A person who absolutely loves dogs

Pet care experience

As a college student my hours are flexible. I go to school full time and work part time but anytime you need you can call or text me and I can work with you on anything. If you cancel I'm perfectly fine with that. I just want to help people out with their dogs and not worry. I'm doing all of this for fun and to help people out! I absolutely love dogs and will cater to any needs you have. If you choose me to stay over I'll be over as much as possible. I'll get out from work and school and go straight over. I'll constantly keep you updated with call or texts about everything! If I run into any problems or if anything is abnormal I'll notify you immediately Thank you for reading this :) I am smoke free so you don't have to worry about smoke smell or smoking lol. My husband has watched a clients dog before. He usually never comes with me to watch the dogs there was just one instant where he had to. I will leave it up to the client whether they feel comfortable or not. You may have questions about the one review. Yes I am 20. Born February 11, 1997. Being in college there are classes called gateway courses. Where you have only two chances to take the course. The course requires everyone who is taking it that semester to take it at the exact same time. This time it was on Friday at 5:30pm-6:45Pm. It's something that UTSA does. I do not choose to make the time. I sent my regrets and I asked her if she would like my husband to meet her before the stay or if she wanted me to find someone else for her to watch her dog. I offered to cancel the entire stay and find someone else for her that is qualified through the app. She chose my husband. My husband face timed me the entire time and did play with the dog and took her out frequently. Some dogs do not like being in a hotel due to the reason being it's in a small area and they can't fully run around and play. I did not have a chance to meet her prior to the sitting because she was only here one night. You can't do a proper meet and greet when the owner is only in town for one night. Yes I take full responsibility because I was the one that messed up regarding the times. I tried my best to accommodate the dog parent.

Nicole was great while we were out of town. She took great care of them and would definitely consider her again for any future dog sitting.

Nicole is highly rated. I asked her to watch my dog for me while I was visiting San Antonio. I was only asking for a partial night, but paying a full night's rate. I booked the date a week in advance. When I checked in with her the night before to schedule the time, I said, is 5 or 5:30 okay. She sent back a message, "yeah :)" So I asked, which one is better for you? She came back with a statement that she was sorry, she had a test (on a Friday night, mind you) and wouldn't be able to make it until 7:30. But I had a concert to go to at the Alamodome--as she had already been informed. It was very thorny and incredibly stressful to think that the day before I needed her, she wouldn't be available. She said she was 20 at some point as though that was a reason she didn't follow through with notifying me sooner that she couldn't make it. She arranged to have her husband come to stay with my dog instead. My dog usually loves men, but he didn't really respond like someone who loves dogs or has dogs. When I got home, he told me he'd followed my instructions but that my dog seemed bored. And she probably was, but he didn't make any mention of trying to play with her despite their being a toy laying about. I don't recommend putting your vacation at risk with this person.
