Availability
Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work only four days a week and have weekends and major holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pet’s needs. When I’m working, my husband is home full-time to provide consistent care and communication — so your dog is never without attention. If your dog experiences separation anxiety, please let us know in advance so we can provide the extra comfort and structure they may need. When caring for Rover dogs, I love taking them on wilderness walks, engaging them in interactive play, and making sure they get plenty of toys, stimulation, and snuggles throughout the day. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique personality.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We don’t have a fenced yard but we live right next to a dog run where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime and fresh air, as well as crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, secure space to relax. We also have an automatic water fountain system to ensure pets stay hydrated at all times. Whether they’re staying for a few hours or overnight, every pet in our care is treated like family. With my background as a former veterinary assistant, I’m trained to notice signs of stress or discomfort and am comfortable administering basic medications or following special care instructions as needed.

Information Nicole C. would like to know about your pet
What We’d Like to Know About Your Dog To provide the best care possible, we kindly ask that you share a few important details about your pup before their stay or visit. Since we have 3 dogs of our own and a toddler at home, it’s important for us to understand your dog’s behavior and comfort levels. Please be honest and let us know: • How your dog interacts with other dogs (including any reactivity or social boundaries) • Their comfort level around young children/toddlers • Any quirks, triggers, or behavioral concerns we should be aware of • Feeding schedule, food allergies, or dietary restrictions • Favorite toys, activities, or routines that make them feel at home • Any specific dislikes (e.g., loud noises, other animals, handling certain areas) Your honesty helps us create a safe, calm, and positive environment for both your pet and ours. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs — we just want to make sure everyone feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day with us includes plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. I love taking the dogs on hiking or trail walks to help them burn off energy, enjoy nature, and stay mentally stimulated. If permitted by the owner, we also make fun trips to local dog parks for social time and play. At home, dogs are given free roam (if they’re comfortable with it), allowing them to relax, explore, and feel at ease. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch, lounging in the sun, or snuggling up with us during quiet time, your dog will feel like part of the family throughout their stay.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Nicole,with a background in veterinary care and experience working in a busy dog daycare environment. My husband, Leo, is a full-time stay-at-home dad, and together we provide reliable, loving pet care right here in Kitsap County. We offer a variety of services including: 🐾 Dog boarding 🐾 Drop-in visits 🐾 Dog walking 🐾 Overnight stays (upon request) We work as a team to ensure your pets receive consistent, attentive care. When I’m away for work , Leo takes the lead on all Rover communications, walks, and drop-in visits. When I’m home, we both tag-team to make sure your dog is safe, happy, and loved. A Little About Me: Caring for animals is my true passion — if I could, I’d have my own ranch full of them! We have four dogs of our own, and we love exploring local dog parks, trails, and beaches together. Before becoming a flight attendant, I worked hands-on in a dog daycare, managing playgroups of 20–25 dogs. If you’ve used OBF Dog Daycare, you may already recognize me! Why Choose Us? ✅ Experienced in multi-dog environments ✅ Flexible availability through our team-based care ✅ Passionate, trustworthy, and pet-first approach ✅ Committed to clear, prompt communication ✅ Comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments We understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your furry family members. That’s why we encourage meet-and-greets with both of us, so you feel 100% confident in who’s looking after your pup — whether it’s me, Leo, or both of us. We look forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend! Warmly, Nicole & Leo 🐾
Reviews
Nicole was easy to work with and so responsive! I am so glad my dog got to stay with her. I am confident that she cares and provides an environment that he can be comfortable in. I will gladly book with Nicole again.
Nicole and Leo sent lots of pictures and made me comfortable about leaving my dog for daycare. They were so nice and patient with my puppy. I would totally recommend them!
Thank you so much for taking care of our dogs!!
Another amazing stay for my pet. My dog really enjoys his time with Nicole and her family. He always comes home exhausted and happy.
