I'm currently working from home out of a pet-friendly apartment that is located around lots of parks and two minutes from M Street Beach. Aside from a few ski and hiking weekends, I am generally available any day of the week.

About Nicky R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a runner, and have run with active dogs in the past. I can offer runs, walks (multiple times a day, if needed), and lots of snuggles. For your convenience, I can drive anywhere in the Boston area to walk your pet, though I would prefer hosting the dog at my apartment if the walks are multiple times per day.
Home
Information Nicky R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, preferences, or distinct behaviors. I don't restrict based on breed, but the dog should be comfortable with males since I live with my partner.
A typical day
In our immediate neighborhood are multiple parks and trails so your pup will never get bored! We welcome dogs to roam throughout the apartment, so they will have plenty of space.

Work-from-home pet lover!
Pet care experience
I am a lifelong animal lover and very active person who enjoys keeping pets happy, healthy, and engaged. I volunteered at an animal shelter for five years, where I learned the best handling and walking techniques, how to give medicine, and how to make every pet feel safe and loved. I have experience with walking, day visits, and overnight sitting, and I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, and even runs if it suits them! I hold a Master’s degree in Fisheries, Animal, and Veterinary Sciences from the University of Rhode Island and have dedicated my career to supporting animal and human well-being. I approach all of my animal care with the same type of respect and love.
Reviews

Nicky has been great for Maisy, she started watching her when she was 4 months old and is very attentive with new training tips to keep my learning puppy on a good routine. Maisy loves her time at Nicky’s!!

Fenny had such a great time! Nicky sent regular updates and lots of pictures which we appreciated

Nicky was incredibly accommodating and made sure to keep me updated throughout the day on how my dog, Miyo, was doing. Would absolutely recommend!

Nicky was fantastic. Very responsive, provided great updates from our dogs day-stay, and our dog clearly loved her. Would absolutely recommend and use again!
