Reliable & Experienced Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I currently live in Greenwich, back to the East Coast after having lived in Indianapolis as well as abroad in Paris, France. I love animals and am a vegetarian. I have had pets (dogs, cats, birds, frogs, small mammals, etc) my entire life. I have my masters degree in Animal Behavior and conservation. I am currently a fellow dog mom to Dakota, a sweet and gentle 3 year old mixed breed. In addition to understanding the needs of your pets I’m reliable and responsible. I’m also fun, engaging and active - I love walking the dogs! I can give any medications as needed and will provide any report/photos you may want while you’re away. I am willing to meet prior to caring for your pet to go over any specials needs/requests and/or general care routines. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets!! Contact me with any questions.
Reviews
Nicole and her family were great with our dog Marty. We met once before leaving him for 4 days and immediately he seemed at ease, and I should note our dog Marty is pretty nervous around new people and new dogs. Nicole sent regular updates and each one showed a very happy pooch. He seemed very at ease with the family dog Dakota and bonded with their son. We will definitely ask Nicole and her family to dog-sit again and highly recommend her to anyone.
I’ve had Nicole as a repeat sitter now and she is fantastic every time!
Nicole was a fabulous house and dog sitter. I was worried about leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time, and she made the whole process so unstressful. She came ahead of her visit to meet my dog, which made for a smooth transition. She sent great updates and put both my dog and me totally at ease.
Wow! Nicole was fantastic with our 2 cats!! This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving the cats alone, so we were definitely nervous. Nicole went out of her way to do a meet and greet with us and the cats a few days before the stay, which made us feel so much better. She is so reliable and has excellent communication skills. She sent detailed updates, asked questions as needed, and sent lots of cute pictures so we could see how they were doing. The cats clearly loved her! Even our shy kitty went right up to her and cuddled. She definitely has a magic touch and great experience with kittens. In addition, Nicole was a great house sitter. She was very respectful of our belongings, followed every request we had for feedings and other directions for the house. I HIGHLY recommend Nicole for any requests, and will definitely request her again in the future!
