Safety, trust & environment

At home I have two cats, three dogs, and a gecko. I make sure everyone is walked, litter is scooped and or replaced, and the tank for my gecko is misted and lights are turned on. Once everyone is fed I finish getting my children and myself ready for the day and drop them off at school. I head back home to walk everyone once more and spend some time playing with them. At night they are fed, walked, and cleaned if their area needs it.

Information Nichole J. would like to know about your pet

It is very important to know if the dog has any allergies, past medical injuries that may limit movement or ability to walk for too long. Medication is extremely important to review with the owners and become familiar with before sitting a pet. Other things that are just as important are knowing if the pet is dog/cat friendly, if the pet does not do well with specific genders or ages, if there are special walking tools needed before heading out for a walk (like a gentle lead), and if the pet has any diet restrictions.

A typical day

Based on owners preference I would take dogs to dog parks or dog beach. If the owner preferred that we do not go to large groups with Luther dogs, I would find a dog friendly trail that is fitted to the pets ability to walk through. At home, I like to give the pet lots of attention by playing doggie puzzles or with their favorite toy!

Vet Tech, Vet Med, loves animals

Pet care experience

Since I was around 13 I have helped walk, bath, feed, and even deliver litters (dogs and cats) for family and friends. Currently I am working as an er vet tech and am in school for my RVT, and eventually becoming a veterinarian. I have experience handling and caring for many types of animals that have been both my own pets and friends pets. These pets include rabbits, guinea pigs, geckos, snakes, and of course cats and dogs.

Nichole is friendly and communicated good from the time I inquired for her service in such a ahort notice. My babies seemed to be comfortable and adapted fairly well with her. I liked the updates and photos sent. I especially like the fact that she is a vet tech and has a background on how to take good care of my four-legged babies.

Nichole was amazing! We needed her last minute to go two days in a row. She even FaceTimed the night before hand to meet quickly and go over details late at night. Kova loved her and was so happy! She even brought her a toy to play with. 10/10 would recommend (:
