Pet care experience

Love to entertain your pup

I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, grew up with and cared for springer spaniels through college. Can’t have my own pups so I dog sit for family/friends whenever I can. Happy to groom, play, walk with your dog. My friends all know me as an animal lover and I’m first on their list for dog sitting or just to check in on their pup. I have no allergies or aversions, any size dog is great. Available most afternoons, daily I go from Maple Grove to Albertville so any place in between is perfect to stop. I have a soft heart for pets and love them all, your pup will be in great care with me. Thank you for caring for your dog! Thanks!

Nicole was amazing. One of my dogs was skittish. She spent extra time with him. Great communication. Would recommend her.

Our first experience with daycare and it was great! Lots of pictures and a very happy tired pup at the end of the day.

Safety, trust & environment

My rescue dog was incredibly anxious when I got her. She tried to get out of her collar all the time. I had to carry her to the car and go very slow with her to start. I am very experienced easing into a relationship with a reactive dog. I have a fenced in backyard that I’m happy to share if that’s what works best for your dog.

My 3 year fur baby is a springer spaniel+border collie mix=all kinds of energy. I do sniff walks, fetch, agility games, hide and seek, basic training practice, and the underrated just sitting and watching others.
