All the snuggles, exercise & love!

Pet care experience

I've always had a dog in my life - I absolutely love them. I dog sit for all of my friends and family whenever they go out of town. My friends also love to give me their dogs to go on long runs with them and tire them out! I work from home full-time and my schedule is very flexible. I am a very active person who loves to go on many walks and runs throughout the day to not stay sedentary. I live right next to the the Gooddog trail and love to take the dogs I’m watching there to tire them out. I do allow dogs on all the furniture, but if you have other rules at home, I follow them to enforce them.

Nicole instantly bonded with our hound, Miso, and happily wore her out with long walks, runs, and hikes! She sent us wonderful photos and videos -- which always made our day while we were on our work trip. The house was in great shape. We look forward to hiring Nicole again!

Nicole took great care of our 9yo pup while we were gone for a week. She gave him lots of excercise and kept us really well updated on their activities. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog. Thanks Nicole.

I cannot thank Nicole enough for watching Daisy! Daisy is three months old and so I was a bit nervous about leaving her with a stranger for the first time. However, Nicole was willing to meet Daisy ahead of time to make sure they hit it off (they did!), learned all the rules Daisy was supposed to follow (such as not going on furniture, sitting before getting a treat, and using a bobbler for meals), and also sent me updates throughout the day so I knew she was okay. Nicole (with permission) helped Daisy explore a new neighborhood, become not afraid to climb stairs, and even go on a car ride! All really important things for a new pup to experience. I truly cannot recommend (or thank) Nicole enough!

Nicole has been helping me with my puppy over the past year and she has been amazing. She is a caring, loving, and responsible caretaker with a true love for dogs. Nicole loves taking dogs for walks, to the dog park, or just cuddling on the couch. Whether you have an older dog who just wants to chill, or a young pup bursting with energy, Nicole is up for the job!

I work fully remote so my schedule is very flexible. I also hate being sedentary so throughout my work day, I got on multiple walks and try to get outside as much as I can. Your dog will never be left alone!
