Loving and reliable pet sitter

Pet care experience

I grew up around animals at one point my family was fostering 16 animals!! I have worked with rescues caring for dogs, volunteer at the Zoo shadowing a vet where I took care of everything from giant tortoises to bears. All you need to know is that at a house party, I am the one sitting on the floor playing with the dog.

Nicole was so awesome! She was super sweet, considerate, accommodating and communicative. We had a last minute change to our booking and she was able to accommodate. She is quick to respond to messages and reaches out with questions when needed to make sure she can provide the best care for our baby. We were so happy with Nicole’s pet care and felt so at ease that our pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend Nicole, and will definitely look to her for future pet care as I travel quite a bit for work, and we have been looking for a trustworthy and permanent sitter that is comfortable w/ our high energy dog and that our dog is comfortable with. We came home to a happy pup and couldn’t ask for more!

Nicole, you have been amazing with my dog Charlie! You provided me with very detailed Rover card and just made sure he was feeling comfortable! I sense the love you have for animals! Hope to have you again soon! Thank you!! ??

Nicole is a fantastic sitter! I had her for 1 check in a day for my 2 cats while I was out of town for the week and they loved her. She sent thoughtful notes about them every day and so many pictures. I'm already planning on having her sit again!

At the moment I don’t care for pets at my home. We have a new rescued cat, Winona, and she is still adapting to us and our home.

Information Nicole P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has special needs. My senior dog takes oral medication and injected medication so I am familiar with that. Besides that, please let me know if any triggers/stressors and of course what are their favorite things to do!

A typical day

When dropping in to check on your fur baby I will make sure than their water and food is alright, that they are doing well and there is playtime! Does your dog have a favorite activity? That’s what we are doing. Right now I am not boarding dogs at my home.
