Raised huskies so I know crazy

Nicholas did a great job boarding my high energy border collie! He is communicative and trustworthy – would book with him again!

Nick was great. Sent us regular updates and was very flexible with pickups and drop-offs. Duncan clearly had a great time.

Nicholas loves all animals but dogs most of all. Growing up Nick always had a number of pets (cats, lizards, rats...) but most of all huskies. Even as a child he was very responsible and caring with his animals. He is very experienced taking care of small as well as large (sometimes unruly) dogs. Always gentle and always kind. His idea of a perfect date is to go see husky puppies!

Nick is THE dog guy & your dog’s new BFF! Not sure I’ve ever met someone more excited about any and every single dog he encounters. No matter the time or place, he will always pause what he’s doing to greet every pup with the biggest smile and “dog voice” and immediately match their energy. If you’re looking for someone who is not only going to ensure he takes good care of your pup but also give them some great playtime and love, Nick is your guy.

Schedule

I work from home most days of the week, and if I do go into the office, I can be home from work within 5 min so it’s easy to do multiple walks throughout the day, with a long one by the water and beach after work.

Safety, trust & environment

Let me know if there are certain rules you’d like your animal to live by at my place like not being on the furniture so I won’t instill any bad habits.

A typical day

Live by the beach and park where they can get lots of exercise either off leash or on depending on how they behave. Spend a lot of time at home so they’ll have lots of company.
