Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to come to your pet and take care of them, as well as bring them for a walk or to a park to play. I have reliable transportation, excellent communication skills and I am a dependable parent used to juggling different tasks.

Information Nicole C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has a history of any allergies, seizures, triggering stimuli (looking at you squirrels) or any special needs. I would also like to know if there is anything that comforts them like a favorite toy, blanket or a place they like to be scratched.

A typical day

I will be happy to follow whatever care instructions you have for your pets and provide the most attentive care I can while you're away. Drop-in visits will be full of pets and playtime to help release any separation anxiety they might have. Walks will be focused on energy exertion, going potty and, if requested, leash training.

Pet care experience

Hi there! I have years of experience caring for animals - everyone from puppies and kittens to seniors. I would love to help take care of your fur baby too! I have a lot of energy for going on walks and playing, plus creative ways to entertain them while you're away. I can provide references upon request and I'm happy to answer any questions.

Nicole is amazing. She made our wedding weekend stress free and even brought our pup to the venue so we could get pictures with her. Whenever we travel, we always contact Nicole first. Highly, highly recommend.
