Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard (xeroscaped), and a playful pup to keep your pup entertained. If. your pup is able I take my pup out by 7:00 - 8:00 AM for a walk to avoid the heat, and hot pavement on their paws. Then in the winter I adjust to midday so it’s a little warmer or if the pups are amendable to coats/sweater I do have them as well.

Nicholas was excellent with my cat. He kept me informed during my time out of town. He was prompt and always showed up.

Schedule

I am currently in school working on my masters in clinical social work. I do not have to work while going to school, so I will have tons of time to care for your precious critters. I am able to drop in or walk pets throughout the day/evening.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Nicholas can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if there are any special accommodations your pet may need. I do not mind if pets are in the bed, and I do have stairs for the bed because of my corgi. If your dog has a cooling jacket, I do keep a bucket water in my vehicle to soak them.
