Friendly, caring and genuine!

Pet care experience

I grew up with two dogs. After living on my own I always offered to help care for my friends animals and I knew other pet owners would want someone who cared watching their animals. Now I try to reach anyone I can and help anyway I can by offering my custom services so while you’re away from your pet you know they’re being cared and loved for.

Our dog loves Nicole! After using her daycare service, we knew our dog was in great hands for an overnight stay. Nicole provides great updates and took our dog for some very fun walks. She truly cares for the pets she watches and it really shows!

Nicole took amazing care of our dog for the day. She sent lots of updates and made sure our dog had a great day filled with a long walk and lots of snuggles. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and would highly recommend her as a sitter!

Nicole sent me so many lovely photos while walking my pup! It was so nice to see him having a fun time!

Nicole was great! She kept me updated with messages and pics throughout the day. Silo was well cared for and tired when we got home.

Safety, trust & environment

My apartment has all wooden/tile floors. The building has a lot of pet friendly resources and plenty of places to walk. There are quite a few neighbors with their own pets so everyone is pretty understanding of the pet policies and pets themselves, but depending on the pet (friendly or not) we might not make friends. Working from home gives me the flexibility to dedicate more time and attention to pets when needed and pick up on their habits/needs quicker and be in tune with what they need.

Information Nicole J. would like to know about your pet

I like to know some basics of the pets before watching them. For example if they have any known/obvious preferences or if they have personality traits I should look out for. I like to know the absolute dont’s for each pet so I can personalize their routines to match their needs. Absolutely want to keep them on their regular schedules as much as possible.

A typical day

Depending on the dog we can either go for a jog, play in the park or long walks. I like to feel out what each pet needs. My preference is around their homes and exploring, but every pet is different! I even feel out if they don’t want to leave and just play inside.

I work remote Full-time so I can spend time dedicated to being in sync with the pets for their custom needs. I create my own schedule so I have the flexibility needed to be available for whatever may arise. In between my calls I make sure to spend time hanging out and engaging with the animals. I love a good distraction!! Whether they are chill and want to lounge or play around - I’m always ready for an interactive experience for them.
