Experienced Pet Care Professional

Pet care experience

I have worked with and shown dogs since I can remember. My grandparents bred show dogs and I started competing in 4-H and AKC when I was 8 years old. For about 4 years I worked for professional handlers at dog shows - exercising, feeding, bathing, grooming and caring for all our client dogs. I have also show trained and obedience trained all my own dogs all my life. I became a pet groomer in 2018 and also worked in a doggy daycare/boarding facility for years. In addition to regular services offered, I am also willing and able to help train your dog if needed (leash train, basic obedience, socialization). I am comfortable handling and working with reactive, aggressive, anxious and fearful dogs so don’t hesitate to reach out if your dog is any of the above. I also provide professional, in-home grooming. I have an Instagram account for my work @bubblegum.grooming Please don’t hesitate to message me with questions regarding the details in my profile. Every dog and situation is different and I am always willing to work around specific needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

Nicole was amazing with our dog. She gave us updates and pictures constantly. We trusted her with our home and our best friend, and was not disappointed at all. She even cleaned the dog blankets and picked up after herself. A+ Thank you again Nicole. You will be the first we call when we need you next.

Book Nicole!! You can keep reading but just book her already cause she’s great! She did a meet and greet with me before we went out of town for Labor Day weekend. We booked her to stay at our house with our 1.5 yo German shepherd. We honestly expected her to just play with him a little bit over the weekend since we live in Vegas and it’s always hot af outside which makes walks nearly impossible during the summer. But since we had thunderstorms she took him on 1-2 walks EVERY day. AND threw the ball with him in the house and the back yard. She did such a great job keeping him active and tired. The house was just as we left it. She even washed/dried the sheets on the spare bed (without us asking) so we didn’t have to do it when we got back from our trip. And she picked up all of the dog poop in the backyard for us. She also was nice enough to take our trash cans back in after trash day since we were gone and our HOA is nuts about that kinda stuff. She was so thoughtful. Sent pictures and updates multiple times a day and was very communicative with us. I can’t wait to have her back to watch our pup for all of our future trips!

Nicole recently watched my yellow lab puppy while I was on vacation. My pup can be a handful and requires constant time and attention outside to spend her energy. Nicole was on time, always made sure to update me and sent lots of pics. She spent ample time with my pup giving her the attention she needs. Will book again for all future trips!

Nicole is the biggest animal lover I know. She has worked as a professional dog groomer, as well as been a doggie mom for years. She currently has 2 dogs, whom she loves more than life itself. I've watched her with her pets and you can tell immediately that they love and respect her. I know that if you trust her with your baby, she will take just as good of care of them as she does her own. She is also amazing with cats. She has loved and babied my cat, Tatertot, since she first met him. There's no doubt in my mind that she would be the perfect fit for your pooch, frankly you couldn't find anyone more suited to take care of animals. 10/10 recommend.
