Your pet deserves a vacay too!

Pet care experience

An adventurer, an Aquarius and a complete animal lover!! My love for animals has taken me to volunteer jobs 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 mommy 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 very caring and attentive, reassuring me that my senior doggy was in great hands and I was not disappointed. I would certainly recommend!

I recently have had some fantastic experiences with Nicola! She and her husband Pedro took care of my dog including on an overnight stay and my dog had a great time with them (I think my dog prefers being with them than with me lol). Nicole communicated with me regularly and provided plenty of updates including videos on how my pup was doing. I would not hesitate contacting Nicola if you are looking for someone to take care of your dog!
