Pet care experience

Loving pet care with experience!

I grew up in the country with many dogs in the family. My parents bred and showed champion Afghan Hounds as well as boarded other breeds of dogs. I have raised and cared for many amazing dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits, salamanders and a gold fish named Charlie. My absolute love for all animals and my special bond with my 18 year old rescue, Fez, lead me to managing a local doggy daycare and boarding facility. I learned so much about all kinds of breeds and mixes, puppies and seniors, managing medications, nutrition, play time, and their beautiful personalities. What a wonderful experience that was! My deep love for dogs, hiking, the outdoors and the Oregon weather makes dog walking a true pleasure for me. I can take dogs to Forest Park or just around the neighborhood sidewalks and trails. I have a very flexible schedule and I am happy to take walks, pop in for a visit or look after in your home while you are away. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your best friend and taking great care of them.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is the number one priority period. I have a very calming demeanor and can sense what my pet partner is feeling in their environment. My eyes and ears will be focused on your pet and our safety at all times inside or outside, staying 5 steps ahead with their care.

House Sitting • apr. 17, 2026

Nicole was very professional and flexible, and she communicates very well. I travel for work and I worry about my dog whenever I’m gone, thankfully, this time I didn’t have to worry as I knew she was in good hands with Nicole.

Nicole was fantastic! We did a trial run short trip with her sitting our two littles, but kenneled the larger doggie. She gave them their diabetic shots without any issues, followed the instructions well, sent us pics and had great communication. She has a calm demeanor and the dogs seemed to be very comfortable with her. She left the house cleaner than we left it! Highly recommend, will definitely ask her to sit again (if she'll have us!) Thank you Nicole! :)

Nicole took care of Charlie for 8 days at our home during spring break. She is wonderful. Communication was very good. She gave us daily updates with photos. Our house is very clean when we get back. Charlie loves Nicole. We will definitely ask Nicole again.

Very happy with our experience having Nicole dog sit for us. She is responsible, professional, and caring. We knew our dogs were having a blast with the regular updates and communication. The house was also very tidy when we returned home. Would definitely recommend Nicole to other pet parents looking for a sitter.

Nicole is so very responsible, congenial, and definitely loves animals. I hardly knew she had been at my home for a week, for every thing was in its place and clean. I think my dog misses her.

I believe in the meet and greet to see if we are all a good fit. I value open, honest communication and will respect your wishes when it come to the care of your best friend. I would love to hear about their personality, likes and dislikes. Any favorite tricks? Do they like to learn new things or prefer to just take in all the sights and smells? How do they prefer to be handled? Any Illnesses, pain or special care?
