Highlights
Pet care experience
✅💎 TRUSTED & RELIABLE SITTER
🐶 CARING FOR YOUR DOG: I work from home and am self employed so I have lots of time to take dogs out for a walk and give them all the attention they need. My dog was a Maltipoo and he passed away last year (he lived for 18 years!) and I have been enjoying dog sitting before I decide to commit to another dog of my own. So I have lots of experience taking care of dogs. I know how to deal with different dogs and how to adapt to fit their needs. I have been educating myself with dog training videos so I can better care for your dog. It might be the perfectionist in me, but with everything I do, I don’t want to be just “good” I want to be best I can possibly be haha. I live across from 3 parks and the seawall where I can take dogs for a walk. 📞COMMUNICATION: I am very respectful and I like to keep everyone happy so I am great at following rules and any special requests you may have. I am a very communicative person, and I typically reply within 3 minutes. I give dogs all the attention and affection they need (I love cuddles) and I talk to dogs a lot as if they're my best friend lol. I check in with the dogs a lot and ask what they will need, and if they want to play then I will sit and play with them, or if they want to go for a walk, I will take them out. 📸 PHOTO UPDATES: 100% of my clients receive at least 1-3 photos or videos per day 🏙️MY HOME: I live in a modern pet friendly building and I am a very clean person so your dog will be very comfortable when they stay with me. 🎁BONUS: I can also teach your dog tricks if they’re around 1 year old or younger and if you board with me for at least 2-3 nights (It takes time to learn a new trick). I’ve taught some tricks to puppies that have boarded with me and I’ll send you video and photo updates every day - just mention it when you request a booking with me :) ⭐️ PROMO CODE: For all first time Rover users, feel free to use my code NICOLW96402 to get $20 off your first booking :) 🙎🏻♀️ PS. I’m an introvert so if you meet me and I’m quiet, don’t be alarmed, I’m probably just overstimulated with excitement about meeting your dog 😂😂 I sometimes post videos on social media so if you would prefer me not to post any, please let me know :)
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Nicole was so great with Gnocchi while he stayed with her for a few days. She sent me frequent updates with photos and videos. I could tell Gnocchi was feeling safe and happy during the stay. I’d happily book again!
Nicole did an awesome job at taking care of my dog! I got lots of photos throughout the sit which was great ❤️
We had a wonderful experience with Nicole looking after our dog Clover, it was everything we could have hoped for and more. Nicole is a lovely person and we could see that Clover was really happy during her stay. Nicole communicated with us throughout, letting us know how Clover was settling in and sharing little videos and/or photos from the day. We could see Clover was happy and doing really well (and this provided such peace of mind!). I am so very grateful for everything Nicole did to take such good care of Clover and would highly recommend her as a dog sitter. I would not hesitate for a moment to have Clover stay with her again. Thank you so much, Nicole!
Nicole W. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Nicole was great! We received photo updates of Rusty’s stay all week & he was very comfortable while we were away!
We had a great experience with Nicole! She followed all of Stanley's care instructions and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind. Stanley seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and it looked like they had a great time together. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again—in fact, we already have! She's watching Stanley again in a few weeks while we celebrate our daughter's birthday, and we feel confident leaving him in her care. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I am self employed so I can be as attentive to dogs as much as needed. I have lots of time to take care of dogs. I rearrange my schedule so that the dogs can come with me if I need to step out of the house. I work everything around your dog - for example, I get my groceries delivered and I'll find dog friendly patios if I'm going for dinner.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I never leave dogs unattended outside and I never tie them outside of stores, even if its for a short period of time - I would never want to take that risk, I'm a very cautious person. I treat every dog like its my own and make sure it feels safe and comfy. I will make note of your dogs patterns and behaviours and adjust to their needs.
A typical day
I start the day by walking the dog along the sea wall, and again midday and in the evening. Throughout the day I provide regular potty breaks every 1-2 hours as needed Of course I make sure they take any necessary medicine if needed, and make sure they are fed appropriately and always have water in their bowls. At night they are free to sleep in the same bed as me or however you would like me to put them to bed. I respect your wishes.
