Nicole was absolutely amazing with our two dogs, Tucker and Ruby! They each have very different personalities, and she handled them both with such care and confidence. I felt totally comfortable knowing they were in her hands — and it was clear they were well cared for and loved. Communication was great, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I would absolutely book with Nicole again!

I have used Nicole to check on my house cats for many years. Some were senior and required medicine. She has never been unable to meet my schedule even at last minute requests. She checks on them as agreed and always sends pictures of the cats getting their food or special treats she brings them. She takes care of their litter boxes and cleans up any ‘mistakes’ they make. She puts my mind at ease knowing that she takes such good care of them and always gives them love and attention.
