17. Nicole S.
About: I have owned and cared for dogs of a variety of breeds for the past 25 years, including Miniature Pinschers, Toy Fox Terriers, Shih Tzus, Pomeranians, Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Great Danes, King Charles Cavalier Spaniels, Brittany Spaniels, and Dalmatians. I am an avid runner and will run up to 5k with your dog if you have a high energy dog that will benefit from this service. I work from home (writer, editor, educator), so I have a flexible schedule to accommodate the pet care needs of my clients. I am available for morning, midday, afternoon, and early evening dog walking and feeding. As a lifelong dog owner and lover, I treat my clients' dogs with the same kindness and dignity that I treat my own. For boarding, I have a fenced in backyard to allow for unleashed playtime. I have space to accommodate a dog's crate in my home. I will also allot time throughout the day for uncrated time indoors. I am happy to send photos and videos of your dog to document the dog's time with me. I typically send at least 1 photo per day and no more than 2 so not to overwhelm you with messages. If you would like to receive more communication than this in a single day, please bring this to my attention when you are booking or delivering your pet.
