Pet care experience

Taking care of animals has always been a huge part of my life! I grew up surrounded by pets (dogs, birds, fish, the odd reptile) so I’ve always had a special bond with animals. I believe every pet deserves to feel loved and safe, and I’m passionate about making sure your buds feel right at home with me. I can’t wait to meet them!

My maltipoo had a great time with Nicole and was well taken care of! She’s very nice, responsive over messaging, and attentive to instructions. Appreciate having Nicole watch my pup!

Nicole's Truly Fantastic - relaxed and easy to work with; an excellent communicator; and Holly (my little Morky) clearly loves her. Very Highly Recommended!
