House Sitting • Apr 27, 2026

We had a wonderful experience with Nicole as our house and pet sitter, and we highly recommend her! We have one elderly dog and an oddball kitten, both of whom require lots of attention. Our trip was 10 days long and international, so we were understandably nervous about leaving them. However, after a meet-and-greet with Nicole in our home, we immediately felt confident they would be in great hands and asked her to sit for us on the spot. Nicole put us at ease by asking thoughtful questions—many covering things we had planned to mention, as well as important details we hadn’t even considered. As a person, she clearly loves and understands animals—their needs, behavior, and unique personalities. As a professional, she is thoughtful, responsible, kind, and responsive (even with a 7-hour international time difference!). We received multiple photos and updates each day, and it was clear from our pets’ normal playful behavior that they felt comfortable with her very quickly. We returned home from our long trip to a clean house, happy and healthy pets, and even two houseplants resurrected (by Nicole!). We would definitely book Nicole as a house and pet sitter again!

Nicole was simply fantastic with my Yorkie, so much so that Poppy was rather in different to me when I got back! Hahaha. Nicole asked me for specifics about Poppy and my household schedule. She followed my directions to the letter. Her communications to me were prompt and frequent. I could not give a higher recommendation.

Nicole is one of the most responsible and genuinely caring people I know. She is attentive, patient, and truly loves animals. She pays close attention to details, follows instructions carefully, and makes sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Any pet in her care will be treated like family, and I would trust her completely with mine.

Schedule

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am always available to feed, walk, or play with pets as needed. I dedicate consistent time each day to enrichment, exercise, and attention tailored to each animal’s needs, ensuring routines are predictable and stress-free. With my flexibility and focus, I provide reliable, attentive care at any time of day, giving pets comfort and owners peace of mind knowing their animals are happy, safe, and well cared for.

Before caring for your pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide the best possible care. It’s important for me to know their feeding schedule, dietary restrictions, allergies, medications (if any), and any medical history that may require attention. I also like to know their typical energy level, favorite activities, fears or triggers, and how they behave around other animals or strangers. Knowing their sleep routine, potty schedule, and any house rules helps me keep things consistent so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Since I work from home, I am extremely flexible and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can maintain a structured yet attentive routine that keeps them happy, relaxed, and well cared for.
