Information Nicole R. would like to know about your pet

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.

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!

Pet care experience

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.

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.

Nicole's communication was spot on, and she took fabulous care of my elderly dog, especially after she got scared during a thunderstorm! Highly recommend and will hope to work with Nicole again!
