I love animals more than people!
Pet care experience
I have had exposure to animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up I had cats in my household at all times so I am incredibly familiar with to care for them. I currently own 2 large breed dogs, one is Alaskan Malamute/German Shepherd and the other is Siberian Husky/Chow Chow, who I treat as if they were my own kids. When I am not at work I spend a lot of my time hanging out with my dogs. I am very active so I love taking them walking, hiking or exploring new trails and places. I have taken care of dogs and cats on and off over many years. It began with friends and family asking me to care for their pets while they were on vacation and I happily agreed. I did both drop ins as well as stay over in their home to care for their pets. I have worked with animals of all sizes from large breed, medium breed, and small dogs. I am open to ALL breeds of dogs as long as they are dog friendly. I am also very familiar with cats as well. My dogs love having playmates so I enjoy having new dogs in the house to care for. I care for all animals as if they were my own. I will send daily updates with pictures as well. Your animal will be welcomed into a loving and fun environment if they stay with us.
Reviews
Penny is always happy to stay with Nichole when we travel!
Penny enjoyed her time with Nichole. Nichole was also flexible in letting me pick Penny up early, which was really helpful. Will definitely go to Nichole again.
Nichole was very personable and kept me updated with pictures and how the doggies were doing. I would definitely recommend her!
Nichole was great with Maebel! Her dogs were very friendly and settled in with my dog easily. She was welcoming and had a nice backyard for the doggos to play in. Nichole sent pictures and responded quickly. I will definitely use her again if we are in the Charleston area!

Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets as if they were truly my own. I am able to board pets within my home and can give them 100% attention at all times. If they need to be taken to the vet for an emergency or a grooming appointment I am more then willing to take them. They will quickly get tired out from playing with my two dogs as well. If needed, I can also separate them from time to time if they need a break or during feeding times. I will make sure I follow any feeding schedule they are on, take them on walks, and play with them during the day. Safety is also a number one concern and I will always monitor the dogs playing as well as keep them separated if I need to leave the home to run errands. I try to be their home away from home and shower them with the same love you would.

A typical day
I love taking dogs on walks or going out and exploring new areas and trails. I can play with them in my fenced in yard as well. I also have a couple of mental stimulation activities like snuffle mats and puzzles.

Availability
As a teacher during the school year I do work M-F from 7am-3pm but I can give your pet the attention it needs once I am home from work. During the summer my availability is way more open. I am free M-F at any time of day. When there are breaks I have open availability M-F anytime as well. I can board within my own home or I can do drop ins every few hours, I am also willing to stop by and walk your dog. I have a fenced in yard where they can have the freedom to play and run around!
