Pet care experience

I love dogs more than most people

I have been walking and watching for dogs since I was in high school and I am now 33, so it’s been a while. I have three of my own fur babies and I am very particular about who I let watch them. I understand our dogs are apart of our family, which is exactly how I would treat them. I love spending time with dogs, talking to them and making them feel special. I do have a full time job as a mental health therapist but my schedule is flexible which allows me to give the fur babies the correct amount of exercise and attention. I have spent time volunteering in shelters and I am able to work with dogs that may be more timid or shy.

I am so glad I found Nicole! I hate leaving my Honey home, but I feel so lucky to have someone like Nicole there to take care of her. She was great about sending pictures and updating me on Honey’s day. It’s comforting to know that a sitter like Nicole is there for Honey and I. I will be using Nicole in the future, and, I have already booked her for daily walks. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.

Very responsive and responsible. She included pics and videos and updates and was very considerate for her stay at our home. Would highly recommend!

Nicole was great during watching my partner and I’s two cats over the holidays. She was quick to reply, easy to communicate with, and took the best pictures of our boys! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nicole in the future.

Nicole is a hard working and respectful person. She loves all animals and treats her dog as a son. From personal experience she has taken care of my cats and dog well and loved them like her own. She is easy to work with and reliable. She loves taking her dog on run/walks daily.

Schedule

I work from home and so have a flexible schedule where I’d have the ability to help out with doggos. I use this as a side gig so I am very flexible.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Nicole can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I don’t have any preference on breeds that I will watch. I have three mixed breed dogs that were from the shelter. I would just like to know how the dog would react when I enter the house.
