet industry, and her delightful rescue Cockapoo, Ellie, is a true advocate for ethical and high-quality pet products.
We are dedicated animal welfarists who love helping fellow pet owners make informed choices that benefit their furry family members. Our mission is to provide honest reviews of pet products – from natural dog treats and premium pet food for sensitive stomachs to eco-friendly toys and cruelty-free grooming essentials. We meticulously review services for pets, ensuring that they align with their high standards of animal welfare and sustainability.
We are also your go-to guide for exploring the UK’s best pet-friendly locations and hotels. Based in the beautiful county of Dorset, Nina and Ellie are constantly on the lookout for must-visit destinations, including dog-friendly hotels, charming cafes, stunning beaches, and exciting travel experiences that welcome your four-legged companions. Whether you are planning a scenic countryside walk or a coastal retreat, we showcase the top pet-friendly hotels and destinations for unforgettable adventures.
Ellie, my discerning Cockapoo, loves testing premium pet products and stylish dog accessories. As trusted Amazon Influencers, we share expert product recommendations for pet parents, ensuring every item we feature aligns with our values.
Beyond our comprehensive product and service reviews and exploration of pet-friendly locations, Nina leverages her extensive PR background to offer bespoke pet PR services. We collaborate with ethical pet brands, dog-friendly hotels, and travel companies to develop compelling content and strategic social media campaigns that genuinely connect with their target audience.

A little rescue cockapoo
Best friend to Nina, Ellie loves their days out together, cuddles on the sofa, and posing for selfies!
Ellie may have come from a puppy farm, but she is no ordinary dog and is accustomed to the very best. She is a real little diva, which is reflected in her lifestyle and the products she uses.
About Nina
After working in promotions during her early adult life, Nina has accrued a wealth of experience in PR, and combines it with her 23 years in the pet industry, where she ran a successful pet care business.
Nina has also studied captive wolf behaviour in Whipsnade Animal Park, growing up with a variety of animals, and developed a real passion for pooches!
Extraordinary Experiences
Nina has triumphed over adversity throughout her adult life. She suffered a bad car accident age 21, her husband was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when he was 42, and 6 months later, Nina suffered a brain haemorrhage and very nearly died.
