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.

Nicole was wonderful with my little dog Bailey. She sent pictures showing him seeming very happy. She went above expectations caring for him. I will certainly use her again if I need a sitter for him. Thank you so much Nicole.

Nicole was so sweet and communicative! She constantly sent update pictures, which I LOVED, and she made him pupsicles, and clipped his nails. Thank you so much for giving him all the love and personalized care and most importantly, tiring him out! Haha

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.
