UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND CARE

Pet care experience

You have found a true animal lover in me :) Whether I'm outside hiking or just hanging low around the house, I ALWAYS enjoy the company of a furry friend. My love for animals began from a young age. I can't remember a time growing up when there weren't AT LEAST two dogs (and a cat) in the house! I've cared for many different animals since then - young, old, large, small - and all with such different personalities. In addition to working with Rover for around four years, I spent two years working with Summit Dog Rescue (out of Boulder) as a foster home for rescued dogs, during which time I fostered and adopted out 10 pups. Approval to foster came from an extensive interview process as well as home and reference checks. Fostering has been an awesome part of my life and taught me more about dog behavior, compassion and patience. I would love to help care for your dog(s)/animal(s) while you're away and give you a peace of mind knowing that they're in good hands. I have one VERY sweet dog, Millie, who will be with me during stays - she has been such a great friend to so many different pooches, but a meet and greet between the dogs would be best before the stay. I can't wait to hear from you! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all my life! I was raised with dogs and since I've left home, I've had plenty of experience helping friends and family care fore their pets. Also, more recently I've been volunteering with Summit Dog Rescue as a foster home. It's been a great experience, and I've fostered 10 wonderful dogs for them. Meet my pets Millie is my 6 yr old Novia Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever mix. She is an absolute angel and is great with other dogs. She is mellow in the house, well behaved, completely potty trained and not aggressive at all.

Nicki was great ? After reading Nicki’s profile and searching for the best fit, we choose Nicki to check on our 6 month old kittens. Our fur babies are our kids! She clearly is an animal lover, when we met all the animals came to her. She is gentle, kind and mature. We felt safe that our babies were in good hands! ? Go with Nicki, you won’t be disappointed ☺️

Nicki was awesome! She really loves animals and that shows through in her care. She is very experienced in handling all types and behaviors of dogs. Her dog, Millie, is adorable, and my dog, Zuzu, really enjoyed having her as a playmate. They went on hikes, runs, beach outings, and walks. Nicki sent me daily updates, and I could tell by the pictures she regularly sent that Zuzu was having a great time. Nicki provided excellent care, and I will definitely be using her services again. She stayed late at my house with Zuzu until we landed at the airport to make sure that we had not been delayed. The house was cleaner than I left it, Zuzu was happy, and Nicki turned out to be the best dog sitter I have ever had!

Nicki is just the best! My dog, who is not so easy to win over, absolutely adores her and her dog Millie. She has a real way with animals. I feel totally comfortable leaving the country with my house and beloved dog in her care.

Information Nicki E. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting a dog I would just like to know some basic information - do they need any special attention, do they do well walking on their leash, can they be aggressive and do they interact well with other dogs (since I will most likely have a foster buddy with me at the time).

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog As much as I can! When I'm dog sitting for you, that will be my number one priority and hopefully I won't have to leave the dog(s) for more than a few hours at most.
