Nicole was great. When she had a car mishap she communicated right away and still arrived very close to the scheduled time. Foley liked her and she followed all instructions. I would use her again!

Nicole is such an amazing and reliable sitter. She spent a few days checking in on my usually shy 8 year old cat. To my surprise, my cat warmed up to her on the first day! She’s only warmed up to about 3 others that quickly in her life. Nicole always made sure to communicate with me and did a phenomenal job watching over my fur baby. Thank you so much, Nicole!

Nicole was great with our scared pup! She came out the day before to meet her and get use to the apartment before taking care of our Summer. Nicole took extra time to try and win her over and she slowly gained our pups trust. Would highly recommend Nicole for your dog walk needs!

Fantastic job! Nicole took great care of our dogs. She walked our dogs while at work and even walked in the rain! One of our dogs is nervous with new people and she handled our dog like a pro. We will be rebooking with Nicole for sure!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! Since I’m currently home full-time, I have plenty of time and flexibility to give animals lots of attention, playtime, and love throughout the day. I start my mornings with walks and outside time with my own dog, and I enjoy keeping pets on a consistent routine that fits their needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, play, or cuddle time, caring for animals is already built into my daily rhythm — it’s something I truly love and look forward to every day! 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I provide personalized care for each pet depending on their needs and personality. In your home, I make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable, keeping their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I pay close attention to body language and signals so I can respond appropriately — whether that means giving extra space, more affection, or engaging in fun activities. In my home, I have a fenced-in backyard for safe playtime, and I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood. I make sure every pet gets plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I’m fully committed to keeping them happy, healthy, and safe while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, happy, and engaged! Depending on their personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks or runs, playing fetch or tug-of-war, and letting them explore and play safely in a fenced-in backyard. I also enjoy interactive play with toys, gentle training games, and plenty of cuddle time for pets who prefer a slower pace. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, entertained, and mentally stimulated while they’re with me — because happy pets make happy humans too! 🐾

I always want to make sure I provide the best care possible, so I encourage pet parents to share any important details about their pets ahead of time. This could include things like favorite activities, quirks, medical needs, or anything else that helps me keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while they’re with me. The more I know, the better I can tailor their care and make sure they feel loved and secure! 🐾
