Tender Loving Care (TLC) Provider

Pet care experience

I have lived with and cared for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and other pets throughout my life. Having been raised in the country, I also made friends with our barnyard animals and raised a few wild animals that found respite care on the property. Our pets are treated like our children here at home. I was a volunteer with St John Ambulance as a Therapy Dog Handler with our family dog from 2015 to 2023, visiting and sharing our pet with those who needed something positive in their life to raise their spirits or to those who just desired some furry snuggles and TLC. I love animals and nature and you'll find me hiking regularly at the Conservation areas that are close to home. I have a deep connection with animals and have a very unique bond with them. Please contact me to chat about your fur baby and see if I would be a good fit to assist with any of your pets needs.

Thanks Nicole for taking such great care of Lajla while we were away. She is normally nervous around new people, yet she was at ease with you right away giving you kisses. Your good nature and professionalism was appreciated. We enjoyed the daily pictures of Lajla that you sent of your walks and snuggles. It set our minds at ease knowing that she was well looked after and that you were able to stay overnight so she had someone to snuggle with. I would recommend your services to anyone and would not hesitate to contact you again to look after Lajla. Thanks again!!!

Nicole is a huge animal lover at heart and has been since I met her. She has always taken special care of dogs; giving them lots of attention, walks and love. She is a true animal lover and loves her pets as well as other' since the moment she met them. Nicole is one of the few people I trust with my cat and dog and is a perfect fit for a loving and attentive pet caregiver!

Safety, trust & environment

Our yard is small but able to accommodate a few dogs without an issue. I regularly groomed our flat-coated retriever and cared for his needs as he aged (medication, vet visits, assistance in/out of car), accommodating him when he wanted extra love or a shorter walk in the neighbourhood vs a hike in the woods. I offer a very welcoming and positive energy in our home and expect your furry friend to be comforted while they visit with us or when I visit with them. I am trained in energy healing and animals (being very open spirited) are easily connected to me, which often creates a positive and stress-free union.

Information Nicole L. would like to know about your pet

I have owned medium and large dogs and tend to be particularly drawn to the larger canine group of friends. As long as your dog is friendly and doesn't chase my cat, I'm sure they will be happy spending some time with us and we'd be happy to have them.

A typical day

We have an assortment of dog toys and a fenced yard where I would play and interact with your dog during any day care or boarding services. I have a Conservation Area membership and visit a few times a week to hike and explore trails in the GTA. Your furry friend will be welcome to join me on any and all of my adventures. Some conservation areas have places for your dogs to swim and enjoy the water too! We also have a place near Turkey Point on Lake Erie where we spend our summers. Maybe your pet could come with us and spend time in the lake and hike in the Provincial Park there?

A healthy lifestyle is important for me and for my pets. I work from home part-time and can be available to assist in a variety of ways. We recently had to walk our loyal companion over the rainbow bridge in December 2023. When we were blessed with our dog, he was well taken care of and went for a walk at a minimum, twice a day (morning and late afternoon) and on weekends we generally spent an afternoon in the local conversation area or a trail system within the GTA. With your approval, I'd enjoy another furry companion to join me on my next adventure on the trails!
