All chonks welcome in my heart

Pet care experience

I have done pet sitting and dog walking ever since I was in my teens and I truly love hanging out with animals. I grew up in a two dog household and rode horses which really grew a respect for how much power animals hold. Showing them respect and love is all I want to do<3 I currently have two cats which I love very much but miss having daily pup time! I have watched animals for extended stays, given baths, walked up to three dogs at once, and am an expert animal cuddler. I love being active so longer walks are my go to! Also have experience with shy animals and senior animals. I’m excited to help you out with your lovelies, hope to see you soon!:)

Nicolette is great! She is very responsive and sent us pics and updates when she was watching Wally. Wally is an anxious dog, especially when we leave him, but he was great with Nicolette.

Nicolette was fantastic, personable, and easy to work with. Tucker seemed to have a fantastic time with her while she watched him over the weekend.

Nicolette took care of our two large dogs for a weekend, left the house in perfect shape, and gave daily updates on the dogs. Will definitely hire her again!

Nicolette has stayed with my dog Penny a few times now and does a great job. She sends regular updates and pictures and is very respectful of my home. I even threw sick foster kittens in the mix for her to watch previously and she balanced everyone’s needs. Highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

When watching pets in clients’ homes it’s always important for me to give your pet time to warm up to a new person in the home. Making sure I’m somewhere visible and letting them approach and greet me rather than me first approaching is big. They need to become comfortable and this is helpful to me to see which places they like to be alone or shy in! Keeping the home clean and building trust are my priorities!

Information Nicolette N. would like to know about your pet

If they have any body areas/motions that make them uncomfortable, any food aggression or any issues with other animals so that I can anticipate and make us both most comfortable. Any past traumas or clear triggers are also helpful to know!

A typical day

Long walks to nearby parks are my favorites. There are quite a few grassy parks around south Philly which are perfect places to get some running in
