Friendly and Attentive Mom :)

Pet care experience

I’ve walked neighborhood dogs as a child, and throughout my adult years I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and other pets. I have a sincere love for animals, and give them the respect, warmth, and patience they deserve. I promise to follow any instructions and rules you have since I understand your pet is a dear member of your family. Thank you for your putting your trust in me!

Nicole has cared for our large pet family (2 parrots, 2 dogs, and 1 cat) several times since both me and my husband travel a lot for work. She has always followed our directions/routines, and the animals have grown to be familiar with her. It’s been great and makes us feel secure and comfortable to be able to have someone who cares about what she does to care for our beloved pets! Definitely recommend her :)
