Pet care experience

All fur babies are family

I have a 4 year old Golden Retriever, who is super friendly with other dogs. I also have experience with senior dog care because my last Golden lived until 15! I'm a huge dog lover and view them as family, which is why I decided to begin dog sitting. Traveling is fun, but it can be stressful for dog owners and the dogs themselves. I want to help ease your mind while you are away and provide your dog with much love and affection. I'm an RN and currently work as a consultant. I work normal daytime hours M-F and I also have the summer months off. My office is close to home, so I can easily come home for dog check ins & potty breaks. My nursing knowledge and skills have proven beneficial for taking care of my own dogs as I am more conscientious of their needs and any abnormal symptoms.

This was Nicole's first visit from our dog, Maverick. We couldn't be more grateful for Nicole's great care, her updates, and all she did to assure that we could be out of town during a holiday weekend. Nicole is such a terrific caregiver for anyone with a K-9 family member. Thank you, Nicole!

Nicole is great. She's super responsive and took great care of our pup. Freyja is high anxiety and very nervous with new people, but warmed up well to Nicole. She also came back the happiest and calmest I've ever seen her after being away from us. She enjoyed all the doggie company and play time.

Nicole is great! She did a great job watching my dog while I was away and she was extremely flexible and gracious when I had to book last minute. I would definitely book with her again.

Nicole was wonderful! Set up a meet and greet in advance to make sure everything went well. Was easy to coordinate with and took care of our dog while I was away having a baby!! We didn’t stress for one moment while he was with her. He was in great care and came home happy and healthy :)

Nicole was great. She takes this seriously and makes sure that a meet and greet goes well so your dog is in good hands! I think Monty had a blast with a younger dog his age to play with.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for dogs in my home. I have a huge fenced in yard. Your dogs do not need to be crated while in my home alone, unless requested, or needed.

Pets

A typical day

Your dogs activities are dependent upon their needs. I can play fetch with them in my yard or walk them along local trails near my house. They will certainly get a lot of play time with Brody!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
No females in heat
Nicole can host up to 3 pets per night
I'd like to know if your dog has any history of aggression or any troublesome habits such as chewing on household items/furniture. For the safety of my animals & the dogs that I care for I cannot board an aggressive dog or a dog with strong alpha tendencies. I also need to know if your dog is very high energy or counter surf’s for food. Very high energy dogs are not the best fit.
