Fur-Tastic Puppy Vacation Heaven
Pet care experience
I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. I've owned dogs of various sizes, from Golden Retrievers to tiny Chihuahuas. I began volunteering at Helen Woodward to assist with rescues in 2020. After my 15-year-old Chihuahua passed away over 2 years ago, I also started fostering. Thanks to Teddy, my current shepherd-mix boy, I earned the title of 'foster fail.' Teddy, my sixth foster, captured my heart, and I couldn't bear to part with him. Teddy is the friendliest dog I've ever known; he adores both dogs and humans. He's highly active and will ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. We work from home and have a well-sized, fully-fenced yard with turf, providing an excellent space for your dog's needs. Just give us a try, you'll find your furry babies can't wait to return to our home for another Fur-Tastic Vacation!!
Reviews
Our dog Bodhi just had his third stay with Nicole and he looks like he's been on an awesome retreat! Super happy and well taken care of :) We feel very lucky to have found such kind and caring people like Nicole, and her family. They are so welcoming of our dog and take him to wonderful places to run and walk. Their dog Teddy is so sweet as well. Love all the photos and videos Nicole sends while we're away. If you're looking for someone that cares for your pet as much as you do, I absolutely recommend Nicole!! It's a huge relief to leave our dog under her care :)
Great dog sitters! Kept me updated on how my Duboo was doing. Made sure she ate throughout her stay by even sharing some of their pet’s fresh food. Sent photos throughout the stay and Duboo was always walked! Would definitely rebook!
Ollie had a great time with Nicole and Teddy! Nicole did great with Ollie’s high energy and kept me updated throughout his stay
Nicole took such good care of our dog Bodhi! She and her pup Teddy made him feel so comfortable and welcomed in their lovely home. Teddy is the sweetest dog as well :) She sent lots photos and videos of their beautiful walks and fun playtime. Also great at communicating and double-checking on care. We are so happy to have found Nicole and grateful for her taking such good care of our dog. We have already re-booked her for future stays!
