Pet lover available for you!

Pet care experience

I’ve done rescue work on the side for a cat shelter, including medical fostering. I work for an emergency/specialty vet as a technician assistant. I have several reoccurring clients on & off of here. Love all pets! I have a 3 legged kitten and have done specialized care for kittens with eye issues and bottle fed kittens. I have no issues giving meds or helping with prescription diets. I have experience with bearded dragons and other reptiles as well. I can always send pics of my work! My labradoodle and his siblings somehow manage to befriend every dog we take care of and we always love new friends! I have plenty of references besides what is on here as well and there’s some before & afters of foster kittens I’ve done medical stuff with.

Nicole was great, she looked after the house and made sure all our pets were looked after, not just the dog. Reliable, trustworthy and great communication to let us know how things were going. Its hard to imagine putting the dog into kennels now we know Nicole.

We are new to the area and needed someone to drop in on our dogs while we’re at work every day. Nicole has been dropping in every day and has been amazing! She gives us detailed report cards every day with pictures of our pooches! Highly recommend!

Information Nicole R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know food issues, are they friendly, do other dogs bother them, key information that you would find important for me to know.

A typical day

I love going for walks with dogs, taking them for a swim (I have a puppy pool for my doodles), socializing and just relaxing. The pups have doggy puzzles and enjoy marrow bones.

I have 4 dogs of my own, a dorkie, a chihuahua, a labradoodle and a goldendoodle - we stay very active all the time. Walks, treats & playing, and my labradoodle loves to swim! My Labradoodle enjoys visiting people and it’s not uncommon for us to venture out just for a pup cup or a ride around town. I also have my rescue cats who I love! I work for an emergency/specialty vet and am always trying to further my education!
