Pet care experience

Cat mom & lover of all animals <3

I've always had a passion for caring for animals & have had them in my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior animals with special needs. I volunteered for several years at a local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for cats and walking/training dogs. Having had an elderly dog myself, I know how to handle the specific needs of older pets too - managing mobility issues, administering medications, & ensuring they are comfortable and well cared for. I know just how hard it can be to have someone new care for your pet, so I prioritize communication. I'm happy to always send pics + regular updates to give you peace of mind & help you feel connected! Having a cat that needs fairly specific care, I'm committed to knowing & following your pet's specific care. If they need an active schedule with lots of walks and playtime or gentle care due to age or health concerns, I'll ensure they get the best attention possible. My goal is to make sure you & your pet are happy & comfortable while I’m watching them, so I always treat every animal as if they were my own fur baby.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

As an attentive animal lover - whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime - I pay close attention & follow your pets usual routine. I take safety seriously - securing doors, gates, and following any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and cared for in their own familiar environment!

We always hope Nicole is available when we need a sitter. She is always so sweet and patient with our shy kitties and helps with our TNR cats that we feed too.

Nicole was awesome! Watched our two pups for the weekend and I didn’t worry about them a bit! She left the house just as we left it and took great care of the dogs. Would 100% recommend her!

Nicole did such an outstanding job taking care of my cat while I was across the country for a wedding. It gave me such peace of mind while away to know that my cat was safe, fed, and loved on while under her care. She even went the extra mile for me and left out some food for a family of stray kittens that live under my house. I will definitely be rebooking Nicole in the future and would recommend her to anyone! Thank you, Nicole!!

I had to book last-minute, & Nicole was responsive, flexible, & communicative. Made the whole process super easy! When she stopped by to check on him, she made sure he had enough food & water, & they got some good playtime in! I felt confident that Earl was in good hands, & that gave me a lot of peace of mind :) Can’t recommend her enough! Will definitely book again with her in the future. Thanks for taking such great care of Earl!

Before caring for your pet, I would love to know any specific details that help me care for them. This includes their daily habits and any special care they might need, such as medications or dietary preferences. The more I know, the better I can ensure they feel comfortable and happy! :)
