Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for my 9-month-old puppy. Besides being at school, I’m home most of the time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention they need. I genuinely enjoy going on walks, so daily walks, outdoor time, and play sessions are already part of my routine. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in; it’s something I already do consistently, so adding another pet to that routine feels natural and easy for me.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable, and structured environment. I have a fenced yard where they can run and play safely, and I also have my own 9-month-old puppy who is friendly and well-socialized, so your dog would have built-in companionship and playtime. I always supervise interactions to make sure everyone is comfortable and getting along. I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time (if needed), walks, and any training rules you have in place. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I focus on keeping everything as consistent as possible so they feel secure in their own space. I follow your exact instructions, maintain feeding and walking schedules, reinforce training, and ensure they get plenty of attention and exercise. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet.

Information Nickolas T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know in advance if your dog requires any special care or service, and I'll be happy do whatever needs to be done to make sure they're happy and comfortable!

A typical day

I love to be active with dogs outside. I'll play fetch with them, and also have a decent-sized yard, and there's a big field about 10 minutes walking from me that I will bring your dogs to play in!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is that I truly have hands-on experience, not just occasional pet sitting. I currently have a 9-month-old puppy that I’ve raised since she was 3 months old, so I’m very comfortable with routines and handling high energy. I’ve also had two other dogs throughout my life, so I understand different personalities and needs. On top of that, I’ve cared for a variety of other pets like fish, a chinchilla, a baby duck, and a turtle, which makes me detail-oriented and patient. I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away.
