Pet care experience

I will love your dogs like my own!

I've lived with and taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Starting off in apartments where they needed to be walked. I've had my own dogs for the past 16 years. From puppies to seniors on daily medications, I've taken care of it all with my own doggos. We recently lost our doggy siblings, Tegan and Sara in May and July 2022 at 15.5 years old. We currently have a 6 month old rescue named Oswald. I love all dogs! I do not breed discriminate! I live on 3/4 of an acre with a 5' chain link fence surrounding the back yard. I also work from home, so I'm always here. With your permission, I may even take your pups on adventures while in my care! We do have a cat, but she owns the 2nd floor of our house (2 spare bedrooms), so it will not affect your pups stay as we will stay on the first floor.

Nichole truly loves dogs! She understands and is always responsive to their needs. Your dog will receive lots of love and affection. I highly recommend Nichole for dog sitting!

I have known Nichole for over 10 years. She truly loves her babies and would do anything for them. She is just the type of person who cares deeply for animals. She would treat any pet as her own and if given the chance I would would trust her with my babies 100%. I would have piece of mind knowing they would be in good hands with her compassionate nature.

Nichole is a very loving person, with open arms to all walks of life. For every pet she has owned, Nichole has dedicated herself to giving them the best she possibly could! From coming to understand dietary restrictions and researching the best meals to provide to doting on her senior dogs up until the very end, she has proven countless times how much she values her furry friends. I personally have be able to rely on her to not only pet sit my dog, but other animals such as a bearded dragon, cats, and guinea pigs simultaneously with the utmost of care. (My dog ends up missing her after every pup-cation!) Overall, she is an exemplary pet owner and will be to those on Rover seeking her help!

I cannot say enough great things about Nichole. Her love for animals is immense. The love and care she gives to her fur babies as well as others is top notch. Our crazy busy sassy chocolate lab can be a handful at times and I truly entrust Nichole in the care she provides. She is a true gem and I highly recommend her!

Schedule

I work from home 9-5:30 M-F. Your baby will get to go out whenever needed in my fenced yard and I will give them love in small breaks during my own work day. They will not spend their days in a crate as I am here to keep an eye on them.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard. I do have a very dog and person friendly pup of my own who will be happy to play with your pup, too, as his favorite place is the dog park. We have few stairs that need to be climbed, 1-3 off our deck (we have a few entrances on the deck) that can be adjusted by closing deck doors as needed for seniors.

Pets

A typical day

We love exploring the dog parks, walking in parks or along beaches, play time outside. We also play games in the house to keep the dog mentally stimulated.
