Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets like they are a human. Pets need attention, affection, love and understanding. I will always speak to them in a friendly manner. If I see a pet is sad I will try to talk to it in a friendly voice and make them feel loved. I will never show anger or frustration toward your pet no matter what. I will always tell your pet how good of a boy or girl they are being and give them lots of praise. As long as I am around they will feel love and cared for. I volunteer taking care of horses. These horses require special care and patience so I can certainly handle dogs and cats.

Information Nicholas H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any special needs or requests you have for your pets. I can administer medication and shots if that is needed. If your dog is physically disabled I can help and handle that as well.

A typical day

I love to play around with a dog like throwing a ball or a frisbee. I can also handle a young dog that likes to get rough. For cats I love to play with them and their toys like a piece of string. If they are old don't like to play that's okay too. I will calmly sit with them and pet them.

Your Pet’s New Best Friend!

Pet care experience

I bring a unique background in pet care — from two years of hands-on experience volunteering and caring for rescue horses and cats. I understand how to earn the trust of animals of all temperaments and ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I also just recently spent a summer working with and handling baby sea turtles with Jekyll Island. I grew up with several cats, dogs, ducks, rabbits and reptiles. I've always had a soft spot for all animals since a child. I chose my career for this reason as well. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy rescue, I provide patient, dependable care that treats every pet like family.
