Pet care experience

I have been taking care of pets for most of my life. Growing up, I trained and took care of my own Boston Terrier up until his passing. At age 12, I also began pet sitting and walking for neighbors. I am able to take care of special needs pets if given instructions, senior pets and am comfortable walking pets who pull.

Nicole was communicative, thorough, and so kind to our pup. We hope to be lucky enough to work with her again—thank you, Nicole!!!

Nicole took great care of my dog while I was away. They were so communicative from the initial meet and greet to the pick up. I got lots of updates and photos and loved seeing Rocco enjoying their toys and getting so much attention! They also did a great job of caring for his paw that he injured.. Rocco was in great hands!

Nicole was so thoughtful and attentive with my dogs. She came and met them ahead of their first official walk, and did a great job with them. She was very communicative and I will defintiely ask her to walk them again :).

I will make sure to follow your instructions on when and how to feed your pet. They will be taken for at least two walks a day - one during the day and one at night. I am also able to easily crate your pet if you would like me to do so. Additionally, I will play with them throughout the day to keep them entertained. I am committed to leaving your home in the same condition as when I first arrived. This means that I will clean up any and all messes, including accidents. Furthermore, I am happy to water your plants, collect your mail, or any other tasks you may need me to do.

Information Nicole F. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me if your pet has any special needs or disabilities that I should take into account. If so, kindly provide me with clear instructions so that I can cater to their needs accordingly. Also, please let me know if your pet requires any medication and how they prefer it to be administered. I have experience administering oral medication, but I may require additional instructions if it is provided in a different form. Additionally, be sure to inform me of any triggers your pet may have while on walks and any specific training you would like me to reinforce during the booking.

A typical day

I will ensure that your pet receives ample exercise during the day by taking them on long walks around the neighborhood and providing indoor and outdoor playtime with their favorite toys. In case of boarding or house sitting, I also bring along puzzle treat dispensers to keep your pet mentally stimulated and prevent boredom.
