Pet care experience

Experienced dog walker/sitter

I have rescued dogs for 25+ years. I have rescued Rottweilers, Cane Corso, Hound mix, and Lab mixes. I am well versed on handling large, reactive dogs. My dogs always get walked twice/day for 2-3 miles, regardless of weather. I have also taken care of friends and neighbors dogs, everything from French Mastiffs to chihuahuas. Because I sometimes have damaged/reactive dogs, I take walks very seriously and stay very alert to avoid issues.

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs get free rein of the downstairs, I do not let them on furniture, however. Despite living in the city, I have a large fenced backyard that I let the dogs out to run around whenever they want, though they always get walked twice a day as well

Nick is one of the best pet parents I know! His own dogs (fur children) are always so happy and treated so well. Nick's kind approach and calm nature allows for him to connect easily with all animals. You and your pets will be able to sense his true animal lover heart the first time you meet him!

I am thrilled to provide a reference for Nick as an exceptional dog sitter. I’ve known Nick personally for over 10yrs and can attest to his reliability, responsibility, and genuine love for animals. He has cared for our dog at his home when we were on vacation and the experience was truly wonderful. Knowing our pet was in such capable and trusted hands gave us complete peace of mind. (Now, when Daisy sees him she runs to him!) Nick provides a safe, caring and comfortable environment and we wholeheartedly recommend him to any pet owner.

I have experience with large, energetic, reactive dogs, and feel confident handling any breed, and it’s always helpful to know if a dog has any certain triggers or fears ahead of time
