Pet care experience
I've had 3 family dogs growing up as a kid. A golden retriever, a basset hound and to this day Tanner who is a pug/sheppard mix that will be turning 11 this summer. I myself had a dwarf bunny named Marley that lived a long 15 years! I currently have 3 cats, a 6 year old Turkish Angora (Taz), a 4 year old blue seal siamese (Pheobe) and a 2 year old tabby mix (Ollie) that I rescued. They have gotten along wonderfully with other dogs. Last April we welcomed Huey a Miniature long-haired Dachshund to our family making our house officially a zoo in which we love! I have walked, fed and bathed (upon request) for my husbands work friends pets. Cooper, an english cream dachshund frequently stays at my house for a weeks length in time and I have made house visits to care for Luna a German Shepherd and Stella a Border Collie.
Reviews
Nicole was excellent and followed up everyday with a pic and status. She was accommodating and thorough. I had the utmost confidence my two senior cats were in the right hands!
Nicole is amazing! She took great care of my dogs making my time away stress free and was incredibly flexible with my constantly changing plans.
Nicole has been taking care of our little man "cooper" now for over a year and she's been great ! I couldn't ask for a better sitter. She's a true dog lover and has been taking great care the little guy. Cooper is always very excited to see Nicole when i drop him off. The peace of mind knowing that my dog is well cared for is priceless.
Nicole is a loving and very responsible person when it comes to dealing with the fur babies and in the person to person interactions. My two pups loved her very much when she took care of them for a week while we were away. She sent updates on how the pups were making out and even went the extra mile when watching them. Highly recommend Nicole for her professionalism and her loyalty to keeping the fur babies happy and in turn making us owners happy knowing they are safe and in the best hands.

I have a decently sized backyard with a big field right behind me where I let them run and play freely when there are no other dogs in sight. I do potty breaks every hour and a half to two hours and to get fresh air as well as one to two 15-20 minute walks a day or out on the field to run around and play. I have lots of doggy beds, crates/pens and of course toys to play with. When dog sitting depending on the situation I stop by 3-4 times a day.
Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to know if there are any medical issues or allergies as well as if they need any medications. All good pets deserve treats! I would love to know how you deal with your dogs good and bad behaviours, how to reward them and what you think/feel is appropriate for me to do.It's always good to be able to communicate with the dog, what kind of commands do they understand? Does your fur baby have a favorite toy?
A typical day
When I am caring for dogs at my house I love to bring them to the big field behind my house to play, check out all of the new smells and just run around and be a dog! The area I live in is great for taking walks. Depending on the weather I like to spend a lot of time in my backyard and have a doggie pool out for them to splash around in and cool off.
