Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard. My neighborhood is great for walks. Also depending on your preference with dog park/ walks, I typically take dogs for a 30 min walk (of course each dog is different in taking their time I fully respect that). If your dog is comfortable at the dog park, I’d love to take them there as well! My dog park is 20 minutes away (walking).I can accomodate dogs in crates or dogs that sleep on dog beds. In case of an emergency, I will always contact you first and take your pet to your preferred vet. I have a jeep which your dog will feel really comfortable in, so I am able to get your pet to whichever vet quickly!

Information Nicolle R. would like to know about your pet

I will modify activities depending on your dogs needs. Longer or shorter walks, as many potty breaks as needed. Also, please let me know how many walks your dog will need and how many times your dog eats a day. Treats and feedings as needed per your instructions. Notify me all of your pet's triggers. Let me know their dietary restrictions, and tactics on how to get them to warm up to me.

A typical day

I have plenty of time to do dog walks and feeding. I can walk your pet 2-3x a day and lots of play. If you want pictures, that's not a problem. A walk in the neighborhood, or a backyard playtime session, and lots of love and attention for your pets.

Pets

Furry friends make our life better.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets all my life! I helped raise and take care of a Golden Retriever for 14 years in my childhood home until she passed away. Right know I have 3 elderly dogs who are my BFF's. I can't imagine my life without a furry friend. Also I've helped watch family and friends dogs since a young age. I love dogs of any kind and will love yours like my own!

Thanks so much Nicolle for looking after Peanut recently, he seemed to have a wonderful stay! We really appreciated the regular updates and photos. You have such a lovely, gentle manner, which works perfectly for our little boy.
