I'm currently retired so I have time to pop in and check on dogs for potty breaks or walks during the day. I have a 7 year old so I just have to adjust around school times.

Information Nicole T. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know about your pet’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, allergies, fears, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. Please let me know how they do around other dogs, children, new people, and being left alone. I’d also like to know about any special behaviors or medical needs so I can provide the safest and most comfortable care possible.

A typical day

I love keeping dogs happy and engaged while also following their individual personality and energy level. Depending on the dog, we can enjoy walks, playtime, fetch, backyard exploring, sniffing around, and plenty of cuddle time. I also like giving dogs quiet time to relax when they need it. For boarding and daycare, I’ll make sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and rest. I’m always happy to follow their normal routine and favorite activities!

Loving and Experienced Dog Mom

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet caregiver. I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a big part of my family. I currently have a sweet Black Lab mix who I medically fostered (now adopted), which has given me hands-on experience providing extra care, following special routines, giving medications when needed, and paying close attention to changes in a dog's behavior and well-being. I also regularly help care for my parents' senior Dachshund, so I'm very comfortable with older dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, or a slower pace. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play, prefers a relaxing day on the couch, is nervous around new people, or needs extra care because of age or medical needs, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I treat every dog as an individual and will follow your instructions and their normal routine as closely as possible. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is doing well. ❤️ I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your dog and become someone you can count on for their care!

Nicole is an incredibly responsible, dependable, and loving pet caregiver. She genuinely loves animals and treats every pet as if they were her own. She is attentive, patient, trustworthy, and always makes sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Nicole to care for any of my pets and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver.

I’ve known Nicole for many years, and one thing that has always been obvious is how much she genuinely loves dogs. She has been a dog owner for as long as I’ve known her and has always treated my dogs like they were her own. My dogs have always absolutely loved her, and I’ve never had to worry about them when they were in her care. Nicole has also been there for me whenever I needed someone I trusted to watch my babies, and knowing they were with someone who would love and care for them the way I do meant so much to me. She is kind, dependable, and a true animal lover, and I would absolutely trust her to care for anyone’s furry family members. ❤️
