Dog lover, Open Availability

Pet care experience

Certified vet assistant. Previous dog groomer. And past experience at a doggy daycare. Animal CPR Certified. Very big on animal playtime and giving them the affection they need. Caring for animals is my passion! I have a rescued pitty named Bubba at home! He’s great with other animals of all sizes! I also have a cat named Moose. I also have 3 rats Kirby Moe and Pocket that I raised since they were little pinkies! Im good when it comes to dog training and am willing to train your dog free of charge if you ever so graciously choose me to be your dog walker. I also do free doggy baths. And brushouts if requested. This is something I love doing and wanted to do it since I was a child. Can’t wait to here from you and meet your doggos and/or other animals

Nicholas was a pleasure to work with and has a great way with dogs. He watched my very active puppy, whose energy can be very trying, and he handled him professionally and compassionately. I would definitely recommend Nicholas.

Nick is by far the BEST sitter we’ve had for our golden doodles! We came for a meet and greet and he had us all walk together to get them accustomed to another dog he was boarding. It helped to calm my puppies, too. We went into his fenced in backyard and the dogs all ran around and played. When we dropped them off the next day for their stay, they remembered the day before and started to play right away. We felt so comfortable leaving them in Nick’s care. He’s so loving, knowledgeable, and nurturing. Throughout their stay, Nick would send us photos and updates. Our 7 month old puppy, who normally sleeps in a crate, did not use a crate at Nick’s and did not have one accident in the house! We were shocked to hear. Nick gives them lots of exercise each day. We will most definitely have our pups stay with Nick again. Highly recommend!!

A typical day
