Pet care experience

Well, besides just loving pets, I've got years of experience with training and babysitting young puppies, all the way to senior pets. If you’re still in the training stages, I am able to help with basic commands and potty training. I'm comfortable with administering medications, following specific feeding instructions, and providing lots of love and attention. Lastly, I know how important communication is, and it, is super important for a dog watcher because it helps build trust. I am able to provide as much communication throughout your pets stay about their behavior, eating habits, and any changes I may notice to ensure their needs are met. I can provide regular updates and photos to reassure you that your pet is in good hands!

Nicole did a last minute drop in for me and she was great! She sent pictures of them and kept me posted on when she was here!

Another great trip with Nicole! Over the last 5 years we’ve used around a dozen rovers and she’s by far the best we’ve used - goes above and beyond, spends a ton of time with the dogs, even tidied up. Truly the best!

Nicole did a great job caring for our two doodles! She communicated well, the pups seemed happy and well cared for, and house left in great shape. We’ll happily hire her back and already plan to!

Nicole is amazing with my dog Ava and has watched her for a much as a few weeks at a time! No to mention the time my dog got out and Nicole offered her entire weekend to help find my dog. Everytime Nicole walks in my dog can't help but get the wiggles from over whelming excitement. There have been many time I have just left my apartment key with Nicole for her to go and walk ava while I was at work! 10/10 recommend!
