Safety, trust & environment

When on dog walks, I take the safety of your dog very seriously. I carry a pepper spray on me to ensure that if God forbid i'm walking your dogs and we got charged by an aggressive dog, I'll be able to keep your dog safe and out of harm's way. I also use body block methods to keep my clients dogs safe on walks in the event I'm charged by off leash dogs (which I have been hence the pepper spray precaution I take now) I tend to always avoid dogs on walks unless you point out to me any dogs you know that it's ok for your dog to greet and interact with. Other than that, I rather be safe then have your fur baby hurt. when I bring my lunch on me I always be sure I get something dog safe for me to eat God forbid your dog gets any ideas, they won't be harmed in that way.

Nicole is an exceptionally safe, responsible, and dependable pet caregiver. She takes every precaution to ensure pets are secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. Her attention to detail, calm demeanor, and commitment to following instructions give pet owners peace of mind. Nicole genuinely prioritizes each pet’s well-being and safety, whether on walks, during playtime, or while providing overnight care. I would trust her completely with the care of any pet and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving caregiver.

I am happy to recommend Nicole as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely loves animals. Nicole is attentive to each pet’s individual needs and always ensures they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. She is dependable, communicative, and treats every pet as if they were her own. Any pet parent would be fortunate to have Nicole caring for their furry family members, and I would confidently trust her with my pets anytime.
