Information Nicola B. would like to know about your pet

What does your pet love most? Best calming practices? Does your pet have any allergies I need to be aware of? Separation anxiety? Do they have a fear of anything in particular or things they really dislike? The Postman perhaps?

A typical day

Some services I provide: * Adventure- Lots of parks to be played in and lots of new things to be sniffed! *Doggie Massage *Enrichment/Exercise- Ball, tug, treats, training, socialization *Netflix & chill- Cuddles on the couch to restore from the day! Oh and not forgetting about the pawrentals…To keep them at ease on vacation, I’ll send some selfie updates throughout the stay and am always free to FaceTime.

Pet care experience

An adventurer, an Aquarius and a HUGE animal lover!! Over the past 10 days I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs around the world, including animal shelters in Hong Kong, adoption agencies in Barcelona and more recently, I’ve taken on volunteer roles at the local Petsmart and Frost Science Museum in Miami!! Dog care in particular, comes second nature to me and I have experience caring for all shapes and sizes, from chihuahua to chow chow. Previously, I was a dog mum to a beautiful black cat and two mischievous Jack Russell's. So I have first-hand experience when caring for young to elderly pets and I understand the necessity for correct exercise, care and love. My apartment is spacious with an outdoor balcony for your pet to come in and out as they please. With no kids or other pets to bother them, they can think of my place as a puppy's day retreat. We also have a few doggy parks close by, so your pooch will have lots to keep them entertained while you're away.

Nicola was amazing! She agreed to care for kodie on last minute notice, and despite the rain, took him on long park adventures. 100% recommend Nicola for anyone’s pets! They’re in great hands.
