Your pet will be treated like part of the family while in my care.

Dogs will have access to a safe, comfortable home environment and plenty of supervised interaction. I have one dog and three cats, so I only accept dogs that are social and comfortable around other animals. My goal is to make your pet feel relaxed, loved, and at home while you're away.

Information Nicole B. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know ahead of time about any medical needs, allergies, behavioral quirks, triggers, feeding routines, and comfort levels with other animals or people. I also appreciate knowing their usual schedule, exercise needs, and any habits that help them feel safe and comfortable so I can provide the best possible care.

A typical day

I provide a mix of walks, playtime, and attention based on each pet’s needs and energy level. This includes walks, fetch, and interactive play, along with plenty of supervision and companionship. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and well cared for while in my home.

10+ Years of Animal Care Experience

Pet care experience

Animals have been my passion and career for over 10 years. My background includes working in dog daycares, veterinary medicine, and animal control, giving me experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. As a stay-at-home mom, I'm home throughout the day and can provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I've welcomed many dogs into my home over the years and treat every pet like family. I currently have one dog and three cats, so my only requirement is that visiting dogs are social and comfortable around other animals. I look forward to giving your pet a safe, loving home away from home!

I haved not met anyone who has a greater love for animals than this lady! Her years of experience with VetMed give me a peace of mind knowing our furbaby is in good hands. If you are looking for someone reliable, caring with a true heart of passion and love for animals look no further. Our first call always! Chewbacca would agree! (My 7yr old Whoodle)
