A typical day

I'm an avid hiker and love taking dogs on the hikes. Beach is always fun with dogs too. Playing fetch with their toy of choice. I've always loved giving doggies little massages. And of course, belly rubs! For kitties - play time!! Cuddles and whatever they are into.

Pet care experience

I have 8 years experience as a pet/house sitter. A mix of cats, dogs, and even a few chickens. Sits have been anywhere from 3 days to 6 months. Once I sit for a pet, I become the owners go to sitter. I’ve been responsible for all the regular duties - feeding, taking for walks, playing with, administering medications (oral and iv), etc. I also have basic dog training experience. If needed, I can provide mail collection, regular house checks and plant care. Also, some owners have special requests that I can easily accommodate.

Nicole is very communicative and caring. She jumped in to help with a very last minute request. She is calm, and is really sweet with the dogs. We had to end the booking early due to concerns with my dog’s behavior but I’m thankful she was able to flag the issues early on. She is easy to work with and your dogs wills be in great hands.

After my first time having Nicole watch my pup it was clear that she would be my go-to sitter. She has now watched my dog a few times and I will continue to work with Nicole in the future! She sends me daily updates on him and so many photos & videos that I know he's having a great time. At this point, he may like her more than me as she takes him on many long walks & hikes every time she is here. During her last visit, my dog ended up having some stomach issues (he's a sensitive eater) and she was so easy to coordinate with in order to get new food delivered and ensure he was feeling better. I have complete confidence leaving my dog in Nicole's hands.

Nicole possesses a genuine love for animals. Pets in response are drawn to her. She is intuitive to their needs and can quickly discern if something is amiss. In that regard I have always felt safe about leaving my pets in her care. She is extremely trustworthy, responsible and tidy. And your pet is guaranteed that rub behind the ears. . Taking care of pets is more of a calling than a job for Nicole. I highly recommend her.

Nicole is an absolute godsend! Don’t know what we would do without her help And what’s amazing is our GSD/Doberman Pinscher mix adores her as well! She’s great with all animals and has dog sat for us on numerous occasions. We trust her completely. She’s clean, tidy and super respectful of your space. She even taught our dog to not pull as much on walks ! A great dog sitter/ dog walker/ house sitter / dog trainer! Thank you for everything Nicole
