Safety, trust & environment

It’s important for me to be informed about daily expectations and each individual pet in order to establish safety and trust. I believe quality time and respect of space and needs are essential to providing a comfortable and secure sitting!

Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have any breed preferences. I love them all equally! Please let me know in advance if your pet has any triggers, dislikes, allergies and personality traits that I should be aware of. Knowing this will provide for a more wholesome and caring experience. I’ll also be prepared for having the best time with them!

A typical day

Pet care experience

Howdy! I am a substitute teacher, student, artist and esthetician. I used to be a nanny and baby sitter! I grew up always having either cats, fish or dogs! I’ve even had hens at one point! I have a background in child care and development so I am pet and family friendly! I initially went to school for chemical and environmental engineering but switched to education. I have a deep reverence for animals and nature and I love being outside! I ask questions and love to learn! Communication is very important to me. I'm very dedicated to providing a reliable, clean, safe, calm and supervised environment to play and feel loved!

Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She was communicative, reliable, and highly professional throughout the entire experience. She gave us so much peace of mind with how patient and understanding she was with our dog, who can sometimes be wary of strangers. It was clear she took the time to make our pup feel comfortable and cared for. On top of that, she left our home in excellent condition. We truly appreciated her thoughtful care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Second time having Nicole house sit, she was great at updating me daily with photos and notifying me with how the day went. She left my place in great condition, cleaning up after herself. Over exceeded my expectations and would trust her to watch my animals again
