Pup loving sitter
Pet care experience
I have 3 kiddos (dogs) who I love dearly, 2 Yellow Labs and a Doberman. My every day revolves around their schedule and their needs. I have a decent amount of experience with an array of dog health issues. My one boy has orthopedic issues and has been through two major surgeries in which I work with him doing physical therapy all the time. I also have a lab with multiple myeloma (cancer). This has presented so many ups and downs that has provided me with so much education in caring for him including giving him oral chemo. Lastly, my Doberman who is so amazingly smart suffers from anxiety. Through professional education I have learned to help my dobie cope with her anxiety and provide for her in a manner that keeps her happy. With all of this being said I have a vast background in different pup issues that pop up along the way. My dogs are very routine oriented so I am used to catering to a schedule and understand how important this is. I also enjoy exercising my dogs daily. My boys take walks and my dobie and I jog. I am open to doing either for your pup!
Reviews
Nicole was wonderful with our lab. She followed all of my requests (as a paranoid dog mom), sent pictures and updates often, and our dog loved her! It takes me a lot to trust someone when it comes to my pets and I highly recommend Nicole!
Nicole is a wonderful, responsible, giving and caring person. She loves her dogs very much. She has raised three beautiful dogs of her own and takes excellent care of her dogs. Her dogs are treated as family, and I would trust my dog in her care completely. I would recommend Nicole as a sitter!
Nicole is the most passionate person I known for caring for pets. She provide the love and care for all dogs like they are her dogs. I have known Nicole for over 30 years and never had a person who loves dogs like she does. I know when our dogs were in care, I didn't have to worry because she give 100% attention to them.
Nicole is the biggest dog lover I have ever met. The care and time she spends with her own dogs is like know one I know. She will do anything to make sure any dogs in her care will be safe. If there was anyone I would trust with my dogs it would be Nicole!

I will not be able to provide pet services within my house due to my three dogs BUT I’m more than happy to provide for your pet at your home.
Information Nicole H. would like to know about your pet
Prior to a house stay or even walking session I’d like to know the dogs routine, likes and dislikes, food allergies (if applicable), etc. This will allow for a more positive experience for both your pup and myself. My goal is to make sure your dog feels 100% comfortable in my care by keeping routine for them. I know how important this is due to my own Dobie’s anxiety.
A typical day
I love the outdoors so getting out for walks or a run is no problem! If your area does not have a safe place to walk, with your permission we will travel to a local park with trails to exercise. On those rainy days I love to do mind exercises with my dogs inside so they do not get board. I love to teach them new things with positive reinforcement (treats). It makes for a fun time for both me and the pup! And of course we cannot forget the rainy day snuggles and belly rubs.

I do work a full time job from home therefore my schedule is flexible for house visits as well as pet sitting in your home. At times my job may require me to travel therefore I cannot take on any tasks when I’m out of town.
