About: 10 years of Veterinary technician experience as well as a degree in veterinary tech from St Pete College. Dog training also available at the local club in Chiefland. Love all ages of dogs AND cats. I recently stepped away from my vet tech job of 10 years to care for my newborn. I have availability almost everyday and several times a day if needed. I have 5 dogs, 1 cat, and sheep that live at my house. I also breed, show, and participate in several sports with my Australian Cattle Dogs. I will not be able to care for client animals at my home due to all the animals. I will most likely bring my infant with me during care at your home but will be mindful in safety for your pet as well as my child.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old love knowing that somebody’s baby has someone to snuggle and play. No matter what. I’m currently a single mom with a huge flexibility work from home open hours. Whenever you need your baby to be watched, I will be available. I can always guarantee there will be lots of snuggles, playtime, proper exercise, diet, and all-around fun. Will always leave pawsitively happy, loved, nurtured, & tired!

About: I have been trained as a vet technician and animal care by the military. I have taken care of animals since childhood, and I believe all animals are part of the family I currently working on my own homestead, and I maintain our family animals and needs on a daily basis. Some may say that they are part of my daily chores, but I do not consider my babies as choirs. I have a fenced in yard. The yard is segmented for separation and safety. I have loving dogs, cats, goats, and chickens. They are able to be in the same areas together with no issues, but my farm is segmented for privacy amongst the animals as well. I feel everyone has their way of loving their babies, and the baby deserves consistency in their normal routines. I find this is most important when missing their human.

“Nicole did a great job house sitting and watching my puppies and older dog. She came over the day before for a meet and greet to make everyone feel comfortable and meet all the dogs. She was flexible with my last minute booking and she was even flexible with me when I was running a little behind on my return home! I felt very comfortable leaving the "crew" with Nicole.”
