Hi, I’m Nicole! Animals have been the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. Today, I share my home with two senior dogs and two senior cats. I’ve fostered eight dogs and even a lionhead bunny - and have caught and reunited many more lost animals. My background in animal rescue has given me invaluable experience - from caring for pets of all ages and temperaments to creating a calm, safe space for anxious, shy, or special-needs animals. I’m especially proud of my ability to connect with nervous pets and even help catch lost or stray animals using patience and a calming energy. Over the years, I’ve become skilled at administering medications (oral and topical) and supporting senior pets through their unique needs. What You Can Expect Reliable, punctual care (I keep my service area small so I’m always on time). Comfort with dogs, cats, and small animals. Expertise with senior, anxious, rescue, and special-needs pets. Flexible scheduling: I work from home and can often provide midday visits. Respect for your routines: I’ll follow your directions carefully, so your pet feels secure and cared for. Your pets deserve someone who treats them with the same love and respect you do, and I would be honored to be that person. As pet parents, we all have our unique "parenting" styles. It's important that your wishes are respected and I promise to do just that, as I would want the same for my animals. I am open to as much detail as you would like to provide on what you'd like your pet to do, to have, to go, etc.
