Your pet and I will be besties!

Pet care experience

I had the privilege to grow up with dogs and have always loved them so much! I have cared for my own dogs, Muffin as a child, Toby for 15 years, and now my rescue boy Parker going on 4 years! I have also pet sat for many people with dogs of various breeds. I love to play with them and give lots of love and affection! My connection with animals is undeniable and I am so grateful to have them in my life :)

Nicole J is the perfect person for this position. She loves all animals and is the most caring person I know. Anyone can feel completely at ease having her take care of their pet in any capacity. Lori Green

Nicole is the most compassionate pet caretaker I have ever met! She has this aura about her that just makes dogs, cats, and even our fish smile. She is extremely trustworthy and passionate towards all animals and treats them better than most people treat their own children. I had an elder, special needs malamute that instantly formed a bond with her and would make him get a pep in his step every time she came over and would smile, do his happy waddle and lick her face the whole time. I cannot say enough good things about Nicole and the care / love she provides to pets!

Nicole watches our dogs when we go out of town on a regular basis. She absolutely loves animals and animals love her. She is very dependable and communicative. We always get pictures of our happy pups and we know they're in good hands. She is literally the person in the corner of the room playing with the dogs and spoiling them with all the loves.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard at my house and walk my dog with a harness but am comfortable with any type of leash. I will make sure they have food (depending on instructions) and water, that they pee and poop before I go, and get some play and petting time in!

Information Nicole J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. If they need to be fed and/or can have treats and if they are food aggressive. If they are well behaved on walks and ok with other dogs and if so where I can find the leash or harness and poop bags. Anything else that would help me provide the best care for your pup!

A typical day

First thing would of course be to excitedly say hello and then take them out to use the bathroom or walk if that’s what’s necessary. I would make sure they had water and food (if needed at time). Then we would play, whether it be fetch, tug of war with a squeaky toy, running around outside or lots of belly rubs and kisses! If dog is good with walks/other dogs would love to take them to parks, walk along the water at north shore or vinoy or even downtown!
