Empathic animal lover!

Pet care experience

I was raised into a family that was heavily involved in animal rescue. I was introduced into 4-H at age 8, raising chickens, ducks, rabbits, exotic birds, dogs, cats, lizards, dairy cows and dairy goats! I have been an animal lover my entire life and can’t remember a day, that I wasn’t caring for a pet. I have had dogs of all breeds and sizes literally my entire life! I have much thought about a career as a veterinarian, but I had to humble myself and admit that I cannot stand to see an animal suffering in any way. I’m now currently on the path to becoming an Animal Reiki Practitioner! I will definitely be working with animals my entire life in one way or another. Inside my home, the doggie guest would be allowed on the furniture(as long as the guest is not destructive) for extra comfort or cuddles. Growing up raising many animals in 4-H, gave me a profound love for animals! 4-H also provided the education and work ethic necessary to care for pets responsibly, and empathetically. I also have 2 children that LOVE animals. However if the doggie guest is not compatible with children, sadly I would not be the right fit! I’m open to communication at anytime during the duration of the visit.

From the moment you meet Nicole you know she is a true animal lover! She took care of my two border collies and made them feel safe as soon as we got to her house. I loved all of the videos and photos she sent to show me how much fun they were having while they played. It made me feel so comfortable while I was away. Nicole is very sweet and kind, she went above and beyond any dog boarding I've experienced. I'm so happy I found her and I know my pups would love to stay with her again!

I do work mainly on the weekends so the doggie guess would have to be comfortable with being unattended for 3 to 4 hours. Another option is if the dog is comfortable with being created.
