Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. My schedule varies from week to week depending on bookings and client needs, but I currently have an open and flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. Whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings and cuddles, I build my day around making sure each dog gets the attention, structure, and affection they need.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always aim to create a calm, loving, and safe environment tailored to each dog’s personality and routine. Dogs staying with me enjoy a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax and play. I live with my sweet, well-behaved Chihuahua named Coco who loves canine visitors and gets along with all breeds. I provide regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection throughout the day. I follow the pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, or special care routines to ensure consistency and comfort. When caring for dogs in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routines and environment. I make sure feedings, walks, and any special care are handled just as requested. I treat every client’s home with respect and make sure their pets are safe, content, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether at my place or yours, I always send updates with photos and videos so you can feel confident and connected while your pet is in my care.

Information Nicole B. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know a few important details about your pup before we get started to ensure the best possible care. Please let me know if your dog is spayed or neutered, and if they have any health concerns or physical limitations especially related to stairs, mobility, or medications. I also appreciate knowing about any anxiety triggers, behavioral quirks, or routines that help them feel safe and at ease. The more I know, the better I can make their stay smooth, happy, and tailored to their needs!

A typical day

We’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor time, from exploring my dog-friendly neighborhood to taking sniff-filled strolls through nearby parks. I love playing interactive games like fetch, tug-of-war, or puzzle toys to keep things fun and enriching. Whether your pup loves running around, playing chase, or just lounging in the sun, I tailor each day to their personality and energy level so they feel right at home.

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Nicole and I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I was raised in a home full of dogs. Since I was a young girl, my mother has been a professional dog breeder of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, so I grew up helping care for five or more pups at a time. This lifelong exposure has given me a deep understanding of dog behavior, care, and training from a very young age. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve worked at a doggy daycare where I gained even more expertise in training, administering medications, grooming, and providing attentive, loving care. Whether it’s a high energy puppy or a senior dog needing special attention, I’m confident and capable in providing tailored care. I’m currently based in Huntington NY where I offer a safe and welcoming home environment for dog boarding. I live in a pet friendly space with my calm and friendly Chihuahua named Coco who loves having visitors. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection in a peaceful supervised setting. I now have open availability throughout the week and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your pup’s needs whether for daytime care, overnight stays, or extended visits. I wholeheartedly have lots of fun while looking after dogs of all kinds, and it is my priority to keep your fur baby safe, happy and healthy! I am looking forward to connecting with you! 🦴🐶🐾

Nicole was great with our 2 Weimaraners. She was responsible and loving to our 2 dogs showing up on time and walking and feeding on schedule. She spent time playing with them and was great with communication.
