Pet care experience
Adventurous Dog Care with Tail-Wag
Hi, my name is Nico Dillman. I’m a graduate student studying GIS and currently living in Lafayette Hill, PA, while looking for a full-time position. I have extensive experience in animal care, handling, and administering medications from working at the pet humane society in Incline Village, where I loved seeing animals find great homes. I recently paused that role to focus on my graduate classes as well as my final capstone project. When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, skiing, running, playing soccer or lacrosse. Let me help keep your furry friends happy and cared for!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in Lafayette Hill, PA, and while I’m unable to host dogs in my home, I have extensive experience caring for pets in their homes and at shelters. My background includes animal handling, enrichment, medication administration, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in any environment. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, whether I’m in your home, out on a walk, or spending time with them during visits.
Ratings and reviews
Nico was fantastic!
Nico is amazing a true dog whisperer. We have two sweet girls but one has a little anxiety. We got home and she is so calm and happy. I know he took them both on so many walks and sent tons of pics to calm my anxious momma heart while we were away. Would absolutely recommend and will use again. The girls loved him!
Nico did a fantastic job!
Amazing care as always. Rocky looks forward to when Nico comes to stay, he gets so much exercise and play time!
Rocky’s absolute favorite sitter - he is always so content and happily tired when we get home. Thank you so much for sharing toys with him Nico!
Nico is the absolute best dog sitter on the planet. So grateful for him and all he did to take care of my pups. Definitely plan to use his dog sitting services many times. Absolutely trustworthy.

Schedule
I’m currently a full-time online student through Penn State World Campus, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home most of the day. Because all my classes are remote, I can easily organize my schoolwork around pet care — making time for morning walks, midday check-ins, and evening visits. Pets get consistent attention, exercise, and routine throughout the day.
