Pet care experience
Paraplegic writer, ESA and your dog
I’ve had many doggies in my family since I was five. Since I’m a paraplegic (going on five years now) and I have an ESA medium sized doodle, we would love a low-key playmate to share our adventures with—even if it’s just cuddling up on the couch, watching a movie. Being a paraplegic, I have access to my own door to the fenced in backyard from my bedroom. My parents are always home—which is where they also work—and would provide help with cuddles during our nightly movie fests. (Note: we prefer well trained, good natured, willing-to-be-low-key, but able to run at least two miles doggies. A love of Charlie Chaplin, like my dog, is optional) Daily, my Hairy and I go on walks—me on a three wheel scooter OR a three wheel bike, and never ever if it’s more than 100 degrees. If it’s 90-100 degrees, I thoroughly hose down my doggie and bring lots of water, and aim for a trail or park with lots of grass. If your dog is well mannered, I will let them loose and we can play with the ball.)

Safety, trust & environment
Fenced yard, fountains, maybe 25 trees, no cats (bleah!), grass galore, and stairs to explore! Inside our environment is a working from home angelic nurse practitioner mom, a hard working engineer dad, and a writer (that’s me! Find my first book on Amazon called Prelude in N Minor as well as my other books!).
Ratings and reviews
Nicole is very sweet. Our dog Rocket had a fantastic time with her.
Nicole is amazing! So sweet. She did the best job taking care of my Alfie. She sent updates and videos so I knew my dog was doing well. Highly recommend!! Thank you Nicole!!
I wish I could give more stars!!! She was so amazing with my Bailey. I got pictures and videos and I could tell Bailey was being loved and was happy! Thank you so much for opening up your home and taking such good care of my girl!

Schedule
My parents and I all work our individual jobs at home. I’m a writer in a wheelchair with my dog Hairy, who is in every respect like the hero we all have read about and adore. As I work on my computer, Hairy sits on his bed in the corner, waiting for another doggie boarder to play with! Yet, daily, your dog and mine would get at least two walks/bike rides/3 wheeled scooter rides so they get exposure to the world outside. (Some soaking down may be required for heat purposes.) Lots of treats, loves, cuddles, and relaxation provided with a varied fenced-in backyard are always at hand.

- My doggy loves most other dogs that are varied in their personalities…so if your dog is like my Chewy (brain: ball-ball-ball-BALL-ball-ball…”) (may he rest in peace) he’ll probably quickly ignore him. He also doesn’t like dogs who are more muscular than him. That, my friends, is a no-no. Come to think of it, it’s a no-no for me as well. Arm wrestling to seal the deal might not be optional!
