Personalized care for your 🐾

Pet care experience

I've been caring for dogs, cats, and horses for over 20 years. As an adult, I have several years of experience providing specialized care for high performance horses and dogs. I am highly attentive and I provide personalized care. I carefully follow instructions and love pets like my own.

Nicollette took great care of my dogs! They seemed very comfortable in Nicollette's home and with her own dog. She was very responsive and kind, and I will definitely book with Nicollette again next time!

Safety, trust & environment

Dog Boarding: I live in an apartment with one friendly cattle dog mix, so I am limited to 1-2 additional dogs at a time. I provide 4-5 potty breaks a day. This includes a long exercise walk (1 hour) in the the evening and playtime in a large grassy area on a leash. I separate dogs at feeding time and when I need to run a brief errand. My apartment is dog-proofed. I make sure that all dogs who board with me are dog friendly. Drop-ins: Your dog receives 30 minutes of love and attention. Drop-in visits can include a walk within the 30min visit.

A typical day

A typical day begins with feeding and a short potty walk. Mid-morning is playtime followed by a mid afternoon potty walk. After dinner, we go for a long walk (1 hour) through Old Town and/or Jones Point park. Your dog will get lots of belly rubs and treats throughout the day.
