Pet care experience

24/7 love and care

Hi! I’m Nicole, a lifelong dog lover, experienced sitter, and someone who 100% gets emotionally attached to the pets I care for (not ashamed to admit I scroll through photos of past clients like they’re my own 🐶💖). When I’m house sitting, I treat every pup like family and I also treat your home with the same respect and care, keeping things clean, tidy, and exactly how you left them, so you can return stress-free. This isn’t a kennel-style setup — it’s personalized, one-on-one care that no boarding facility can match. Your dog will get all the love, attention, and comfort they need to feel safe, happy, and totally at ease. I go above and beyond to make sure your dog is not just looked after, but genuinely cared for. I’ll follow their routine, cater to their needs, and keep you updated every step of the way, with photos, stories, and maybe a few happy tears from me when I get too attached. I also have experience working with reactive dogs and take a calm, gentle approach to help them feel secure and understood. Every dog is different, and I love getting to know their unique personalities, quirks, and what makes them feel their best. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and treats your pup like one of their own, I’m your person. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend!

Safety, trust & environment

In both my home and my client's, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for pets. This includes regular exercise, playtime, feeding according to their dietary needs, administering medication if required, and providing plenty of love and attention. Additionally, I maintain clear communication with pet owners to ensure their peace of mind while they're away.

We are so grateful to have found Nicole! She took great care of our dogs, provided regular updates, and maintained the structure of their daily routine with a high level of integrity. Not to mention, coming home to a clean and well cared for house! She’s awesome, don’t hesitate to book with her :)

House Sitting • tammi 27, 2026

Nicole is fantastic! She recently stayed with our dog and two cats for three nights. She came for an initial meet and greet after we reached out to inquire about her availability, and our dog took to her immediately. She was flexible with her arrival and departure times as our plans evolved, and was communicative throughout our time away - sending photos and updates of all three animals. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. We are beyond thrilled to have found a pet sitter that took such great care of our pets and home, and will certainly rebook with Nicole in the future.
