Where your dog always feels at home

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Nicole and my best friend is my dog Mogwai. I have had him since he was just 8 weeks old and we are going on 8 years together! He is my whole world and the care I give to dogs is nowhere short of what I would want for my own baby. I have previously worked at a large daycare. I personally believe some dogs may need more personalized care and I am here to give you the care you need wether it be for a senior dog, a special needs dog, or an energetic puppy. Large daycares cannot provide a personal touch like I can. I hope to provide the best quality care for you and your pets. I have experience with diabetic dogs and dogs with seizures along with admineristing medications. Its so important to me that while you're away, your dog feels comfortable and at home.

Nicole took good care of our Bud! We were able to travel quietly, knowing he was well and happy. If we travel again and Nicole is available, we'll leave Bud with her again !!!

Nicole has a passion for dogs. Always has. She has worked in the doggie daycare industry and realized through Rover.com she could provide more personal care to the dogs she loves. Large daycares can be scary for some dogs and overwhelming and through this service she can provide 1 on 1 time. She is very knowledgeable about dogs in general and about different types of behavior and health issues a dog might have. She is loving and patient and reliable. Nicole has 2 pups of her own that are her furr children and room in her heart to love and care for more when needed. Nicole would be a perfect fit for any dog!

I want your dog to feel comfortable while you are away. I don't want your baby to feel like a stranger is coming into their home and telling them what to do. I want provide a fun and comfortable experience. I hope that even if they're sad while you are away, they will look forward to their visits with me where I will not only help care for their needs but provide a trusting and loving friendship.

Information Nicole A. would like to know about your pet

Your dogs safety is my number one priority so I want to know if your dog has any medical or other special needs. Even if I am only doing short check-ins on your pets I prefer to be aware of any possible issues that could arise. If your dog has any nervous tendencies or specific fears such as loud noises, etc. It may help for me to be aware so that I can be sure your dog feels safe and happy.

A typical day

Wether your dog is laidback and just needs some basic cuddles and pets to feel comfortable while you're away or your dog is high energy and needs lots of stimulation. I aim to provide care specific to your dogs needs and desires.
