I love ALL animals! :)

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m Nicole, I grew up in Torrance and I have babysat and been a nanny for 20 years in the area. (References available upon request). However, I’ve been an animal lover since I was born. From a very young age I was rescuing birds, reptiles, any innocent creature that needed my help! I’ve rescued many different animals- wildlife, pets, marsupials, reptiles, rodents, a Shetland pony (no joke!), and many cats and dogs over the years! I’m 36 in Lomita with reliable transportation, patience, and flexibility. I’m adaptable when it comes to how you train or treat your dog- so if your pooch is a princess I can respect that, or if she has strict commands I promise to help reinforce them! I grew up with my Grandparent’s Alaskan Malamute who treated me like her own pup, I saved a feral black cat from my high school whom I spent 21 beautiful years with, and more recently I welcomed my 2 year old Maltese/Poodle into the family. I have had just about every kind of pet you can imagine over the years. My current and only dog, is two years old, fixed, and up to date on all vaccinations. I also have two rats- Rizzo & Pearl who were both rescues (and great stories!). A leopard gecko named Bobbi who is the sweetest reptile ever, a three year old goldfish who was the star of a play I was in, and two tarantulas- Antoine & Suzette! Kids love my place, it’s like a petting zoo. “I have never met an animal in my entire life that I didn’t fall in love with.” ~ME I really look forward to getting to know your pet and helping with your routine! Thanks for your consideration! Message me for any questions at all. ~Nicole :)

Nicole is simply awesome. My wife and I go away for weekends pretty regularly and normally we rely on family and friends to care for our cats and chickens. This past weekend none of them were available, so I looked into Rover and found Nicole. After reading her profile and getting a sense of her being a great person with an innate love for animals, we hired her. Could not be happier with our decision. She took care of the critters with exceptional love and responsibility and she will be our go-to care taker from this point forward. Family and friends: you're off the hook. We've found Nicole!

My dog Theodore took to Nicole instantly. I look forward to seeing the pictures and videos Nicole takes each time she walks him. I work 60 hours a week and Nicole is a huge help when it comes to Theo. If you’re looking for a dog walker who cares about your dog and is trustworthy, Nicole is the walker/sitter you need.

Nicole is a skilled, friendly and enthusiastic dog walker. She is clearly well versed in dog handling, respecting the owner’s wishes and in doggy care 101 to make you feel comfortable about your pup not being with you. I brought up many topics in our meet and greet, such as taking treats from neighbors and being around other dogs, that Nicole responded with expertly in that her top priority is my dog and keeping her safe. My dog gets excited to see Nicole and I know my pup will have a great walk with her. She does great pictures and videos even for just a 30 minute walk.

Nicole is a wonderful dog walker! Great communication, she was super sweet to my dog, and I got lots of pictures of him having a great time with her. Will definitely request her for more walks often!
