Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Nick! My wife Katie and I have owned dogs all of our lives. We ran a full-time dog sitting business while I was earning my Master's several years ago, where we consistently got 5 star reviews from our clients! I am currently working full time as is my wife (who is a teacher) but I remote work in the afternoons and have flexibility to do drop in visits throughout the week and we can do boardings all week long as well. We have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. We would love to have the opportunity to give your pet the best care in the comfort of their home or in ours! We are willing to work with any special requests you may have, and are happy to accommodate whatever your dog's needs may be. Hope to meet your furry friend (or friends) soon!

Nick was an amazing sitter for my dog. My dog is a senior and he made me feel comfortable leaving her in his care. He sent me picture updates throughout the day. It helped me feel at ease that she was adjusting and having a great time. I knew she was was in great hands. I would use Nick again!

They did an awesome job watching my 2 dogs for the week while we were out of town. When we picked up the dogs they were happy and tired 🙂 We will be looking to book them again when we go on vacation again.

Nick is great. My dog eats in his house, which shows he is comfortable because he stops eating for any reason. He comes back tired because of all the stimuli and good walks he gets.

Bernice had a great stay with Nick and Katie! She came home happy and tired which are the two best things for a pup! Nick was great with updates and pics during her stay and very flexible with pickup and drop off which we appreciated! Will definitely reach out for future stays!

Information Nick O. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, I love all dogs. I would want to know what commands they know and how to give them, what treats they love, when to feed them and what to feed them, where they sleep, etc their habits and routines basically.
