Pet care experience

I grew up caring for animals

I believe dogs are better than people, I don’t know what we did to deserve them! All of my coworkers and family members have dogs, so literally most of our days include dog talk - since I don’t currently have a dog myself they help me stay up to date. I grew up with at least 2 dogs in my household at all times. Usually black labs and big winter dog mixes. There’s nothing I haven’t seen, smelled or experienced. I am very active so I will walk, run and play with your doggo for as long as desired. I am both a baby and dog whisperer (but dogs are kind of like babies, so it all makes sense to me lol). I work 9-5 during the week, but I usually work remotely so if you’re close enough, I can take on afternoon walks and cuddles, or you can leave them with me for the day - whatever is needed.

Safety, trust & environment

While I do not have my own yard there are plenty of trails and parks near by me. I operate in a very transparent manner, where open communication is highly encouraged. I'll always ask questions and/or ask permission. At your home I'll always be mindful of any safety practices you specify including checking any gates, ensuring doors are locked, keys are left where you've asked for them to be left, and I will always leave your home in the same or better condition than you left it.

Nicole was able to fill in for us on very short notice when another sitter cancelled. She followed our instructions while caring for our boisterous Doberman and treated our home with respect. We would highly recommend her services and hope to work with her again in the future!

Nicole did a great job sitting for our 3 cats. She was easy to communicate with and super reliable. She followed all our instructions, and we came home to a clean apartment and happy cats!

Nicole did an excellent job caring for our puppy and senior dog while we were out of town for a long weekend. She stayed in our home and provided us such peace of mind knowing that our doggies were in good hands. Will rebook in the future!

Nicole was awesome! She was very communicative and made our trip free of anxiety (especially given our dogs’ quirks). Would definitely ask Nicole to sit again. Thank you!!!!!

Was so great to have Nicole back to hang out with my dog. While he’s shy, he’s definitely warmed up to Nicole and it’s always comforting knowing he’s with someone who has earned his trust.

Nicole was a terrific help in watching my dog. She was very communicative and gave me peace of mind while being away from my dog sending photos and making sure he was taken care of. I will definitely be reaching out in the future as she won over my dog and, him being a shy guy, that’s a big accomplishment!
