Nicole's Dog/Animal Sitting Daycare
Pet care experience
I am an experienced dog owner of over 10 years! I have primarily worked with an extra-large dog that suffered from separation anxiety, a mistrust in adult men, and aggression towards children/other animals. In other words, I have dealt with arguably the worst combination of traits seen in an animal. That being said, I have never loved anything as much as him. He has taught me to be patient and understanding and I strive to work with more stray adoption cases. I also realize that most other dog owners have it much easier than I had it, which allows me to come prepared to deal with a variety of different cases. I live in a fully-detached house in Acton that is centred in a quiet neighbourhood and love showing affection by taking them out of the house to experience the outdoors. If your dog is hesitant or aggressive to other animals, I choose to walk around the neighbourhood, off of the main road where it is quieter to roam. My home is relatively quiet, with just one other adult living in the home. The house is never loud and is kept clean. There is always at least one other person home, making the house feel occupied and never vacant. I don't personally use crates/barriers to keep dogs out of certain areas but if you request that you would like that and can provide me with the necessary items, I am happy to comply. The only restrictions I have is that I would like to work with dogs that are potty-trained and that don't bite. Overall, I am just a huge dog-lover who wants to be surrounded with the positive energy that they bring and I hope to brighten their day any way possible. I would be honoured to take care of your little pup!
Reviews
This was our puppy’s first time in a home care setting. We where nervous, as she is only 6mths old, but Nicole quickly put our minds at ease. She sent pictures to let us know she was ok. Would definitely send her back to Nicole for another visit. Nicole was so patient and our girl Calli was calm and a happy girl. Thank you again Nicole
It is clear that Nicole and her Mom just love dogs by the way they greeted us when we arrived. The dogs were allowed to roam around and discover their new environment. Nicole asked lots of good questions to get to know our dogs better. There was good text communication while we were away, as well as a picture. The dogs were well treated with lots of hugs and walks.
Our Mini Schnauzer Bella loves staying with Nicole. When we picked her up after our recent vacation she was so excited to see us but she did not want to leave Nicole's home. She was so loved and cared for while with Nicole, I would definitely recommend Nicole to anyone nervous about leaving their fur baby while away.
Pluto seems to have really enjoyed his stay. Thanks so much for the last minute accommodations. Would definitely recommend. Cheers, Anthony & Brianna
