Pet Loving Family

I always had pets since I was a child. I have raised two dogs through their senior days and just love having animals around. At this time we don't have any of our own pets but have been taking care of our friend's pets for the past couple of years and my kids and I love it so much we decided to start offering our services publicly. I work from home 95% of the time. I love having an excuse to go for a walk and I also jog about every other day so if the dog likes to run I can take them jogging with me too. My kids love to play with the animals before and after school and will try to get them to sleep in their bed. If you have a cat that prefers to be left alone we can accomodate that too. I love to take pictures so I'm also happy to send you pictures of your pet while you're away. I have a fenced in yard and room for a crate if needed. For socially well behaved dogs there is also a dog park two blocks from my house that I'm happy to take your dog too.

Very grateful to have a wonderful dog sitter while my husband and I went on a week long vacation. It was the first time my dogs had to stay at a strangers house so I was super nervous about it. My dogs were also not the most well behaved when staying. But I felt at ease went I picked them up and they were happy! Highly recommend Nicole and her two wonderful children who help take care of the animals!

Nicole was wonderful. She was able to help my family out last minute by agreeing to watch our two dogs. Unfortunately our older dog had several days of diarrhea while staying with Nicole, not only was she kind and patient, but she kept us updated on his status and also got him medication and bland food. I could not be more grateful for Nicole and how wonderfully she treated our pets. I would strongly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a reliable, caring place for their pets to stay.

Schedule

We're up about 7am, let the dogs out and feed them. I take the kids to school around 8am, they love having the dogs accompany them on rides or walks to school. I go back home and work remotely. Pets will generally hang out with me in my office, I have plenty of space against the window right next to my desk for a dog bed, or I just throw a blanket on the floor for them to lay on. I take lots of breaks during my work day to let the dogs out or go for a walk/run. I pick up my kids about 3pm and they are always happy to come home to dogs to play with. We typically do an evening walk or visit to the dog park. My son prefers to have ALL the dogs sleep with him when possible. =)
