Your dogs other best friend!
Pet care experience
Dog enthusiast and certified dog trainer, currently providing dog walking and leash manners. I am ready to open my home to your furry family member, and give you peace of mind while you are away. I will provide a safe and loving environment, free from stress for your favorite pal! Playtime and regular walks are provided. In the event that I need to separate dogs, a crate or baby gate may be used as a safety tool. I strive to make all dogs feel comfortable and welcome in my home. Safety is my number one concern, so I do separate dogs for meal times. I also have the ability to separate small and big dogs in the yard for playtime. *pickup and drop off times are as follows :weekdays* 7:30-9:30 am and 4-8pm* you must make an appointment within those times for pickup and drop off. weekends: BY APPOINTMENT ONLY from 8am-8 pm**** I also ask that you always message me before your pick up or drop off, so I am able to safely bring your dog outside or inside without excitement for the other dogs that are staying.
Reviews
Nicole was great with Kody. I was a little nervous leaving him with a new sitter for a whole week but she did a great job taking care of him and he settled right in.
Nicole treated my sweet labs like gold! I was particularly worried about one of my labs who was just rescued after a traumatic experience 3 weeks prior. I expected her to be timid and scared and she was not! Nicole made sure she felt comfortable and she actually had a blast with Nicole! The dogs have been running around with the zoomies since they got home…probably left over excitement from having fun at Nicole’s. I will definitely book again! Thanks!
Nicole is fabulous! Scout loved her stay and will be back!
We are repeat customers and our senior Doberman LOVES staying with Nicole and her family! Just picked our boy up from his holiday boarding and he always comes back to us happy and healthy. When we drop him off he starts wagging his stump as soon as he realizes we are in her neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in back yard for plenty of outdoor play time. I have a special dog treadmill that I use for dogs who aren’t afraid of it. It does take a little getting used to.

Information Nicole D. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to host dogs that are people and dog friendly. I do have the ability to separate dogs, but I prefer to have eyes on them all of the time.
A typical day
We go on regular pack walks, I take dogs for a run along side of my bike on a special doggie bike leash, and the pups have unlimited outdoor playtime. Don't worry, if they get too dirty, I'll give them a wash and dry in my professional dog washing station.

I’m home all day so dogs get to go in and out as they please. I try to keep them on their regular schedule as far as feeding and bedtime.
