Pet care experience

Animals ARE my passion!

I have never lived in a house without a dog or cat. I lost my Riley last year and have found that caring for others' four legged loved ones really fills my heart more than I imagined. I have the most experience with small-medium sized dogs and cats but I love big dogs as well and am strong enough to keep control of them when needed. I am not certified as an animal trainer, though through my life, I have gained practical experience and knowledge of teaching basic commands and tricks for younger or older dogs. I frequently helped care for my mom's dog who was blind and had mobility issues. I have also cared for numerous older dogs and dogs with special needs through Rover.

Nicole was awesome with our dog. I dropped the ball on access info and she was prompt in messaging to ask how to enter the house. Thanks for everything!

Thank you, Nicole - Lexie had a great time during the visit and it helps knowing she's in good hands. Loved the pictures and the nearby puppy park. Super easy drop off & pick up - highly recommended!

Banjo loves going to Nicole's! He marches right in the door when we get there and it's like his summer camp! Lots of adventures with lots of picture updates! Banjo loves Nicole and we feel great sending him!

I would definitely book with Nicole again! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous at first. Okay, maybe a lot nervous, haha. Drop off and pick up were a breeze. My dog got to meet some new friends and go to the dog park. Nicole was very responsive and sent great updates and pics! It was such a relief knowing he was happy and safe. He even got to sleep on the bed.

Safety, trust & environment

I have just recently moved to a new house where the front yard is filled with goldenrod for the bees. It doesn't look like a typical yard so I wanted to just give that heads up! When boarding and/doing day care I like to stick to the animal's usual schedule as closely as possible. I enjoy taking dogs to a dog park and walking on the trails around there. I also live in a neighborhood that is walking friendly and there is a large back yard for running/playing in. For overnights, your dog will not be alone. Someone will always be at the house with them. At your house, I will follow the rules of the house and, again, keep the animal's routine as close to usual as possible.

A typical day

I recently moved to a home with a large back yard for running and playing. I keep many regular toys and a couple of different "enrichment toys" for the pooch who is always on the go. I love taking dogs to different hiking areas and dog parks. In your home I would walk them on known trails/ paths around your home. I enjoy getting on the dogs level and interacting with them if they are comfortable with that.

I am willing to watch, walk, hang out with any dog or cat, including special needs animals. Just let me know the animals' usually schedule, what they eat, their preferences, games they enjoy, whatever you think I need to know.
