“Nicolas is absolutely fantastic!!! Just recently moved to the area and needed help with walking Mick and Abby while at work. As being new to the app and the dog walking services I reached out to Nicolas based on his previous reviews! He immediately texted me back and we did the meet and greet. Both of my pups took a liking to him from the beginning! Nicolas is absolutely wonderful with them, he is always on time and is great at communicating with us!!!

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician who has worked in the animal welfare field for more than 20 years. I am the go to pet sitter for friends and family as I treat your pet as if it was my own. I am a responsible adult who follows instructions and understands the importance of communication while you are away from your pet! I work from home so am available to take your dog on walks, check in on pets as needed, or host animals in my home. I have two very friendly dogs and 2 cats who are happy to share their home with other pets. I take my dogs for at least one long off leash hike daily and happy to do so for your pet as well. I have a fully fenced yard for dogs to romp in and also happy to go for leashed or unleashed (once they know me) walks. I am happy to give medications to pets and am a licensed veterinary technician so familiar with most meds.
About: For the last 40+ years I've been caring for my (and others) pets. I've had dogs, cats, horses, birds, ferrets, rats, etc... Animals love calm gentle people. That's me! I have lots of experience with giving meds, grooming, feeding, and handling all types/ages of pets. Unless an animal is actually attacking me, I am never harsh with them. You can count on me to be respectful and gentle with your furbabies. I am currently working part-time so I have lots of extra time to care for your pets. I prefer not to drive after dark if possible. Respect and details matter. I will always respect your home and property. It can be scary to let someone take care of your pets. I understand. I'll always double-check to make sure everything is done right, and that the gate is closed behind me! :-)
About: I have taken care of animals (horses, chickens, cats, dogs, fish, alpacas, pigs, etc.) at multiple houses and farms. I was always the one people would turn to when it came to taking care of their household of animals when they were away. I am in the process of becoming a dog trainer as well as groomer! I've had experience with giving animals shots, pills and liquid medication as well as care after surgeries. Since I am self employed that gives me more open time to play, walk and care for the animals. Currently I own 2 cats and 2 dogs that live with me, I will need a few times a day to let them out a couple times a day. In my home I have a dedicated animal room that has beds, crates, a dog couch, lots of sunlight and a deck for the dogs to hang out on. I also have a pen that I can use if there are dogs or puppies that cannot hold their bladder and have frequent accidents. Blankets and toys galore for the dogs anytime they need them. There is a large yard for the dogs to roam around in or hiking areas for us to walk on. In your home I will make sure to take care of your lovely pet as I would with any of mine! Cuddles and snuggles as well as springs and tug-of-war, whatever activity the animals need to get their energy out as well as keeping them feeling safe and happy. The directions given to me from you will be taken to heart. Feeding, walking and sleeping schedules will be upheld to a T.
About: Ive been an animal lover since I was a child. Making friends with all the pets on my street. Bring home strays I find. Animals feel naturally comfortable with me and can sense my gentle spirit. I can make the most anxious pet feel loved and safe. I have house sit for my coworkers and bosses. To trust me with your pet would be like trusting me with your child. And I treat them just like one of my own. I am looking forward to meeting your pet and making them feel loved and safe. I am a stay at home mom of two girls that are natural animal lovers too. They are middle school and highschool age. They have a gentle caring spirit with animals too. Just like their mom. I take my dog to the park twice a day to walk or play in the dog park. I have partially fenced in back yard with plenty of acres to run or explore on leash. I live on a dead end road in the country with less traffic. My house has always been pet friendly and pets can cuddle with me or my children on the beds and sofa. They are family like us and have free range. For cats I have a door I can keep shut to the living room so they can be safe and still have plenty of room to explore or find soft comfortable hiding spaces. I currently own one dog who is friendly with all other pets but if the other pet feels uncomfortable I have plenty of space to keep separate. I also own two cats that come in and out through their own special area that's all theirs. I have two children that are older and know how to interact gently with animals and love to spoil them. I go to the dog park daily with my dog and enjoy walking with her in the park. Your pet will get plenty of attention, activities and exercise while being in a safe environment.

As someone that has every pet but a dog of her own and has always wanted one, I will completely take advantage of the time I get with yours! I am comfortable with whatever is in need feeding, walks, backyard play, even just hanging out at the house and keeping your animal company! I have experience with a wide range of animals and I will make sure your needs are met! I am so excited and looking forward to meeting you and your sweet fur baby!
