Pups stay in their own home!
Pet care experience
I specialize in individual families, and provide overnight sitting in your own home. This is less stressful for the animals as they can stay as close to their routine as possible, and still be in their own familiar environment. I previously owned my own pet sitting business for 10 years and I have well over 15 years experience. I stopped to pursue other work, but I miss seeing the animals so I like to still do some pet sitting to get my fix! Because I work with individual homes, I also have extensive experience with special needs and elderly dogs. I know it can be scary to leave your furry babies with someone new. I care for your dogs and cats (and others) just as you would, with as much love as I give my own.
Reviews
Niki has been our dog walker for almost seven years now. She knows our dog as well as we do and takes excellent care of both him and our cat (when we're out of town). Our dog loves her and is always incredibly happy to see her. She is fantastic to our animals, and we have great peace of mind knowing that she's there for our animals when we can't be.
Niki was wonderful with our Lab/Pitbull mix Sasha. Sasha loved her time with Niki, and we loved Niki's experience and compassion for senior dogs, especially those with serious illness. Highly recommend her.
About Nicole H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Because care is in your home, the pets continue to feel safe. We're changing as little as possible of their own routine. I secure them, or let them have free reign, exactly as you would. Alarm systems and cameras are no problem.
Information Nicole H. would like to know about your pet
I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I do always ask for behavior history so that I know if a dog is aggressive, or has bitten before, what their triggers are.
A typical day
We'll walk around your own neighborhood. Sniff the same places, pee in the same places, stop at parks, etc. I'll take the exact path you do, if you like!

My schedule is very flexible as I'm currently working from home. Usually, as long as I have a 2 hour window to work with, all days are open.
