Pet care experience
I am currently in school at Animal Behavior College to become a professional dog trainer! Some minor training will be done during each care visit. My services include daycare, boarding, walking, or even drop in visits! We can discuss your long term goals and your pets' needs to personalize your training & care experience.
Reviews
Has lots of experience and genuinely cares about your pup! She sent us great updates, kept our doggo active and was willing to work with us around pickups and drop offs.
A few months ago I was lucky enough to observe Nicole and her pup Sarg passing by my place. I couldn't stop watching the incredible focus and immense interaction between the two! Sarg positively reacted her commands, both verbal and nonverbal! At times all she did was make arm and body movements. Clearly mom and pup were enjoying their stroll! We soon became friends, with frequent texts, or knocks on my door to inquire if she could borrow my Sadie to join them on a walk, or have a playful afternoon in her and Nics fenced in yard. Sadie would come home so happy! Nicole continues to share training tips, puppy treats...even helped pick out, and ordered some suppies to help me be a better pet parent! I would highly recommend Nicole for any training needs, pet sitting, or or just sharing of her knowledge! I was elated to find out she is expanding her education to help provide a better world for our furry friends. Thanks Nicole!!
Nicole has watched my German Shepard Bear several times when ive worked long hrs, took him for walks, and taught him different commands. Nicole is very friendly and awesome with animals and I would certainly recommend anyone that needs help with there animals to allow Nicole to help.

I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I also have a fenced yard with a doggie door which allows the dog(s) to go outside to potty or even just to play anytime they want! I have some crates available for use, when and if they are needed. No dogs shall be loose together unsupervised at any time. I have a partially finished basement with a door, so, if you do not wish for your dogs to interact with mine, my dogs can be separated fully. (My dog would be downstairs) We have cleared out an unused bedroom and turned it into a dog room with the crates, toys, a bed, etc.
Home
Information Nicole B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs like medications, physical limitations, fears, likes, food allergies, etc, so we can make sure our space is the safest it can be for your fur baby.
A typical day
Mental stimulation is just as important as physical needs. I have a number of toys and puzzles that are sure to keep your dogs mind occupied. On top of that we can play games like hide-and-seek, scent games, and learn or refine tricks. For the physical stimulation we can play games like fetch, tug, chase, and play with the flirt pole! We have also purchased the first piece (a 16 foot tunnel) to our backyard agility course and plans to get a lure coursing kit to really get your dogs energy out! Physical and mental stimulation can be done at the same time when taking walks or runs in new areas. Long walks & runs around town are a great way to burn off energy and enjoy the weather too. If there are any special games your fur baby likes to play let me know and we can do those too! Our dogs are currently training for mushing and bike-joring, if you're interested in learning or having your dog participate please reach out to me.
