I'd Love to Meet Your Loved Ones!:)

I love Gardening and Animals. I have spent most of my life caring for pets and have enjoyed it fully. I love to garden every day and absolutely love dogs and cats as they bring joy into my life. Dogs especially love my garden. I have references available so please ask if you would like them. I pay special attention to all pets needs and give them my absolute full focus. I treat clients pets as I would want my own to be treated. I hope you can fully appreciate that as I think it is important. I would love to have the opportunity to be you preferred Pet Sitter. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Also, I do observe all US Federal Holiday’s so I will be charging Holiday prices for them. I also don’t go into Baltimore City for any dog sittings, so please don’t try and book me if you live in Baltimore City, MD!! Thanks for your understanding!! I look forward to meeting you and your loved one(s) Thank you. Nikki P.S. I am becoming very busy right now if you can please let me know as soon as possible when you will need me even a few months from now and book me. Thanks Nikki

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced backyard but I don’t like to use it because it needs repairs so I don’t have full confidence in it and I love to walk with your pup’s anyways. I understand that sometimes you might have a pup that is highly reactive to other dogs and prefer they go in the backyard so I usually will be outside with them on the leash. I enjoy to walk and get out their energy and take them to our nearby park if they are good with other dogs. But if they aren’t I will play and walk them so they get all the energy out and get exercise that they need. I hope to be getting my fence fixed soon so I feel more comfortable with letting the pups in the backyard without a leash. I love to play and give lot’s of love and attention with your pups! I will send you lots of pictures and updates on how they are doing! So that you will never worry about them! They will be happy and healthy. And I will give them any special attention they need if you have any medicine or ear cleaning or bathing need’s for them. Thanks for choosing me to care and love your family!

Nicole is super reliable and does her best to accommodate last minute requests. Our kitten Lucy is always well taken care of with her.

Nicole was awesome! When I first met Nicole, I had an immediate connection with her, and that held true while she was house-sitting for me. This was the first time I was away for 10 days, and while on previous vacations, I was constantly thinking about how Duke was doing, I knew he was being very well cared for with Nicole. She kept in touch the whole time and sent me pics and texts throughout the entire trip; she even shoveled my snow on the back deck to make it easier for Duke to go out!

Nicole did a great job with our pets...walking our pup and administering medicine to one of our cats. She was very good at sending pictures and keeping us informed of what was going on with our pets and in our home.

Nicole was so attentive to Sydney and sent us many thoughtful photos during our time away so we knew our doggie was happy! Sydney loved her and it gave us great comfort while we were away. She is a great communicator and left everything ship shape in our home for when we arrived back.

Jessica was amazing. She made herself available on very short notice. She was very efficient, great communication, and I was able to focus totally at the conference as she was super responsible. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter.

Schedule

I currently work full time at a golf course 4-5 days a week for about 8-9 hours day and am able to do whatever you need me to do even if I have to take some time off to be able to stay home with them the whole time. I do have a doctors appointment once a month so I will need to be gone for a couple hours for that. Otherwise I can be there for the rest of the time if needed.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Nicole can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I usually get along with all animals big and small even dogs that aren't usually able to get along with most others. I'm impartial when it comes to breeds. I can charm even the most skittish animals.
