Pet care experience

Dogs just make life better!

I have had a passion for dogs my entire life! When I was 11, I started rescuing strays in my neighborhood and finding them forever homes! At 13, I was running a small dog walking business around my home! I needed to learn more, so I became a certified vet assistant! After working in a clinic I realized I wanted to work more with dogs, so I am working on becoming a certified dog trainer! I’ve done everything from rescuing, fostering, training, bathing, brushing, walking, pet sitting, medical needs, nursing, potty training, baking dog/cat treats, and just having fun raising my own dogs! I would love the opportunity to get your furry family members out during your busy days! I am currently working part time in the mornings at a doggie daycare! I am available to help care for your pets from 10:30am to 9pm, everyday of the week! I am more than happy to come take your furry baby out every 2 hours (less if it is a young puppy or in the process of being housebroken)! If you need someone to come and walk your dogs while your away at work I would love to get them out (if it is not too hot or cold)! If weather is bad, I can still come take dogs out for a quick 5-10 minute potty break, then we play inside to get some exercise, and we will go out one more time before I leave for another 5-10 minutes! I have three friendly dogs that love play dates as well! I currently live in an apartment, so we go on daily runs at the dog park to get some exercise! I can board at my house in an emergency situation and can provide a large kennel run if they need to be crated.

As always Nicole did an amazing job watching over my fur baby! She’s great at communicating and always goes above and beyond to make sure he is well taken care of!

Nichole is the best! She is super caring and compassionate to our cat and dog and always sends photos and updates. We are super grateful for her.

Nichole gave our dogs lots of attention and the house was left just like we left it! Our dogs seemed loved and cared for when we arrived home!

Nikki responded to all of my messages in a timely manner. She came at the times I asked her to, spent more time with the dogs than I expected of her, and her communication was A+. She let me know every time she had just been at the house, gave me updates on the dogs, and attached a ton of pictures with each visit. It’s always stressful to have someone else take care of your dogs, but Nikki took suck good care of them. Will 100% use her again.

If we could give 10 stars, we would! Nichole is an excellent communicator. She sent lots of photos of our pets and filled us in on each days activities. She seems to have a genuine love for our animals and enjoys spending time with them. We felt very safe leaving them with her. Jack and Rosie were very happy when we came home and our house was well looked after and clean. Highly recommend!
