Services

Nicole can care for

Cats

Availability

I work from home, so I’m home most of the day during the week — and I love having a furry excuse for a mid-day walk! I do pop out occasionally for the gym or quick errands, but I’m never gone for long. I have an active social life, but I’m flexible and always happy to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs to make sure they get consistent care and attention.

Safety, trust & environment

I take the time to let every pet get comfortable at their own pace. Building trust starts with consistency — following their usual routines, respecting their space, and paying attention to their body language. I use a calm voice, gentle movements, and plenty of positive reinforcement (and treats, if allowed!) to help them feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s a shy pup or a social butterfly, I focus on creating a stress-free, loving environment so they can relax and feel at home while you’re away.

Cat care experience

I didn’t grow up with cats at home, but I’ve always had them in my life — first through friends and roommates, and later through pet-sitting. I’ve cared for multi-pet households with multiple cats and have met just about every feline personality out there: the shy one who only appears for meals, the social butterfly who can’t get enough snuggles, the mischievous troublemaker, and the goofy entertainer. I love them all! One of my more memorable experiences was caring for a friend’s cat with asthma — administering an inhaler to a furry patient was definitely a unique bonding experience (especially as a fellow asthmatic!). Whether your cat needs quiet company, playtime, or extra care, I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to their personality and comfort level.
