Let me walk/run your pup!
Pet care experience
I would love to take a leisurely stroll with your small or senior pup, or we can turn it up a notch with a jog or run for our furry friends that need to burn a little more energy. I have two large dogs of my own and have experience with trail hikes and street walks with up to four medium/large dogs, sometimes with a few smaller friends in the mix. My walks focus on leash adaptation and following the "rules of the road" either as an individual or a pack (i.e. bathroom etiquette, understanding limitations and interactions, appropriate activity levels, etc.). I have worked with my own rescue dog on food and dog aggression and enjoy the training process. I truly believe a properly exercised and trained dog is a happy dog - consistent positive treatment and reinforcement is key and every dog deserves a chance (or two or three)!
Reviews
Nicole was AMAZING! I have two cats who are very very nervous and usually run and hide whenever a stranger comes in, but they adored her! She took the time to get to know them, and she really spent quality time with them. She was incredibly flexible on timing and really just the perfect cat sitter all around! She took some fantastic pictures and was incredibly communicative. She will always be the first person I ask when I need to go away!
Nicole is AMAZING!! She was so helpful and attentive to the needs of our pups, would recommend 100%!
Nicole is always so available and accommodating! And my pup loves her!
Always great!

Safety, trust & environment
I understand my way of doing things may not be the same way you do things - and I respect that! If there are particular commands/routines you adhere to with your pet, then please do mention it and I'll be sure to follow your household rules.
Information Nicole G. would like to know about your pet
No size or breed preference. I can work with dogs with disabilities, medical needs, and general training assistance. Please let me know in advance if your dog is reactive or aggressive towards other animals or people - even those pups deserve a good walk, but I need to be prepared to foresee/handle those situations if they were to arise.
A typical day
What does your fur baby enjoy?! I love a leisurely walk, a solid jog, a game of backyard fetch, or a snuggle sesh. With your approval I can take a pup to a stimulating walk/jog on a bike path or a simple and sweet cruise around your neighborhood.
