Pup Paradise, One at a Time 🐶”

A Loving Home Away from Home for Your Pup 🐾 Hi there! When your dog comes to stay, they’re not just a guest — they become part of our little family. Every pup gets plenty of playtime in the backyard, gentle belly rubs, and one-on-one attention from me (with enthusiastic help from my 7-year-old, who absolutely loves spoiling our furry visitors). My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while they’re here. I only host one dog at a time, so your furry friend gets all the attention and care they deserve — no pack stress, no competition, just a calm and happy environment. For safety and comfort, I welcome dogs I feel confident caring for, which means I do not accept Chihuahuas or bully breeds at this time. As a licensed kennel, I follow all safety and health standards to ensure every pup has a worry-free, joyful stay. I provide everything your dog might need: bowls, toys, cozy bedding, and filtered water. You just bring their favorite food and treats, and we’ll take care of the rest. If you’re looking for a warm, safe, and loving place for your dog, let’s set up a meet-and-greet — I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them a homey, happy stay! 🐶💛

We love Nicole! 🌺 She takes such great care of our baby. Luna loves to go visit her. It is a huge relief to know our baby is safe and happy while we are away. ❤️

Thank you so much Nicole! You made Luna's stay amazing and definitely eased our worry and concern. This was our very first pet sitting experience. We are very protective of our baby. We received a few video updates every day on her 5 day stay. We could tell that Luna was very happy. I highly recommend Nicole for your pets needs. She is the best. We will definitely be taking Luna to her in the future. 😊

Nicole took great care of our Lucky during boarding at her home. From the videos and photos she sent, it was clear Lucky was having a great time. When our initial stash of canned food started running out, Nicole even went out shopping to get more. Excellent communication and a truly wonderful sitter. Highly recommended!

Nicole – The Best Dog Sitter! I can’t recommend Nicole highly enough! She is incredibly professional, reliable, and responsive—everything you’d want in a dog sitter. From the very first message, she put me at ease with her prompt communication and thoughtful questions about Elvis’s routine and needs. While I was away, Nicole provided regular updates and photos, which reassured me that Elvis was not only in good hands but genuinely happy. He absolutely LOVED her! When I came home, he was relaxed, well-cared-for, and I’m pretty sure he was disappointed to see Nicole go. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for your pup like their own, Nicole is the one! Thank you for treating Elvis like family—we’ll definitely be booking again.

Schedule

I’m an elementary school teacher who works very close to home, so I’m able to come back for lunch every day. I start my mornings early—up by 6:30 AM to take the pups out and feed them breakfast. They go out again around 7:45 AM before I leave. I’m back home by 12:35 PM for lunch and another outdoor break, and again around 4 PM. Your pup will never be alone for more than four hours at a time.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by giving them plenty of love, attention, and fun. With a fenced-in yard and a love for daily walks, your pup will stay active and happy. I also enjoy sending photo updates, so dog moms and dads can see just how much fun their furry friend is having!

A typical day

Daily walks, fun playtime, tasty treats, snuggles, belly rubs, and plenty of love—your pup will feel right at home all day long! We have a fenced in yard and love extra play-time!

Please let me know if your dog has any allergies or medical conditions I should be aware of. In our home, dogs are not allowed on beds. We also prefer pups who are fully potty trained or comfortable sleeping in a crate at night if they aren’t trained just yet. For everyone’s safety, we can only welcome dogs who are non-aggressive and friendly with both adults and children. .
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
