Availability

I have a very flexible schedule as an artist, working from home. I am available every other week to house sit. Weekends I am selling my artwork at markets in the mornings but typically have the afternoons and evenings free. Check my schedule for availability and message me to see if we can make something work. I unfortunately don't do drop ins, only overnight stays.

Information Nicole D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors and I'll do my best to accommodate them. Their safety and comfort is my #1 priority

A typical day

I love playing and interacting with both dogs and cats. I have lots of toys and games we can play at your house or mine. If they are here with me, we live at the base of South mountain and will go on daily hikes or walks depending on their specific needs. If we're at yours, will love to explore the nearby parks with them.

Pets

High quality pet care

Pet care experience

If you're looking for high quality,reliable pet care, look no further. I have 20 years of experience and now that my kids are grown I have more availability. I have experience with many different breeds and ages including senior and puppy care. I've always loved animals and even considered becoming a Vet at one point. Having 3 fur babies of my own I know how important it is to have a good quality pet sitter you can trust. You can rest assured knowing they will have the best, attentive care while you're away. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur babies

Nicole was great! She provided lots of updates and was very easy to communicate with. She took good care of my high energy boy and of my apartment.

Nicole watched our kitty for a long weekend and we didn't worry one second. She is so devoted to our furry families. She did a great job of keeping her happy and comfortable. Our kitty is older so needs more help and compassion! Nicole is a delightful person and we felt she is like our family. We hope we can have her back again..
