Happy, Safe Pets While You’re Away

I’ve been caring for pets since high school and bring decades of hands‑on experience with cats and dogs of all sizes. I’ve cared for puppies/kittens, seniors, given diabetes shots, changed diapers, and handled everything from Sheepdogs to Chihuahuas. I have two small, friendly dogs, a senior cat, and a fully fenced backyard. If your pet is dog‑and cat‑friendly, I’m happy to host them short‑ or long‑term. I truly love animals of all kinds. I am happy to come over and check on your baby, take them for a walk (or stroll), throw a ball or play light flashing, or even daycare for them at my home.

Nicole was so awesome. I was always updated on how Bella was doing and she was quick to respond if I had any questions. I picked up a very happy puppy and I will be calling Nicole for future boarding requests.

Nicole was amazing with our daughter’s kitten! She opened her home and heart for him and sent pictures daily. We (especially our daughter) felt so much relief knowing he was being taken care of so well and that helped give us peace of mind during our vacation.

I have known Nicole for more than 25 years, and throughout that time, her deep love and genuine compassion for animals has always been clear. The care and attention she gives truly comes from the heart. Nicole has experience with a wide range of cats and dogs and is also a wonderful and dependable house sitter. On a personal level, Nicole has cared for my Miniature Wirehaired Dachshund whenever I’ve needed to travel for work or to spend time with family. While my dog is very sweet, he is definitely a true dachshund and can be quite a handful. Nicole always approaches him with patience and calm, and he returns to me happy, content, and clearly well loved. I never worry when he is in her care, because I know he is being spoiled—perhaps even more than I spoil him myself. Before my dachshund, I had a West Highland Terrier who became diabetic in his senior years. Nicole cared for him as well, making sure his insulin shots were given correctly and on time, which gave me incredible peace of mind. If you are looking for someone who will truly care for and love your animal as if they were her own, Nicole is absolutely that person.

Drop-In Visits • Apr 24, 2026

If you’re looking for someone who is truly compassionate and dependable, Nicole is an outstanding choice. She took wonderful care of my dog, Max, during a drop‑in visit when I had to be away unexpectedly. Her calm, attentive approach made a noticeable difference — Max was relaxed and happy when I returned. The thoughtful photo update she sent was an added touch that gave me real peace of mind. Nicole is someone you can confidently trust with your pet’s well‑being.

If you are looking for a friendly, caring, smart pet sitter - look no further! Nicole loves all animals, and she will make sure your fur babies are well cared for...okay, she will spoil them. She has watched over my cats and dogs and they all absolutely loved her. I never had to worry about anything and she kept me very informed on how they were dping daily. You will not find a better pet sitter!

Nicole was wonderful with my two dogs, a calm Golden Retriever and a very energetic Maltipoo, who is definitely a handful. She was so patient and caring with both of them and did an amazing job adapting to their completely different personalities. My Golden loves calm attention and affection, while my Maltipoo keeps everyone on their toes, and Nicole handled both of them beautifully. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were safe, happy, and well cared for. It’s clear that Nicole truly loves animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter on Rover.
