Flexible days, walks/runs/sitting

Pet care experience

I have always had dogs in my family for as long as I can remember. I have the most experience with medium- large dogs such as Golden Retrievers, Border Collies, and Wheaten Terrirers. I have been responsible for feeding, training, walking, and playing with my dogs. I am a full-time nurse in the Boston area but I often have 2-3 days off at a time if not more! When dog sitting, I enjoying playing with the dog, taking them for walks or runs (depending on their need), and just hanging out and cuddling with them. If the dog needs some training help, I am experienced with that too. As I do work full time, shorter stay requests of less than 3 days are usually best so that I can have my undivided attention on your pup. I'm love working with Rover because I love interacting with such sweet and affectionate animals!

Nicole is a conscientious and caring person whose attention to detail makes her an excellent dog caregiver. Dog personalities and needs are just as varied as humans' are, and Nicole's primary work as a nurse gives her a special insight into how to respectfully and compassionately meet this diversity of needs. Having known Nicole for almost 7 years and seeing her interact with her own pets as well as friends' and strangers' pets, I have no doubt that Nicole makes a perfect dog caregiver.

Information Nicole H. would like to know about your pet

I most enjoy medium to large size dogs. I would prefer to know any allergies they have, any particular fears in terms of how they are around people or other dogs, to what extent the dog is trained, and any other quirks about your pup that would make our interaction more successful!
