But that's not all – I bring a holistic approach to pet care. I'm not just a certified animal reiki practitioner, but also a certified life coach. This unique combination allows me to create a harmonious and balanced experience for your beloved pets, keep your heart at ease while under my care, and ensure their physical and emotional well-being.

Nicole was amazing! She agreed to drop in on my dog on short notice after another rover sitter cancelled such a God send and she did so well with my Nala, who was diagnosed with diabetes and needs insulin. Would definitely call on Nicole again!

Nicole was amazing in being able to take care of Joey. She was wonderful at not only taking care of Joey but cleaning after her and making sure she was comfortable. She is trustworthy, accountable, change agile and excellent communicator. I will highly recommend her to everyone.

Nicole was great. Super friendly, conscientious and reliable. I had no concerns while away as I knew our cats were in good hands.

Sweet, honest, and compassionate caregiver, who has worked with and cared for pets and their parents for many years. She's bright, caring, reliable, and friendly.

Nicole (Nicky) is amazing with animals and you would be lucky to have her care for your babies! She is probably the most genuine, kind person I know and is truly invested in the welfare of anyone (human or animal) in her care! Not only that, she has a very gentle nature and is extremely patient. On top of it all, she has a ton of medical experience as a veterinary nurse, so if anything was to happen, or if your pet requires special medical attention, she can handle it! I'd trust her with my pets in a heartbeat.
