Pet care experience

Gentle and Trustworthy Pet Lover!

I'm a lifelong animal lover with a patient nature and a strong sense of responsibility. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior pet needing extra care, I treat every animal like my own—with kindness, attention, and lots of love. I bring a calm, dependable presence and truly listen to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with senior pets who need medication, and I’m also great with high-energy dogs who need plenty of play and exercise. I understand that each animal has their own personality and quirks, and I adjust my care to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m excited to meet your pet and give them all the care they deserve!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 22, 2026

Nicole is wonderful! She was so generous with Rosie and her home is set up as an ideal place to take care of dogs, with a big comfy dog bed (and she lets dogs on her furniture too), lots of toys, treats, and two outdoor spaces. She genuinely seems to love pets and I felt very comfortable leaving Rosie with her. Definitely plan to continue!

Nicole shows up on time every day, takes care of my pup, and shares a daily pic. My dog seems very happy when I come home.

Nicole was exceptionally helpful and took on my last minute booking with ease. She found everything in my chaotic house and sent photos of her check ins. Would definitely book with her again and the cats approve! ♥️

We’re so thankful we found Nicole! She took such wonderful care of our boy and kept us updated with photos and text. She also made sure our boy got good exercise and took him on long walks and even took him to play fetch (his favorite activity)! It’s so nice to know our pup is in safe hands when we’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a rowhome with my two cats. Whether your pet loves playtime or prefers a cozy couch to nap on, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free every step of the way. I also live right next to a beautiful park—perfect for regular walks if your pet enjoys getting out and about. Whether your pet needs cuddles, exercise, or quiet company, I’ve got the time and the perfect setup to make them feel right at home.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is about keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and loved! We’ll start the day with some fresh air—whether that’s a walk to the park right next door or some fun playtime to get their energy out. Throughout the day, I make sure there’s a good balance of activity, rest, and affection. If your pet enjoys toys, fetch, or a bit of training, we’ll make time for those favorite things. For pets who just want companionship, I’ll be right there with gentle attention, cozy spots to relax, and lots of cuddles. And of course, you’ll get photo updates along the way!
