Weekends and holidays are spent at home with the family, and the four-legged family members get plenty of playtime! During the week, I work full-time. Our dogs are kennel-trained and enjoy their downtime during the day. Once home, they’re out and a part of all our evening activities. We have a fenced-in yard where they can run and play non-stop.

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what special needs your dog has to make their stay a 5 star experience while you are away. As long as you family is good with kids and other dogs, I’m sure they will have a blast!

A typical day

During the school week the pups are in their kennels resting up for their evening play time. Once we are home at 4:00 the play time craziness begins. Our 3 youngest pups are always wrestling and running around with each other. They chase our kids around and get all the loves they deserve! Weekends are less hectic and much of the day is spent playing the in/out game, especially when the weather is nice!

Paws & Play: Loving Pup Care

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. As a kid I was never able to have pets, so as an adult I’ve always had multiple dogs. I love dogs and enjoy their personalities and fun loving nature.

Nicole was amazing! She has 3 well behaved beautiful dogs that got to play and distract Midas while we were gone. She also has some extra little hand that I am sure gave our dog so much love while we were gone! We got pictures daily! We were so happy that he was so well taken care of we would request Nicole anytime we are out of town. Highly recommend

Nicole not only is an excellent dog mom to her four dogs, but she is also an excellent doggy babysitter. She has watched my pup, Decker, too many times to count and always does a phenomenal job. He absolutely loves her! I highly recommend Nicole for all your dog watching needs.
