Pet care experience

I’ll be your pets temporary family!

Having grown up around canines all my life, I have learned to love them dearly. I don't think there was ever even one year of my childhood I spent without a canine companion. I will go above and beyond for any animal under my care. I am available ANY time. I honestly am looking to surround myself with a stable, natural, healthy environment, and I could not think of any better opportunity other than this. It fits really easy. I am a full time worker, but I work from home, so I can still take care of all your pets needs! As far as care, I will remain with the schedule you have at home so they don’t have to get used to anything new. If you allow them on furniture, then they will be able to sleep wherever they please.

Dog Walking • May 18, 2026

Nicholas arrived with the confidence and ease of someone who has been walking our dogs forever. He was kind, professional, and immediately made a great first impression. Best of all, the dogs went right to him, greeted him warmly, and happily left with him—leaving me just a tiny bit jealous for a moment 😊. But honestly, that only reassured me they were comfortable and in good hands. I’m so glad we found him, and even more glad that he actually showed up as promised. I’m truly impressed, and the dogs already seem to be waiting for his return next week. Color us happy! 😊

Nicholas helped take care of our dogs when we were out of town for a few days. He was easy to coordinate with and sent pictures of the dogs. I also appreciated that he was conscientious about making sure the house was okay too!

Boarding • Mar 26, 2026

Was in town for the weekend and my dog couldn’t stay with me at my hotel but it was fine because she was in great hands with Nicholas!! She is an Akita and she is a rescue so that can be a lot to handle but not for him: he even got her to socialize with his dog. So much so, that when I went to pick her up, they were still busy chasing each other around. Anyone who has dealt with a difficult breed or a rescue knows how much time is needed and I’m grateful!!Thanks again for helping out!

Nick is very conscientious and provides updates on how the pets are doing. He went above and beyond to see that we returned during hazardous snowy conditions before he left the pets. He’s terrific!

Nick is a conscientious, caring and playful pet caregiver. He was very communicative while he looked after our little ones and provided updates on their behavior including pictures that reassured us. He cleaned up after the pets so I returned home as I left it. I highly recommend Nick who is a trustworthy and kind person.
