Social Worker. Pet Lover. Reliable.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m currently a 26-year-old looking to make extra money to save for a future home (I just had a baby boy last year!) by taking great care of any furry friends you might have. I was born and raised in this area, am bilingual, and have always had a soft spot when it comes to pets. I raised my 15-year-old Bichon Frise named Frosty (who just passed away recently) and have a two-year-old doggo named Zuko so I am comfortable with pets of all ages and sizes! I’m responsible, organized, a great listener, and am very open to hearing all your pet’s needs and helping out as best as I can. I have a flexible schedule and am more than willing to work with you to best fit your preferences and needs! Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. Your babies will be in great hands :) Thank you!

We were very happy with the doggie care Nicole provided. We liked that she took time with our dogs on a holiday! We also liked that she sent us pictures and video. It was very comforting to see that our dogs were in good hands!

Nicole was great! My puppy Milo had a great time with the family, Milo had a good play time with Nicole’s pup. She was very accommodating and I would love to have her puppy sit Milo again.

Safety, trust & environment

I think a key aspect of providing safety and trust is to be well aware of what exactly I’m walking into and what the pet is used to doing! For this reason, I like to speak with clients via phone (or in person if you prefer!) beforehand so that I have a strong understanding of the pet.

Information Nicole I. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have any breed preferences! I would definitely want to know as much as I can about the dog though- what are their likes/dislikes, favorite toys, favorite places to walk, triggers, etc. so that I can ensure that they have the best experience.

A typical day

I want to make sure that the dog does his normal activities and that nothing feels different to them. We’ll play their favorite games and do whatever the dog loves to do!
