Home FT w/ lots of doggy playtime!

Pet care experience

I'm a lifelong animal lover who is home full time and is looking to make caring for your pets my full time job! This means that I ensure I will be home and present for a majority of the stay, if not the whole time, to meet the needs of your pet and your expectations for care. I have no professional experience caring for animals, but I do have a lifetime of experience loving dogs and cats and creating a very happy home for them. In the last 21 years, I have owned 4 dogs and 5 cats, as well as provided care for many of our stray neighborhood cats. Animals are truly my passion and I'm a firm believer that we get back what we put in; our furry companions bring so much joy to my life and I'd like to think I return the favor. I currently have a 3-year-old female AmStaff mix, Bella, who I adopted 2 years ago. She is a very mild tempered and sweet pup that loves having companions to play in our large yard with. Whether you have a 130lb giant or a 10lb lap dog, young puppy or old senior, your pup will be as loved and respected as my own. They'll be begging to come back! As a guest in my home, your dog will be provided with a kennel, a bed, a variety of toys, treats, and lots of love! My hours of availability are as follows - Doggy daycare: 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. Drop in visits: 24 hours a day, I'd love to help those of you who work overnight! ❗Any daycare booking exceeding 10 hours will incur an additional $5. ❗Any overnight bookings exceeding the 24 hour period by 4 hours will incur an additional $10 (this is to compensate for a partial day of daycare). Head on over to @nicole.furfriends on Instagram to check out all the cute faces! (*please let me know if you do not approve of photos of your pet being posted)

Nicole is so thoughtful and takes the best photos!! She made sure to wear a mask and wipe down everything as she left — so happy I found her!

Nicole sent pictures of my dog and several dogs posing and reported my dog was having fun playing!! He's been there twice and seems very happy. She brought my dog home when I wasn't able to get him on time. I will use her again!

Nicole is absolutely amazing! She is very caring, detailed and sends me great updates every day whether my dog is being checked on at my house or staying at her house. The other dogs she takes care of are so fun and really helped to tire out my pup! It was so nice having Nicole watch Stevie when I went out of town for the weekend because I wasn’t stressed or worried at all about leaving my dog with her.

Information Nicole G. would like to know about your pet

To ensure your pet will be as comfortable as possible, I would like to know how they interact with other dogs that may be bigger/smaller, female/male, puppies/seniors as I may have multiple dogs on any given day. Does your dog show any food or toy aggression? Are they on any medications or have allergies? What is their feeding schedule? Do they have a tendency to slip from their collar on walks or try and dart past doors?

A typical day

While under my care, your pup will have lots of time to socialize and play with my dog Bella and others I may have in my home. We can take walks around my neighborhood, and if the weather is nice, we can take a trip to the local park or head up to horsetooth for an adventure! If activities don't suit your pup, there will be plenty of time for naps and cuddles.
