Professional & reliable sitter

Pet care experience

sweetfernwanders on instagram ACCEPTING NEW WALK/DROP-IN/HOUSE SITTING CLIENTS FEB 2023 I have over 13 years of animal experience. I’ve taken care of and had cats & dogs my entire life. I worked at a daycare/boarding/grooming facility for over 3 years and fostered dogs after leaving that job for another 8. My senior pup passed 12/22 at age 17- so I’m very comfortable working with animals of all ages. All daycare dogs have access to my backyard equipped with a run, walking trails, and enrichment time. Please inquire about furmination/brushing out undercoats and baths as an added service. Several years experience administering oral and subcutaneous meds if your fur babe is in need.

Nicole did a great job at taking care of my cat, Yuki! He was comfortable with Nicole and she sent many photos of him playing. Thank you!!

Nicole continues to be incredible. While we were gone our home lost power and she helped ensure that our cat was warm and well cared for. It was hard not being here to care for our pet but we felt much more comfortable knowing she was in Nicole’s hands. So grateful for Nicole!!

Nicole was super communicative, sending updates and texts throughout her stay with Smokey. He’s also a dog with a lot of character, and she did a great job adjusting to make sure that Smokey was successful. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him!

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any behavioral or special needs your dog may have. Knowing how your pup socializes and interacts with both humans and other dogs is great to know. You can never offer me too much data about your fur babe!

I love to walk and trail run with you furry friends! I’ve even taken cats for outings on occasions! Beach romps, woods excursions, snowy trail adventures, and more!
