Pet care experience

Let me hang with your pup!

Talking care of a pet is a lifestyle. Being an owner of a precious chocolate lab through his puppyhood, I know what it takes to care for and learn my little buddy and his needs...whether physical or emotional! I’ve trained him, but have also cared for him throughout the majority of his life, getting the opportunity to learn the skills of intentionality, discipline, patience, compassionate understanding, and other such life lessons. My pup has taught me much about the world by his earnest existence, which has drawn me and my partner to animals and pets alike. While being away from a loved one can be a time of anxiety, I would love to be able to care for your pet during the time you are away to ensure that it is treated with the utmost respect and kindness.

Nicole and her family did a great job taking care of my dog through a weekend. He was very happy and received plenty of exercise. I plan to book with Nicole in the future. :-)

Nicole was great! Met up with her a few days prior to our departure and was impressed! Appreciated so much that we did not have to worry about Beau while we were away. Nicole sent pictures almost daily and Beau seemed to always worn out - in a good way! :) They have a big back yard and live close to the dog park, so it was great that he was able to "let loose" all of his energy. They have a chocolate lab (Percy) as well, and both had a great time running after each other. Highly recommend Nicole if you are in need of a kind and caring individual to take care of your dog!

Nicole and family are the BEST! Our dog was so happy with them, and we felt so good about leaving her in their care. We got tons of photos and videos during the stay. She had all kinds of fun outings, and clearly settled in really well. At the end of our trip, our flight home was canceled so we had to stay an extra day. Nicole was so accommodating and easygoing about the emergency extra stay. We are so grateful to have found Nicole, and she will be our go-to for all future bookings. This was wonderful Rover sitter experience!!!

Nicole was an incredible sitter! She sent updates/photos throughout our dog's stay and her & her family treated him like their own. I would highly recommend Nicole to everyone. Scout can't wait to come back and play with his new friend, Percy! ?
