Pet care experience

Full-time care for dogs & cats

Hi! My name is Nicolas. Since I am home full-time, I am able to dedicate my entire day to the care and well-being of the dogs and cats I look after in our large, two-story house in South Burlington, which features a big, secure yard where they can safely run and play. I have the experience to care for any type of animal, including puppies that require extra attention, patience, and routine. For your peace of mind, I provide very regular updates and frequently send photos of your companion throughout their stay. Please note that since I have a 20-month-old son, any dog staying with us must be perfectly comfortable and safe around young children.

Took great care of our cats while we were gone. Was also available on very short notice which was very much appreciated.

Nicolas was very responsive and took great care of my senior dog. He administered daily medications and sent photo updates. Would definitely book again.

Nicolas is so kind and communicative! Olive always gets so happy to see him, and he is especially patient with her as an energetic puppy who can be quite stubborn.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 20, 2026

I’m a traveler and heading back to Florida next week so I doubt I will meet his services again. However, absolutely would rehire in a heartbeat!We just had a quick need while I had a medical treatment done. Athena was nervous about going in but despite being happy to see me she did turn around and try to give Nicholas a kiss before we left so that’s always a good sign!

Schedule

As a stay-at-home dad, I am at the house full-time, making it incredibly easy to fit dedicated pet care into my daily routine. I offer specialized services tailored to your pets' needs, including both cat and dog boarding at my home, where your furry friends will enjoy constant company and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also offer dog walking and 30 to 60-minute home visits at your location. Whether it's strictly following feeding and medication schedules, managing frequent potty breaks, or taking your dog out for a great walk to break up their day, you can rest assured your companions will receive premium care while staying completely on their regular routine.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home: Your pets will have plenty of room to comfortable and safe in our large two-story house. Since I am home full-time, I provide constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. I ensure a safe, organized environment for both visiting dogs and cats, strictly following their regular feeding, potty, litter, and medication schedules so they feel right at home. At your home: I follow your exact instructions to respect your pet's routine, whether I am dropping by for a 30 to 60-minute visit or taking your dog out for a walk. I make sure your home stays secure, doors are locked, and your pet gets their regular feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks exactly as they do when you are there.

Since I am home full-time, I follow your pet's exact schedule: meals at fixed times, regular potty breaks, nap times, and plenty of companionship.
