Owner away? We’ll sit and stay!

Pet care experience

My love for animals is unconditional. I was raised with cats, dogs, birds and rabbits in my younger years. I have since raised and trained my Rottweiler from 8 weeks old when I brought her home until she was 9 1/2 when I had to say our hardest goodbye. I was fortunate to come across this platform, and become a dog sitter for the last year. I have now cared for 36 different dogs of all ages and breeds. It has been such a wonderful experience, caring for dogs, keeping their routine the same, and giving them love and security when their owners are away.

10/10! Nicole was an outstanding host for our puppy! She was very nice, attentive, and ensured all of our dogs needs were met. Our puppy was in a cone from surgery, and Nicole was very accommodating and helpful with our dogs situation. Would recommend! :)

Nicole is the absolute best! Our elderly Doberman is so well cared for by her. He is always so excited to see her, and we feel so comfortable leaving him with her.

My only worry with Nicole is that our dog might decide he likes her more than us!. We have used her three times and just booked again. She is great.

Nicole and her family are great. Once again we felt very comfortable leaving our older Doberman with them. Happy boy in all the pictures. Thanks again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a nice size fenced backyard all the way around. I would only use the crate if your dog is crate trained and you supply the crate. Otherwise the dog will be in the home at all times with me, except for potty breaks, playing outside and sunbathing.

Information Nicole C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about the dogs health and any limitations that the dog would have when it comes to playing. Also if the dog is cautious of any type of body movements or apparel. For instance if your dog is wary of people in hoodies or hats, I find that would be helpful to know ahead of time.

A typical day

If your dog is good with car rides I love taking them to the beach. Walking along the beach and playing in the sand with the ball. I also like to take them out for socializing along the wharf. Also like to take him to the baseball diamond at the park and close the gate to let them run freely with the ball.

I am home full-time, I occasionally run out during the day for any errands and taking my son to and from school (high school senior). During the sports season, I may be gone at one of his games, but it’s not for very long.
