Veterinary Technician w/ Experience

I have 14+ years experience in the veterinary field. Learning about animal behaviors, preventative care and physical health is a passion of mine. I am a very well rounded animal enthusiast that loves to stay busy. Some of my extracurriculars include training my Australian shepherd, whether it’s dock diving, agility or overall obedience. I will hold each pet to standards that support good manners, so some training may be associated with my services. I strive to exercise your fur babies intellectually as well as physically. I am very detailed oriented, and consider myself very observant. I’m not afraid to communicate and ask questions regarding your pets’ needs.

Nicole went above and beyond caring for our five cats, even making it out during snowstorms. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our pets. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands.

Nicole was great with Buster! You can tell she has a love for dogs. Great communication and she was great with him. He definitely had a good time getting out for some mid day adventures, we’re looking forward to working with her again!

Schedule

I would be caring for your pet around my typical work schedule, which is M-F ~8-6pm, but I can always drop in mid day during lunch. Communicating your expectations so I may practice proper time management is important for a successful and stress free pet sitting job.

Typically I like to work with my dog mentally and physically. This includes hikes, swimming, obedience training, dock diving and agility. I have obstacles at home and at the gym. When we aren’t working out together, we are utilizing tricks or food puzzles for intellectual stimulation.

I have fostered dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes and ages. That experience has led to a variety of knowledge and experiences that allow me to problem solve with animals. Anything about your animals behaviors or routine is valuable information!
