I love having dog company! My two dogs love having new friends over as well! I do work graveyard 3-4 nights a week. My daughter is always home and I'm home every couple hours so I am available to accept any day and times. We're very flexible on that.

Information Nicole H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs or behavior requirements that I can help with during the stay. How does he/she sleep? Kennel or bed/blanket on the floor or with you? Can he/she be left alone with other doggos for a short period time? And what food/treats are ok?

A typical day

We always do a morning and evening walk. If your dog is more energetic I'll walk longer to get some energy out. And if its nice we can go to the dog park. So let me know if you'd be ok with me taking your fur baby to some dog park fun.

Pet care experience

I love animals of all kinds! I grew up in a home that always had dogs and cats. My parents taught me how to be a responsible pet owner very early in life. We currently have two dogs and one cat, bunny, hamster, lots of fish and are all very well taken care of. My daughter and I love playing with animals and walking dogs of all breeds/ages. We have a home that has access to a fenced yard where they can get out for fresh air. My pets are treated as my children and so is any pet I care for. Opening up my schedule to love on some more family pets like my own! Our home or yours you can trust your babies will be in good hands!
