I’ll try to not steal your pets!

Pet care experience

Since I was a kid I have always had a strong gravitation towards animals, warm blooded or not. I have taken care of my childhood dog since I was 9 years old and recently got a new dog. I have experience with elderly dogs and puppies.

Nicole was great! She responded quickly to our short-notice request. Nicole sent pictures of our pups and gave us an update mid-stay! We felt confident leaving our puppies with Nicole when we saw her love for dogs and excitement for watching them. We would definitely use her again! Thank you, Nicole!

Nicole was awesome! She took great care of our Havanese while we were on campus for the weekend. She was so accommodating of our schedule. Our dog had a fun stay with her! I highly recommended Nicole for pet-sitting!

Nicole is AMAZING with animals. Even animals that she has met for the first time calm down with her within a couple minutes. My dog can take a bit of time to warm up to people but she is always so excited to see Nicole. Nicole also enjoys keeping up to date with the latest pet care tips and tricks and informs me about things that I, as a dog owner of 9 years, had no idea about.

Nicole is a great pet caregiver! She is very knowledgable and experienced when it comes to animals, specifically dogs. Nicole is patient and understanding when it comes to caregiving.

Safety, trust & environment

My house that I am currently sharing with 4 girls is pretty spacious, great for large dogs! The living room is a great place to play if the weather is not promising on a certain day. I am an attentive person who can follow directions efficiently, and I prioritize furry friends in my house and in any of my clients’ houses.

Information Nicole K. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know what kind of temperament your pet has around strangers, any medical conditions, and if your pet is potty trained.

A typical day

I am looking forward to going on long walks with the dogs in my care in the neighborhood, on campus, as well as forests and gardens in the area. On the walks I want to have play breaks where the dogs can experience the most fun of being able to interact with their favorite toy and my playful nature. For the cats under my care, I will try to create a playful environment in my home with the toys provided and if permissible by the owner and the furry creature itself, go on walks as well.

I am currently a college student whose schedule is pretty flexible right now. As the weather is getting warmer I am excited to walk as many dogs as I can and creating bonds in the process.
