If I stay in your home, I would treat it with the same respect as my own home. I would take your dog on walks for daily exercise and play with them to make sure they are getting enough attention!

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any special needs your pet needs- behavioral or physical! It’s important to make sure they are cared for in the ways that suit them best

A typical day

We’ll make sure to check out all the smells in the neighborhood and play with toys to get interaction and socialization and have some fun!

Pets

Animal lover working from home

Pet care experience

All of my adult life, and most of my childhood, there has been a dog by my side. I recently had to say goodbye to my senior pup and miss caring for (and doting on) a pet! I am a huge animal lover of all kinds- energetic ones, old ones, puppies and kittens. I am a dedicated young professional who understands your pets are your family and should be treated as such- giving them all of the attention, care and snuggles they desire. Whether its taking long walks, curling up in front of the TV or working from home together, I promise your dog or cat will be well cared for. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my services and I’ll be sure to respond as soon as possible!

Nicole was an exceptional sitter for our attention-loving cat. We’re grateful for her consistent updates while we were away. Thank you Nicole!

Nicole more than took care of what our boys needed, from food to litter to medicine to care. Book with confidence.
