Vet Tech, Dog Trainer, Pet CPR Cert

Pet care experience

I have worked in Veterinary Medicine since 2015 as a Vet Tech. I am a CPDT Certified dog trainer and have been working with dogs for over 10 years. I compete in many venues of dog sports with my own dogs. I have taken multiple dogs to championship level titles. I am animal CPR certified and am trained in animal first aid. I can provide care for any pet from new puppies to old dogs requiring fluids or administration of medications. I work at an exotic animal Vet Clinic and can care for any pets from chickens to horses to snakes and to parrots. I currently work full time at a Vet Clinic and am able to offer lunch time visits and overnight stays after my shifts. Drop in visits and daily walks are welcome. Boarding dogs take priority as I have turned my house into a private doggie AirBNB. I can seamlessly adapt to your dog's needs, making sure that they can remain comfortable in their own home or mine while you're away. I bring the doggie summer camp to you!

We cannot recommend Nicole enough. She was in constant communication with us about everything. She cared for our geriatric dog with such love and managed our younger dogs with ease. Thank you Nicole!

Nicole really does above & beyond. Incredible person. So so fortunate to have found her. This is our second appointment & it was just as good as the first. We will continue using Nicole for all of our pet sitting needs!

I’ve rebooked with Nicole many times. There’s no one else I trust with my dogs.

Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your pet has any "quirks". Do they bark, dig or have any separation anxiety? Are they good with people? Other dogs?

A typical day

We can sit on the couch and cuddle, or play fetch if that's more your speed. I can teach tricks, play tug and go on long walks around the neighborhood.
