Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Nicole and I am an experienced care-giver of dogs. I grew up with dogs in my life, and am always paying attention to the dogs around me. At my home in Pennsylvania, I have a Boston Terrier Pug (Stella) and a Chihuahua Shiba-Inu mix (Buttercup), the latter of whom is blind. I have experience dog-sitting for an extended amount of time and I constantly am walking different types of dogs, big and small. I have experience with high-needs Pit Bulls, shy dogs, dogs who bark or are aggressive upon first meet, and dogs who need extra love. A little about me - I love to cook/bake, ride my bike, do ceramics, and read on the porch. Taking care of dogs is a natural stress-reliever for me, so I have a lot of love to give your dog. I currently am a resident psychiatrist at Johns Hopkins so my schedule varies - but I keep my schedule up to date on the app! I want to work with you to ensure that your dog's special needs are met, and to make sure your dog is happy in a safe environment. My home is an apartment in Charles Village, within a supportive community of neighbors and with a yard for your dog to run around in! My home is also within walking distance of Druid Hill Park and Wyman Dell.
Reviews
So glad I found Nicole! She did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for my cat and dog while I was away for over a week. She was super communicative and responsive; very easy to work with. The regular updates and pet pics that she sent put my mind at ease while traveling. The pets loved her and will certainly miss her. Five stars; I would definitely recommend!
Nicole was a great find! She was very responsive to every message rather quickly, and reassuring as to all my concerns since I’d never used the service before or had someone come into my home. She gave me detailed feedback on each dog at each visit and was thoughtful. She also was available last minute and was very flexible. She seems like a very considerate, caring person and animal lover.
Nicole was such a thoughtful and responsible sitter! I needed a sitter last second for a week, and I'm so thankful she could help me out! She would send a picture daily of my sweet pup playing, sleeping, and being silly. When I picked up my pup, she seemed so relaxed and happy. Anytime I need a sitter I trust Nicole!
Nicole is a very friendly and responsible dog-lover who I am confident will provide a reliable service that your pup will enjoy! She is a great walker and gets along well with all people and dogs. I would trust her walking my dog anytime and know that they would be safe in her care. She has lots of experience with dogs of her own and knows how to care for dogs of all sizes with love. I guarantee your pup will be cared for well with Nicole!
