Pet care experience
Lifelong animal lover, who works from home, is looking to love & care for your baby(ies) as if they were mine! I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, lizards & even a tarantula. So if you have other animals than just a dog, I more than likely have that experience. I am very good with animals, especially those who aren't very trusting, tend to do well with me. I like getting down to their level. I let them take their time and do not force it. My pet sitting started with an untrusting little dog named Belle. She didn't like anyone except for me. So my girlfriend always had me watch her. Then my other friends started asking me to watch their animals when they were out of town. It is something I realized that I love doing. I used to have a Rottweiler and an American Bulldog so I do have experience with large breed dogs. I am also good with senior dogs as well, as they tend to have special needs.
Reviews
Nicolete is. DOG PERSON! She clearly loved our boys as much as they loved her. In fact, she told us both slept in the guest bed with her (which is highly unusual for one of our dogs). When I reached out, she immediately set up a meet and greet and upon her arrival, she was prepared to ask questions based on what she read on our pups Rover profiles. She was communicative both before coming over and while she stayed at our home. She took the boys on lots of walks and played with them! She also helped us when we faced a trip emergency and needed to stay another day. 10/10 recommend and will be hiring her for future stays. ?
Nicolete stayed in our house for four days with our 5 dogs. She was incredible! She communicated everyday, sent pictures and updates of the dogs. The dogs loved her and she was fantastic!
Nicolete was AMAZING with my two big dogs and one cat while I was out of town for the weekend. She updated me throughout the day and spent plenty of time with them so they didn’t feel alone, and I didn’t feel anxious about them on my vacation. I don’t have a yard so she had to walk the dogs several times a day, and they can be a handful, but she handled everything perfectly. Will not hesitate to hire her again and recommend her to others.
Nicolete is such a blessing! She loves my fur babies as much as I do and they love her too!! She always takes great care of them when I’m away. It brings me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend Nicolete!!

Safety, trust & environment
My pets were extremely spoiled. I have been fortunate enough to not have to crate my animals because they were good inside. I make sure that there is always fresh water and plenty of toys to play with and a blanket for them to sleep on or in bed with me. In a client's home, I would abide by whatever they allow for their animals. If they need to be crated, they will be crated. I will try to keep to the animals normal routine as much as possible. I will throw a ball or frisbee for them until I tire them out. Take them for walks. And of course give them lots of love and affection.
Information Nicolete G. would like to know about your pet
I want to know if they are nervous around strangers and may bite. Are they allowed on the furniture? Do they need a harness on walks? Are they allowed to have people food?
A typical day
I love to play with the dogs. I will throw the ball or toy until they wear themselves out. Tug of war is also a must! Also if I am staying overnight, they are allowed to sleep with me. I like take the dog on as many walks as needed if I notice they are being nervous, to help stimulate their mind off their owner being away.
