I’m currently a masters student with plenty of time to go on walks and explore the parks. I am used to fitting in two 1 hour walks per day and exploring different parks around the city. I am also a reliable student that can house sit while you are away. I am happy to adapt to you and your pups schedule and preferences as needed!

Information Nicole P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any important information about your dog, such as if they do not get along with other dogs, prefer off leash walks or have a special release word before eating meals. I am happy to discuss anything beforehand!

A typical day

I love a nice morning walk before continuing on with my day. These walks vary from longer hikes to playing in the park with a ball. Then a big breakfast to fuel the day! Usually the pups need a break, so I either study or head to class while they sleep and replenish their energy. A nice afternoon/evening walk is on the menu next! Followed by a good dinner, a few more treats, play time, and belly rubs to fall asleep before doing it all again tomorrow.

Pets

Great walks, treats, & lots of love

Pet care experience

I have had the privilege of taking care of my own high energy dog, Luna, for 8 years. She has taught me all about caring for animals, such as what counts as a good walk, which treats are the best, how important belly rubs are, and that the couch is a shared space. I have trained her to have a strong recall as we go for many off leash walks. I also have experience training the basic obediences as puppies and teenage dogs, giving medication, and following medical procedure pre-cautions and guidelines. My neighbours have also asked me to look after and care for their pets along the way as well. I’m hoping to bring my knowledge of taking care of her to the dogs in town and give them the best walks and care.

Nicole is a kind human who genuinely loves dogs and it shows. It gave us such peace of mind on our last trip to know our 2 dogs were so well taken care of. She texted updates and pics of the dogs and they looked so happy and tired. You could tell they were exercised and cuddled. She is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. We couldn't recommend her enough. Outstanding!

My experience with Nicole was absolutely awesome. You can tell she is an absolute dog lover. She is always happy to take my 100 pound black lab on off leash walks whether it is swimming, hiking, or fun activities that he may like. I feel I can trust her because she is so good with re-calls and using treats. My dog always comes home happy and ready for a nap. She is also very organized with any kind of overnight situation. She gives me updates whenever I may ask or when I don't. She's attentative and has been extremely helpful the last couple of years. I couldn't recommend her more to anyone who is looking for a dog sit, dog walk, or boarding.
