Seeking adventure partners!

Pet care experience

Labor Day Weekend Availability!!!! I’m fully booked Friday and Monday morning with repeat clients but feel free to reach out to me if you need help on Saturday or Sunday. I’m an active animal lover that enjoys taking dog friends along on my many trips to the beach and hiking in the Bay Area. I believe it is important for dogs to get mental and physical stimulation by exploring the world around them. l live with a wonderful dog who would happily provide glowing recommendations :) I work 2 short shifts a week (~3-4 hours) as a server and take online classes part-time. My week is very open and flexible. I know how important it is to know your pet is covered when you commit to travel plans. That is why it means a lot to me that I can say I've never canceled on anyone last minute or otherwise. For this reason, I only book out about 2 months in advance. Thank you for understanding. I go to either the dog park, the beach, or on a hike almost every day. Since it can get quite hot here during the daytime I restrict walks to the morning or evening during the warmer months. I try to keep rules consistent whenever possible. Let me know what restrictions or preferences you have and I will do my best to accommodate them. I have invested a lot into creating a great environment and ensuring that your pet will be as comfortable as possible in my care.

Nicole was fantastic. She was kind, communicative and sent lots of pictures of my cats while she dropped in. She did everything I asked for and was very accommodating, I will definitely be booking with her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m not currently taking on boarding clients but in my home I have invested a lot into making it a safe and comfortable environment. I have gates up to block off the kitchen and keep the bathroom doors shut. This helps prevent curious pups from trash digging. I also have a covered patio, doggie pool, and outdoor dog lounger for spending some time in the fenced back yard. I have A LOT of toys and chews of various sizes and styles.

Information Nicole P. would like to know about your pet

Are there any things that make your dog more or less anxious/comfortable in a new environment. Do they have any allergies? Are you confident in their ability to be recalled if allowed off-leash? Anything else I should know :)

A typical day

We like to take trips to seascape beach for some off-leash beach time. Some of our favorite hiking places are Henry Cowell State Park, Pulgas Ridge Open Space Preserve, and Redwood Regional, There is also a great dog park near my house.

I’m currently a part time student and I work as a server 2 nights per week (shifts are generally about 3.5 hours) So, that gives me a lot of flexibility and free time to focus on pet care.
