Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Dog Caretaker
I am an Animal Science major at Chico State as a 4th year! I was a kennel tech so I have handled all kinds of dogs and behaviors with preparing and handing out feedings, medications, walks and fun playtime! I’ve taken care of my neighbors and friends dogs and cats since I was 8. I also did many drop in visits and bathroom visits to make sure the animals were comfortable and had company. I have 2 family dogs of my own which I have raised since they were puppies and trained them basic commands and fun tricks!
Cat care experience
Nicole also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I create a safe environment by allowing your pet to come and meet me. I make sure all the pets needs are met with a full water bowl, filling food bowls, bathroom breaks and medications (if applicable). I can entertain your animals with their toys, walks and treats to build trust and have you come home to a content pet.
Ratings and reviews
Nicole was our first sitter and she was amazing. Our five month old puppy barks and whines when we leave him alone, but Nicole made sure he wasn’t lonely/bored by playing with him while we were gone. Our puppy felt very comfortable with Nicole and didn’t even miss us. She took care of our puppy like it’s their own, by showing constant care and attention whenever our puppy wasn’t sleeping! We got home to a happy puppy playing with Nicole. We’d like to have her sit our dog in the future, and we definitely recommend her!
Nicole has been caring for our 2 cats and 1 dog for over 10 years. She is attentive and extremely reliable. She has always provided exactly what we have ask of her in our animals care. Nicole is an excellent choice to have peace of mind when you are on vacation or away from your home.
Nicole is great with all animals, especially dogs. She goes out of her way to make sure your dog has everything they need. She has trained multiple dogs. She is a very responsible sitter and sends lots of photographs! Would recommend her to anyone that asked!

Schedule
My schedule is pretty open! I am in school full time but my schedule consists of classes in the morning each day with most afternoons free to take care of your pet! (aka. Furry family member) The only afternoons I have commitments are Tuesday and Wednesday!

- It is important to know any allergens the dog has, medications it has to be given, temperament on leash, max amount of treats allowed, and other behaviors the dog has in the house to keep the dog and sitter safe while building a trusting relationship.
