Our daily life is structured around the well-being and enrichment of our dog, Dwight. As Nichole has worked remotely for years, our pets receive consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. We are early risers, starting with a morning walk and breakfast at 6:00 AM, followed by frequent outdoor breaks every few hours. We prioritize nutrition and long-term health; Dwight follows a specialized diet of raw food, kibble, and daily supplements (turkey tail, green-lipped mussels, cognitive support, and CBD). Our evenings typically include a long, stimulating walk at Shelby Park. We are also diligent with grooming, providing weekly baths and nail maintenance to ensure they stay clean and comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment

In our own home, our routine is completely centered on our pets—they are never left unattended for long periods. Dwight is always nearby while Nichole works, allowing us to maintain a watchful, attentive environment. We utilize enrichment tools like lick mats, Kongs, and snuffle mats to keep their minds engaged. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we mirror the care we give our own. Every pet’s unique schedule—from feeding times to bathroom breaks—is strictly followed. We are highly experienced in administering complex medications and supplements. We understand that a change in routine can be stressful for animals, so our priority is to provide a calm, affectionate, and predictable environment. We are respectful of your home’s boundaries and will keep you consistently updated so you can travel with complete peace of mind.

Information Nichole N. would like to know about your pet

To provide the safest and most comfortable care, please let us know: Does your pet have any specific health conditions, allergies, or physical limitations we should be aware of? What is their specific medication or supplement regimen? Are there any behavioral triggers, reactivity to other dogs, or separation anxiety issues? What is their preferred daily routine and "personality style"? (e.g., Are they a couch potato, an explorer, or a high-energy player?) Are there any "house rules" regarding furniture access or specific areas of the home that are off-limits?

A typical day

We tailor every activity to the pet’s specific age, health, and energy level. For high-energy pets, we enjoy brisk walks, hiking local trails, or "sniffari" sessions for off-leash exploration in safe areas. For seniors or lower-energy pets, we focus on mental stimulation, using puzzle toys, engaging in gentle indoor play, or simply providing dedicated, calm companionship. We always take the time to learn your pet’s favorite games or toys to ensure they feel happy and engaged while you are away.

An absolute ANGEL. So flexible, honest, communicative, and helped me last minute so many times 😅 My Laila just loves when Nicole drops in, she is so sweet and treats her like her own fur baby! I know she is in such good hands with her!

Nichole was wonderful with our shy old man! I can’t say enough good things about her. This was our first time leaving our guy with someone who wasn’t family, and she made me feel so comfortable. Sent tons of pictures and gave wonderful updates!
