About: From having dogs and cats of my own, to working in boarding and grooming facilities, and now pursuing my veterinary assistant certification from CC, I have a love for animals that runs deep. I have completed the Dog Gurus online training for Knowing Dogs 101& 201. I have knowledge in dog body language and signs of stress, and I can administer most medications! I’d love to make your pets comfortable and bring you peace of mind! I work part time, but have evenings and most weekends free. If you have a time you need pet care for and can give me 2 weeks notice, I can usually rearrange my schedule to fit what is needed- I’m flexible! I strive to make your pets comfortable, safe, and loved. Feedings, fresh water, medications, walks, mental stimulation, sensory games, and of course cuddles- it is all important and included in my care!

About: I treat every pet like family—tuned in to their needs, quirks, and routines. I have experience with senior pets, puppy training basics, giving meds, and building trust with even the shyest animals. Whether it’s a playful pup or a slow-moving senior, I adjust my care to match their pace and personality. I’m currently in cosmetology school and work part-time as a lifeguard, but I’m on summer break for the next two weeks and fully available for pet sitting! I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely love caring for animals—especially cats. Whether it’s meds, playtime, or keeping things clean, I’ve got it covered. In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine—feeding, walks, playtime, meds, and lots of affection, all in the space they know best. I keep things clean, calm, and stress-free while respecting your home like it’s my own. I send regular updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little girl! My grandma had a doggy day care that I helped out at all growing up with puppies and older dogs! I also worked at vet clinic for a couple years where I learned how to administer insulin and medications to both dogs and cats. As well as, how to properly groom and bathe them. I’ve worked with every type of breed from little to big! My family also grew up on a farm where they bred golden retrievers, doodles, golden doodles, and Yorkshire terriers. In addition to breeding and taking care of puppies they offered dog training as well. I am a stay at home mom, so I am available everyday, all week long! Occasionally I will be gone for appointments here and there, but no long term commitment that would cause me to be away from the home for more than a few hours at a time! I am also in town most all holidays! I have a fenced in yard with a playful golden retriever named Ginger to keep your fur babies company! I have a separated mudroom they can hangout in (it is separated by a baby gate, so they can still be apart of the fun) if they get a little dirty while having too much fun! I can easily crate if needed and have plenty of toys and extra bowls for food or water! I love to make homemade treats for little rewards if they are being good (normally from peanut butter, bananas, and sometimes sweet potatoes too)!

About: I've had the joy of caring for all kinds of pets, from playful pups and curious cats to fish, hamsters, and pets with extra love and care needs. I provide attentive daily care like feeding, gentle grooming, and tidying up, always making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I'm experienced with administering medication and tailoring care to fit each pet's unique personality and needs. I aim to create a safe, happy environment for your furry friend, even when you're away. I work part-time but have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m usually available during the week and happy to help with last-minute needs. Feel free to message me anytime — I’m happy to chat about your pet’s needs! Drop-In Dog Visits: During drop-in visits, I’ll give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’ll make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and safe while you’re away, and I’ll provide updates with pictures so you know how they’re doing. If you’d like, I’m happy to brush your dog’s coat to keep them looking and feeling their best. Dog Walks: For dog walks, I focus on giving your pup a good, energy-burning stroll tailored to their pace and needs. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk, I’ll keep them engaged, safe, and happy every step of the way. I’ll update you with pictures of your furry friend on their adventures. I’m also happy to give their coat a quick brush after the walk if that’s something you want.

About: I grew up on a cattle ranch and have spent my whole entire wonderful life with dogs. I wouldn't have had it any other way. I work a variable part time schedule and can work in just about anything, especially for pets. They are much more fun to see anyway. I will care for pets in a client's home exactly as they would. Whatever they want done is exactly what I will do, no exceptions.

I am available now until early June, please contact me for confirmation on my availability, we can find a time that works for us both. I do have my own pets at home so overnight stays I will need to leave periodically to walk my pup. I enjoy taking pups to the river trails and rotary park. They get some wiggle room to relax and explore nature that way. I have experience with Miniature Aussies, Mountain Curs, Labs, Golden Retrievers and Corgis. I am open to any breed.

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and caregiver, currently sharing my home with three dogs and a cat, including my blind and deaf blue heeler. With years of hands-on experience, I specialize in caring for pets with medical needs and mobility challenges, ensuring they receive the attention and support they deserve. From administering medications to assisting senior pets with movement, I provide reliable and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I’ve raised my own puppy, understand the patience and dedication required for all life stages, and even come prepared with my own shampooer and steam cleaner for quick accident clean-up. Your furry family member will be in responsible and loving hands. References available upon request—I’d love to help care for your pets! I am available for pet sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays with same-day notice at any time. From Monday to Thursday, I work 10-hour shifts and care for my own pets during my lunch break, so I am unavailable throughout the day most weekdays. If you're looking for weekend pet care, I'm happy to accommodate your needs! Walks: Every walk is tailored to your pet’s comfort and pace. I prioritize their safety and well-being, positioning myself between them and any potential stressors we encounter. Waste is always picked up, and I have leads that allow multiple pets to walk safely and comfortably together. In-Home Care: Your pet’s needs are my top priority. Water stays fresh and full, and all food requirements are strictly followed. I understand that every animal has unique attention needs—whether they seek cuddles or prefer their space, I provide respectful and personalized care. No pet will ever feel neglected! Drop-Ins: A potty break is more than just a quick trip outside! I engage with your pet to ensure a meaningful and enriching experience, offering interaction and light exercise to keep them happy and stimulated.

I am able to check on pups in the mornings, afternoons before work, and in the evenings after work. I am also able to stay at your home if needed, my work and school hours would not affect night time care! I also care for 2 of my own Australian Shepherds so I understand how needy our babies can be!

I’m happy to care for your pet however you feel most comfortable. I have no issues administering medication. I’ll do my best to stick to your routine and give your pet some stability!

“Simply put, Nicole was wonderful! She came out the day before we left to learn everything and she did a marvelous job!

We highly recommend her and we will definitely use her again when we head out of town!”

nickalas h.
“Nick has been our go-to pet sitter multiple times, and we couldn't be more grateful for him. Our dogs, cats, and even our fish adore him! He's incredibly kind, attentive, and has a natural way with animals that puts everyone—humans and pets—at ease. We've never once questioned his integrity and trust him completely in our home. Nick consistently goes above and beyond, whether it’s giving extra snuggles, handling unexpected issues with calm professionalism, or sending us adorable updates and photos while we're away. His communication is excellent, and it's clear he genuinely cares about our animals' well-being. Leaving our home and pets can be stressful, but knowing Nick is in charge gives us total peace of mind. We highly recommend him—and so do our furbabies!”
