Hard-working animal lover!

Pet care experience

I am a part-time college student working towards a degree in Fine Arts living in Chevy Chase, Maryland. I have had many pets of my own and have volunteered at the Houston Humane Society working primarily with dogs, and have worked in a Veterinary Clinic as a kennel assistant. I have been trained to give dogs baths as well as administer medications. I have also done work with horses (although I don't think that will be relevant). Working with animals and having them around brings me so much joy! I have my own car as a means for reliable transportation. My schedule is very flexible (I have classes on Tuesday and Thursdays starting January 22nd). I would love to meet and care for your pet!

Nicole did a wonderful job caring for our shy, anxious dog while we were away for 2 weeks! Nicole worked hard to earn our dog's trust and sent us pictures and updates while we were away. I would not hesitate to use her again.

Super friendly and took great care of our cats while we were away. Thanks for making sure our boys didn’t get into too much kitty mischief!

Nikki took great care of our dog, was very responsive and provided frequent updates/pictures via text. We would definitely rebook with her!

Nicole was super thoughtful and interested. She had a natural love of dogs and her house and yard were great. She communicated well. Will definitely ise her again.

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is okay with other dogs and if it is okay for them to socialize if we encounter another dog on a walk. If your dog has an injury, let me know so that I can best support them. I would also like to know if your dog is a rescue (I love rescues) or if they have any sort of trauma response. Some dogs are sensitive to touch in specific areas, and I wouldn't want to freak them out.

A typical day

I have some experience training dogs, so I do not let them be out of control or pull excessively on walks. However, I generally like to let them explore freely! Indoors, I can't think of anything that's more fun than playing with a dog. If your pet has toys and likes to play I would love to give them some fun exercise.
