Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I've always kept a tight schedule and routine in my home. Walking, feeding, treats and toys have a time and place. The pets are allowed on the furniture but need to ask first. We have a doggie door but have utilized crate training as well. I have a tripod doggo who has some limitations jumping/walking/swimming.

Nicole did an excellent job bonding with both the dog and cat while we were gone and everything was fine when we returned. Thanks Nicole!

Nicole was great with the dogs, even with our old girl having some accidents in the house. Nicole was timely, communicative and trustworthy. Would love to work with he again!

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule and while I do walk and care for my own dogs, I can make time for yours too. I mean who doesn't want to play with dogs and cats all day?

How far does your pet want to walk? Do they get along with other dogs, children? Are they reactive to dogs behind fences or other animals- squirrel!
