Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run and play. I have a Goldendoodle named Charlie who is everybody’s friend and loves both play time and snuggling. I have hard wood floors, but also runners all over the place for those pets who are a little uneasy on slippery surfaces. I have multiple sized kennels and food/water bowls (some raised bowls as well) so you won’t need to pack up yours. If you would like to pack a comfort item such a blanket or stuffed animal/toy, feel free! I have a TV for dogs as well as an echo show so they can watch their favorite shows as well listen to calming music while going to sleep.

Information Nichole U. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any allergies, or specific treats they like, please let me know ahead of time so I can have the house stocked for them! I make dog treats and cakes, so I would love to have something they will like!

A typical day

Your pets vacation is my pleasure to host! They will have plenty of time playing outside in my fenced in backyard that has kiddie pools for hot weather days and plenty of toys. Mind stimulation is very important for pups, so I enjoy doing some training with them and love watching them learn new things! I enjoy making homemade healthy treats and cakes for pets, so they will definitely be able to lick the batter before trying them! They will get all the love and snuggles on the furniture!

Vet tech here to care for your pets

Pet care experience

I’m a licensed veterinary technician who has many years of experience caring for animals of all kinds! I’ve worked in general medicine, emergency medicine as well as neurology. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and abilities/disabilities. I help train puppies and give them extensive brain stimulation as well as agility. Your senior pets will be comfortable on my couch or bed or laying near the fireplace. If medications need to be administered, I can do them all. If requested, I can do basic grooming, anal gland expressions, baths, nail trims, teeth brushing and ear cleaning!

Our Dog had a great time with Nicole! She made his first time at a doggy daycare very smooth and care free!

Great communication and clearly great with dogs. We had our older dog and our young dog who had never been left with someone before and both did great with her.

I have a 3 month old boxer i just got and needed a babysitter. After his first day at Nichole's I could tell he had a blast..I ended booking daycare too with her for my 6 month old boxer too. Apollo and Ares both went together and didnt make it half the yard till I let the leashes go and they sprinted in the house..that never happened to me before so that really tells me they love it there. Its nice knowing Nichole is really responsible and attentive to all her doggies. I ended up booking an entire week for them both to go back and have another week of nothing but fun
