Stay at Home Pet Lover

Pet care experience

I am a online college student at Ringling College of Art & Design. I am home all day doing my school work so your pet will never be alone. I love caring for animals and spending all my time with them. I've grew up raising and helping animals so I view all of them as family. I have a dog with anxiety so I know how to help animals feel safe and calm. Your pets safety and well being will always be my top priority so I am open to any accommodations your pet may require. I have an acre and a half yard that is fenced in with a lake in the back. Tons of room for your pet to run and play! If you have a energetic playful pup I love to take adventures to parks, trails, and beaches to enjoy the sun. If you have a pet that's more of a homebody I can easily spend my days lounging around the house with your furry friend just hanging out. I live with my boyfriend who loves animals & animals tend to adore him as well. You're pet will get plenty of attention all through the day with two people making sure they are happy and healthy.

Rambo absolutely loved his time with Nicole. And I loved the daily photos and videos of him enjoying his temporary home while I traveled. Having such a large place to run and play was a delight for my energetic (and fast) dog. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Nicole.

Benji had a great time and was very well taken care of. Loved all the pictures and videos Nicole sent me and all of them clearly showed how happy Benji was. He got plenty of exercise, fun and loving care. Highly recommended! I am looking forward to book her again.

Information Nicole D. would like to know about your pet

I have to know if your pet is friendly with other dogs so both your pet and mine can get along safely. Also I would like to know if your pup has any separation anxiety or other characteristics I need to be away of. If your pet does need any special care let me know what I can do to make their transition any easier or less scary. For separation anxiety I would love for you to pack one of your shirts and a favorite toy to ease them in to being away from you. I also have a preference because I have a dog of my own I do not watch adult dogs who are not fixed. I understand puppies who are too young who are not fixed & I do not have a problem watching them. If there is anything you would need from me we can cover it over our initial meet and greet!

A typical day

I am able to recognize the needs and wants of your pet, I can adjust to their personality to help them warm up to me and know they are loved. I adore animals and their company it really makes me happy taking care of them. I enjoy taking dogs to the doggie beach, park, and trails to allow some wind in their fur and proper exercise. I also have a big fenced in backyard let pups have private safe fun while still having more than enough room to be active. For more shy and indoor dogs I will give them as much space as they need to feel comfortable and just let them veg out and relax.
