Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal-Loving Grad Student!
Hi! I am a Law student at Dalhousie who would love to help with all your pet-related needs. I love going on long walks, hanging out in parks, and spending as much time as I can outside - which would be even better with a dog (I am missing mine from home)! I grew up with a small poodle in my family for most of my life, alongside lots of other pets (hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, hermit crabs), and just adopted a puppy with my family at home, so I am happy to look after a pet of any shape or size! I am also comfortable administering medications (oral / injected) through experience caring for my family dog in her older years. I live in a house of 4 animal-loving students, with a yard and located just a block away from The Commons and close to some off-leash dog parks, so your pet would be able to make lots of visits to play! I can accommodate up to two dogs, but would prefer to look after just one pet (cat/dog/other) at a time to provide maximum care and attention. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions :)

Nicole also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
As I typically only accept one pet (or household of pets) at a time, I aim to give my greatest attention to your pets to ensure their safety and happiness! I want your pets to feel at home, even in my house, so they are welcome to make themselves comfortable wherever they feel best.
Ratings and reviews
Nicole was great. She took Julio out for a fun walk and sent me pics and let me know how he was doing. Julio was super happy when I picked him up. I will definitely book with her again!
My dog Ollie liked Nicole right away and seemed to make herself right at home! Got photos from a trip they took to the park & she was tired out when I picked her up :)
Nicole G. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
My puppy came home happy and tired:)
Another wonderful day with Nicole at the dog park and then the lake! Happy, sleepy dog lying down next to me now dreaming happy dreams 🐾🐾
Nicole was amazing! Loki went to the lake, ran around the dog park, played with Nicole and her housemates and had an incredible time throughout. He’s snoozing now after a busy day of activity, excitement and fun. Highly recommend!
