I currently work remotely, which means I have a flexible schedule and can gladly care for your pet whenever you need! While I do have my own morning workout routine, my afternoons and much of the day are wide open — your pet will still get plenty of attention and love. Drop-off and pick-up times are flexible, so feel free to let me know what works best for you! My main focus here is daycare and walks, but I also offer drop-ins, house sitting, dog boarding, and extended stays. I’m here to help however I can, your fur baby will be in great hands!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment with a balcony, but I’m lucky to have a big grassy area and a dog park just steps away - perfect for giving your pet plenty of fresh air, playtime, and potty breaks! I’ll give your pet all the love and attention they need to feel happy and safe at the end of the day. It’s super important to me to follow any instructions you leave - I’ll stick to your routine with the utmost care to make sure your buddy stays safe and fabulous! Your dog will never be left unattended, and you're always welcome to send their favorite toys, treats, or anything that makes them feel at home. Just let me know what their usual day looks like, and I’ll make it happen. And fair warning: you’ll be getting a ton of picture updates and happy texts from me and your furry friend! 😉

Information Nicola S. would like to know about your pet

It’s super helpful to know your pet’s routine, quirks, and any special needs ahead of time! Things like feeding schedules, medications, triggers, favorite toys, and how they usually react to new people or other animals all help me give them the best care possible. The more I know, the more comfortable and happy your pet will be while you’re away!

A typical day

Whether it's a game of fetch, a relaxing stroll, or some good ol’ belly rubs, I tailor the fun to what your pet loves most! For dogs, I enjoy walks around the neighborhood or to the nearby dog park, playing with their favorite toys, and adding in enrichment games like treat puzzles or basic training practice. For cats, it’s all about wand toys, window watching, and cozy snuggles (if they’re into it!). I aim to keep your pet happy, stimulated, and feeling right at home.

Nicola stepped in as a last-minute replacement after a sudden cancellation — I had to leave without even meeting her in person. She stayed in my home, cared for my service dog, and left the place spotless. She followed instruction to the letter and took June inside public places, trusted her off-leash training, and brought her to the park multiple times a day even in peak heat. I received regular photos and updates and it was clear they had a wonderful time together. I appreciate Nicola’s professionalism, trustworthiness, and genuine care. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.

What a wonderful Dog Walker! Nicola cares- she watches and pays close attn to your baby. She will ask questions if anything looks concerning. Sent me daily pics. Very punctual and polite. Can’t wait to request her again. She is a 10 star Walker ⭐️

Nicola was amazing! She stayed at my home for 4 nights and when I wanted to extend our vacation she had no issue at all! Nicola gave me lots of updates and pictures and reassured me all the time my pets were safe and happy. I would definitely recommend booking with Nicola!!

Nicola was the most amazing sitter to my little 1-year old Maltese, Zoe. She was very attentive and asked very detailed questions before watching Zoe to be sure all of her needs were met. Nicola's energy is so warm and inviting. Zoe tends to be timid around new people but immediately started playing with Nicola when she walked in the door which made me feel at ease as this was the first time I left Zoe overnight. She sent me many pictures and updates which made me feel so relieved. Your pet will be in the best hands with Nicola!
