Highlights
Pet care experience
Striving for wagging tails!
Excited to return to Rover! I've owned and surrounded myself with dogs (and other pets) my entire life and love it! My pups are my best friends and adventure buddies. Friends and family often call on me to help care for and train their canine friends or for advice because of my experience from working with various temperaments and behaviors. I also used to foster dogs and plan to return to that at some point. I love all breeds, ages, and sizes and enjoy learning their unique personalities. I provide much love and attention but know when to be a stern pack leader to keep everyone safe and in check! I use positive reinforcement and correction/redirection over discipline and I believe more exercise and encouragement make most a "good dog." Dogs tend to bond with me quickly and are responsive to my leadership style.

Ratings and reviews
Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of my elderly dog!
Nicole was very reliable- I felt good knowing I could count on her to get my dogs needs met. I will continue to use her and recommend her for your pet! ?
Nicole was great!! Our dog came home clean, happy and content. She sent us cute pics too!!
Nicole did a great job with our older dog Gracie. We couldn’t have been happier.
Nicole is great. Very flexible. Simba loves going to her house and playing with her dog Kermit. He gets lots of exercises there and Nicole always keeps me update with pictures of Simba having fun on the beach. I’d recommend her to anyone!
Nicole has been absolutely amazing for my little Nala! She’s taken a huge weight off my shoulders on the days I have to work!

I currently work a part-time, remote job so my schedule is often flexible. I spend much of my my down time with furry friends.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I find the most critical care is love, pats & praise, and structure & consistency. When it comes to others’ pets, I want to provide individualized care that is consistent with their daily life, so I try to incorporate owners’ standards and parenting styles. I recognize consistency is key to communicate with dogs and reduce their stress. Let me know how to accommodate your pet.

A typical day
I live near the beach so I often incorporate walks along the shore in our daily routine. I have a small yard for quick outing needs.
