Yoga Teacher Who Loves Dogs!
Pet care experience
I have tons of experiences with all animals, and dogs in particular. I grew up with labs and one very special hound-mix, Bean. I have raised two puppies over the last four years, including my 2 year old, Opal (a lab-hound rescue). Opal is a good companion, she is very sweet, social, has excellent manners, and knows tons of tricks (we are currently working on cleaning up our own toys)! My schedule is very flexible; I work at home part-time, teach yoga evenings and weekends, and am in school part-time. Opal and I would love to invite your dog to join us for some nice long walks in the woods, naps, and snuggles. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! For early drop offs (before 8:00 am) and for late pick-ups (past 8:00 pm), I charge a partial boarding fee of $36. Please message me with any questions. I live in an apartment building, where noise travels easily. While we take multiple long walks (45-60 mins) in the woods each day, we also spend some time hanging out at home. In an effort to be a considerate neighbor, I cannot accept dogs that are very barky or that have separation anxiety and don't do well when I need to leave home. Thank you for understanding!

Reviews
Nicole took great care of our energetic puppy Corley, and was very flexible and understanding about pick-up time when our return flight was delayed. We would definitely love for Corley to stay with her again!
Nicole was AMAZING with Nugget during the weekend. She was really responsive to texts and provided photos and updates about him while we were away. Nugget loved playing with her dog, Opal. Nicole is so kind and really takes care of other dogs as if they were her own. I will definitely use her services again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter.
Very diligent and cooperative. Communication went great. My dog had a great time.
About Nicole G.
Communication
Skills
Information Nicole G. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog have basic obedience training, including loose leash walking training? Are they potty trained? Do they bark or chew things in the house? Do they get along well with other dogs? Are they reactive or fearful?
A typical day
I live across the street from Glover Archbold trail and a few blocks away from Whitehaven field (which is the best impromptu dog park in the world as far as I am concerned). I will keep your dog on leash and can either take them for a walk around the neighborhood or through the woods. We have lots of toys and treats (but none given for free, and only with permission)!
