Pet care experience
Flexible Weekday Walker & PetSitter
Hello there! My name’s Nicole — I am a big time animal lover with a desire to make taking care of animals my full-time job! Apart from having a deep passion for animals, I am also an avid runner, cycler, and artist. In my spare time, you'll find me going on long strolls with my own dog, Bruce, working on a watercolor painting, or making jewelry. I am currently in the process of obtaining my dog training certification and hope to eventually introduce those services to this platform. I have often been relied upon by family and friends to care for their pets and find a lot of enjoyment out of making sure these animals are cared for, while their paw-rents are away. I love being able to provide pet owners with a sense of peace while they are on vacation, knowing that loving and attentive care is being provided to their pets. I live an active lifestyle and have the stamina for longer dog walks and at various points in the day if needed. I am also knowledgeable and comfortable with properly putting on and fitting various dog collars/walking gear, whether it is a harness or prong collar. I have a dog myself — his name is Bruce, and he comes with some behavioral issues that I am properly equipped to handle — reactive/fearful tendencies. Therefore, I am pretty confident handling any dog temperament. I am punctual and organized and am able to keep calm and remain unflappable during stressful situations. I am honest and am happy to send daily photos and updates of your fur babies. I also promise to respect the space of the pet owner and understand the responsibility and trust I am given when asked to care for the animal and the home in which they exist in. Shoot me a message, and I hope to add your pup to my little pack! (or cat or even bunny or lizard -- I have experience with bunnies and reptiles as well!).

Safety, trust & environment
I make sure to clean food bowls after every feeding. Water bowls are cleaned and refreshed daily. Litter box if applicable is attended to daily. Cats and dogs are provided with play time and love. Dogs are fed in their crate in case of any resource guarding tendencies. I am only gone for about 5 hours at a time, so that would the longest a dog will be left alone in my home. I only request that the dog is crate-trained.
Ratings and reviews
Nicole T. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Nicole is such a wonderful catsitter!!! She took great care of our cat and sent us the cutest pics every day along with detailed updates. Would 100% book with her in the future it was so nice knowing our cat was in such good hands 🥰🐱
Nicole is very reliable and responsive. We were away for multiple nights and booked her to come 2x a day, after each visit she gave detailed updates and lots of photos. She went above and beyond by cleaning the bowls, turning on/off AC for us, and tidying kitty litter (which we didn’t request since it was just 2 nights). Would definitely book again.
This was our 3rd time booking drop in visits with Nicole! Her pet experience shows and she’s been very good with our cat. Good communication while we were away and she sends regular daily updates with lots of photos. Our cat was comfortable with her and we felt secure with her services!
Nicole is great! Communicative and so great with my cats.
Absolutely incredible service on a holiday! We really appreciate Nicole helping us out with a visit to our pup on such a busy day! Thank you so much and we will keep you in mind for future sittings!

Schedule
I currently desire to make this my full-time job, so my availability is very open. Animals are one of my biggest passions -- having a dog myself, I will find myself in prospect park almost every day playing fetch or providing extended sniff sessions for my pup or yours!
