Pet care experience

Farm girl that loves animals!

I have cared for dogs, cats, race and draft horses, chickens, cows, rabbits, hamsters, guinea Pigs, goats, snakes, birds, llamas, a monkey and lots of other creatures. I’d love to be able to help with your pet care needs. House sitting includes: Staying in your home with your pets. This means there needs to be a clean bed or place to sleep. While your pets will be in my care I will still need to be able to accommodate other responsibilities. Your pets will not be left for more than 7hours at a time. If your pets require 100% around the clock care, I unfortunately will not be able to accommodate this. Meet and greets are required before booking starts. Thank you so much for your time.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I love meeting new animals! I make sure to provide a safe environment where your animal will feel confident and less stressed. I have experience administering medications and very detailed feedings. I like to pay attention to the pets routine so that they can have a sense of comfort while you are away there for most of the time I am flexible on times so they aren’t thrown so far off their routine.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Nicole treated our dogs like family—spending plenty of time with them and sending regular updates with photos. It gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!

Nicole is the best. Tala, my 10 year old GS, loves her!!! Nicole is reliable and does such a great job with Tala when I am away from home. Nicole’s services give me peace of mind that Tala will be well taken care of when I am not able to be at home with her. Thank you, Nicole!

Please let me know if your animal has any fears or dislikes, allergies to treats, or on a special exercise routine. I like the animals to be as less stressed as possible.
