I will love them as my own! 🐶

Pet care experience

Dogs are just so important to our lives, and definitely change us for the better. They give us so much, so I’ve always wanted the chance to give back to them too! That’s why sitting is a dream come true for me. When I rescued my dog, Khaleesi, about 9 years ago, she helped me out so much and has definitely been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I want to make sure that all dogs have the love and care they need to thrive! In addition to being a dog lover, I’ve had plenty of experience as a dog owner as well. I had two Schnauzers growing up, that were puppies I helped raise. My sister has 3 dogs (all different sizes and personalities from 8-85lbs). I have helped care for and raise them for the 8 years she has had them. I am fluent in training, elderly dogs, administering meds and very active pups and puppies, spa baths, nail trims (Dremel), ear cleaning, teeth brushing, ect… I will take extended walks and love and snuggle them as they are my own. I love spending time with them! I’ve also been the go-to sitter for friends and family when it comes to watching their pets. I’ve always loved taking care of animals and would love to make my extended family larger. I currently work at a doggie daycare as a manager since Jan 6th 2020 but unfortunately, the pandemic is finally taking its toll. I look forward to meeting you and your fur children. Have a beautiful day! When taking on a new client, I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet to make sure that we’re all a good fit for another. Plus, I just love to meet new pups! Your pooch and I will become quick friends when they come over to me. I always let them come to me first, and want to get to know them at their pace. I love to ask a lot of questions, so a meet is the perfect opportunity to chat face-to-face about providing excellent care to you and your best friend. I have been in the business of customer service for over 10 years, so my number one priority is making you and your pooch feel completely comfortable and well taken care of. I want you to be happy and comfortable with the services I provide, and I’m always happy to go the extra mile to make that happen as well. I will always have an open line of communication and take tons of pictures of the fun we are having! I’m very detail-oriented and will follow any instructions that you give me to a “T”!

Nichole is the best! We have had her house sit with our American Staffy several times. She takes great care of our pup, leaves the house spotless and sends updates along the way. We love having her!

We are so happy to have found Nichole! She is very caring and reliable. Our cat, Mel, has really taken to her. I definitely recommend her as a pet sitter.

Benji and Ellie loved Nichole as did the rest of my family. We loved receiving pictures of our fur babies while we were gone. I would highly recommend Nichole as she is very dependable and we trusted her in our house while we were gone.

Information Nichole S. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: I would like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay. What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? Where? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

Ultimately, I just want to know what your dog likes to do. When they’re with me, the world is their oyster and I am happy to tailor our time to their needs! I love to stay active, so your pup will be right at home with me if they enjoy getting lots of exercise. I typically like to head to the areas that your pup is most comfortable with so they don’t get anxious about going somewhere new. Regardless, however, we’ll make sure to make the most of our time by always having tons of fun! I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I get my schedule three weeks in advance and update my calendars accordingly.
