Come Stay Play!

Hello, my name is Nicole! I am a dog mom to Duke looking to care for other dogs at my home and provide a friend for Duke. I work remotely & live in a dog-friendly apartment building with a small side balcony & can provide plenty of walk and play time. I’ve been a dog owner for the past four years but have cared for my family dogs and friends’ dogs for the past 10 years. I have experience caring for elder dogs as well, specifically a blind dog I have helped care for for the past few years. I’ll never forget to snap those cute pup pics and will care for your dog as my own!

Doggy Day Care • Jan 02, 2026

I’m incredibly grateful to Nicole for taking such amazing care of my dog, Lincoln. She is very responsible, kind, and clearly loves animals. She has a wonderful Maltese, and Lincoln and her dog became great friends right away, which made me feel so at ease. Nicole regularly sent photos and videos, keeping me updated the entire time, I could see how happy and relaxed Lincoln was. I absolutely trust her with my dog and would leave Lincoln with her again without any hesitation. Highly, highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 💓

Nicole is amazing with animals and extremely responsible! She has watched my cat on numerous occasions and I trust her to come on time, give him love and attention, and be respectful of my space. I would 10/10 recommend her to care for others pets. She loves animals and is a responsible dog owner herself!

Nicole is a wonderful dog sitter! She has had her own pup Duke for 2+ years now and goes above and beyond to care for him. She takes him out on routine walks, gives him all the love and affection. She has also watched my big dog Stevie numerous times and I have always felt 100% safe and comfortable with Nicole watching her. She is amazing! Def recommend!!

Nicole has watched my puppy a couple times now and always does a great job. The fact that she has her own dog is a huge benefit because he provides additional entertainment and companionship for the dogs she watches. Being a dog owner herself provides me with the additional confidence I need to entrust her to care for my fur baby!
