Highlights
Pet care experience
Full-time Professional Dog Mom ❤️
As a a lifelong dog mom, I know how hard it is to find good care for your best friend so it’s my honor to be your stand-in pet parent and give your baby the kind of care I give my own. I’m home full time with my sweet Shihtzu mix Blair and part of a work-from-home dog loving duo. My partner Adam and I have shared our lives with pups since childhood, and there’s nothing we enjoy more than having furry friends around. We can’t wait to welcome your pup into our “pack” and provide lots of love, couch cuddles and family walks. With over 20 years of experience caring for pups of all ages. I’m intuitive and naturally attune to your dog’s energy and mood, which helps me provide calm, responsive care. Your pup will join our little crew, which includes Blair, our friendly 15lb Shih Tzu mix. Blair is gentle, low-key, and great at reading social cues. She enjoys companionship and will help your dog feel right at home. We usually take two, 30-minute walks per day, along with several additional short strolls or potty breaks. Our building has a private dedicated potty spot right out back and we’re lucky to have lovely parks nearby and a quieter pathway for walks behind our building, away from busy streets. We’ll make sure to keep your pup’s routine and feeding schedule intact, and gladly adjust to their needs. I’ll also be sharing plenty of fun photos and videos so you can see your fur baby thriving! Their time with us will be like a doggy sleep-away camp packed with fun, enrichment, and family-style love until you return!

Ratings and reviews
Mochi LOVES spending the day with Nicole, Adam, and Blair! Nicole’s communication is always prompt and her energy is always warm and calm. We are grateful to have found amazing sitters in the area!
Nicole is so good with Mack! We know he’s in great hands when he gets to walk with her!
Nicole, her partner, and pup were the kindest hosts for our shy girl. Loved all the videos and pics. Would definitely leave Minnie with them again!
Nicole was GREAT with Jaxx. She communicated very well and Jaxx loved her! Our initial meet and greet went well. I highly recommend Nicole and will book next time!
Nicole was absolutely amazing with our furbaby, Zoie! 🐾🩷 From the very beginning, she was so welcoming and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Zoie in her care. She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and check-ins, kept Zoie on her normal schedule, and truly treated her like her own. Zoie absolutely loved Nicole and her furbaby, Blair; it was like she had a second mom and a little best friend while we were away! 🥹 We truly appreciate the love and care Nicole gave Zoie and the trust she built with us. We will definitely be booking with her again whenever we need a sitter. Highly recommend!
Oh my gosh, SOOOOO happy Mochi has a loving 'auntie Nicole' and 'uncle adam' to look after her while we are on trips. Nicole's communication leading up to the initial drop off was amazing and she really is the doggie whisperer. Meeting Adam was great and together their energy is so good. Mochi had a great day hanging with her new pal Blair and her new doggy day care. As a pet parent, I'm so relieved we finally found the perfect match for our pup. Honest, reliable, and genuinely warm hosts.
