LIFELONG ANIMAL LOVER!
Pet care experience
Some kids had imaginary friends—I had a goat, three dogs, a rooster, and one very sassy mini pony. I grew up on a farm where animals weren’t just part of the background—they were family. My mornings began with crowing roosters, and my days were filled with the joyful chaos of goats, dogs, barn cats, and that famously stubborn pony. From the start, I learned to read body language, respect boundaries, and provide calm, gentle care to creatures big and small. That early connection taught me something lasting: caring for animals isn’t just about feeding or walking—it’s about building trust, noticing the little things, and making each pet feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Whether it’s soothing a nervous dog or giving a quiet cat space to come forward on their own terms, I believe every pet deserves understanding and compassion. Over the years, I’ve only strengthened that bond. I’ve volunteered with the Humane Society, fostered animals in need, and worked professionally in grooming and pet services. Today, I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience and heartfelt care to every animal I meet—offering pet care that’s not just reliable, but deeply personal. Please note: While my full name is Christina, I go by Nicole. Feel free to call me Nicole, and I’m happy to answer any questions you may have! 🐾 NEW CLIENT MEET & GREET Let’s get to know each other—on your pet’s terms. I offer a free 30-minute Meet & Greet before any first-time service to ensure we’re the perfect match. Availability: I’m a FULL TIME SITTER and offer meet-and-greets any day and time of the week, that is open in my schedule. Short-Notice Booking? I offer virtual meet-and-greets via FaceTime for an additional $15 when time is tight. Every pet is different—and that's exactly why I tailor each service to your pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to provide thoughtful, stress-free care that feels like home. What We’ll Cover During Your Meet & Greet • Your pet’s routine & schedule • Behavioral or medical concerns • Socialization needs • Feeding & medication instructions • Key exchange and home access details Please have two (2) sets of keys ready. Return trips for key pickup or follow-ups may incur a fee based on time.

Christina is a true dog lover! Ziggy loved her. She is super competent and organized. We feel so lucky to have found her!
Christina is great! She’s reliable, loves my dog and very responsible. We love her. Jen and Mario
Christina Nicole was so good with our dogs. One can be aggressive but she did wonderful job and even walked both dogs with no issues! She was very communicative and sent beautiful pictures. She took great care of the house as well. Will definitely be rebooking and recommending her to our friends and neighbors!
great connection with my pup! & quick responder! 10/10 for my first dog walker!
