Pet care experience

I will love your pet like my own

Growing up, I wanted to be a vet so badly. My empathic heart couldn’t carry through with that profession so now I just love spending my time with animals as much as possible. I have a PhD in human psychology and I like to think that that applies to my ability to understand animals as well. When I am taking care of your pet I want them to experience the least amount of change as possible so I am willing to keep their usual routine as unchanged as possible. I have experience with special needs animals and am comfortable wrangling a puller on a walk. I’m confident reengaging a reactive dog during walks or content dogs who need encouragement to finish their walk. I’m really excited to spend time with your fur baby!

Nicole is fantastic. She took great care of our dog and cat, kept us updated throughout our trip, and handled unexpected things (like a small accident and a water issue) with calm and kindness. She’s communicative, reliable, and genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We always feel at ease when she’s looking after ours. Highly recommend!

Nicole has been an incredible help with our pup and cat, and we’re so grateful for her care. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Even during a very difficult personal situation, she still made time to check on our pets and keep us updated, which we truly appreciate. We’ve booked with Nicole multiple times and would gladly do so again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter.

We (and Pete) are extremely happy with Nicole! She is very responsive, keeps us posted with pictures and most importantly is a great host to our dog Pete! He loves to stay with her and seems to be very happy for the entire time of his stay.

Nicole took excellent care of our pup and cat, during a recent trip. She was incredibly reliable, providing regular updates throughout her visits, and went above and beyond by keeping our dog clean and dry despite some very muddy weather. When we returned, our otherwise-anxious pup was happy and relaxed, which speaks volumes about Nicole’s care and attention. She also communicated clearly about logistics throughout her time in our home. Overall, we were extremely pleased with her work. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to Nicole again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!

I would like to know your dog's preferences for where they sleep, how they like to be touched, and if they have any quirks that bother them. For me, all you need to know about me ahead of time is that I will be flexible and attentive to you and your fur baby's needs.
