Pet care experience

Ready to love your pup like my own!

I have an extended history of pet sitting beginning when I was younger. I always enjoyed the neighborhood dogs, and took joy in caring for them before I had my own dog. I grew up with a chocolate lab, and he was certainly a part of our family so I understand how much dogs can mean to a family or individual. In 2016 I started dog sitting and house sitting, so that way the dogs could be comfortable while owners were out of town. I certainly found that dogs are more at ease when they are in their home and relaxed!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for these pets like they were my own! I keep in constant communication with the owners to make sure they feel at ease (sending multiple pics every time I have a visit). I also like to ensure the pets are at ease- do they like to be scratched behind the ears or do they prefer belly rubs? Do they only go through the back door for outings, or do they prefer a walk around the front yard? Do they have a favorite treat or chew they enjoy? I truly take as many steps as possible for the pets to not feel their owner's absence. As far as trust and safety, I hold the utmost respect for the owners and the privacy in their own home.

I highly recommend Nicole! She dog sat and walked my boy Pippin, and she was absolutely amazing. She’s incredibly trustworthy, kind, and has such a great personality. She was very attentive, and it was clear Pippin loved her right away. Knowing my dog was in such good hands gave me total peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using Nicole again, she’s truly wonderful!

Nicole is so sweet with my baby Theo. She lets me know when she is headed for a visit and verifies there is nothing new each time she visits theo. She always updates me after her visit! I have been lucky to have her on short notices as well ! Definitely recommend her services!

Nicole did awesome with my dog, Hank! She asked great questions to gather important info about Hank’s normal patterns. She did a great job communicating how each walk went and was very flexible to my requests/instructions. I have no doubt she will take great care of your dog(s) if the need arises!

Nicole is a responsible, kind, and completely trustworthy young lady. She goes above and beyond to take care of our furry four legged little gal. She will follow, to the T, any specific directions one may have for your pet. You find no one as kind as Nicole!

I’d like to know if the dog has any “beef” with other dogs or people in the neighborhood/ building. Also, if they have any allergies, food preferences/avoidances, and if they have had incidents with other dogs. I also want to know what their personality is like! What do they love to do with you, what are their favorite activities, how can I make them feel most comfortable!
