Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable Part-Time Pet Specialist🐾
With over 17 years of hands-on experience caring for my own Labrador named Jiyo, I understand exactly what it takes to keep dogs of all ages and energy levels happy, healthy, and comfortable. Whether it’s puppies full of energy or senior pets who need a little extra care, I provide personalized, loving attention to meet your pet’s unique needs. I specialize in gentle care for senior pets, ensuring they stay on their routines while enjoying the exercise, playtime, and affection they love. For active puppies and dogs of all ages, I offer fun and stimulating activities that keep them engaged and happy. Whether it’s energizing walks, exciting play sessions, or cozy cuddle time, I create a safe and loving environment where your pet will feel right at home, because with me, your pet is not just cared for, they’re treated like family.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Nikole has been absolutely amazing! She consistently sent pictures and provided detailed updates after each walk, including how it went, bathroom breaks, and more. She truly went above and beyond. I would recommend Nikole to anyone looking for a pet sitter or walker. She made the entire experience so comfortable, reassured us with any questions we had, and kept our boy, Dunkin, safe and happy. Thank you, Nikole, for taking such great care of our fur family. We will definitely continue booking with her. Thank you again!❤️🐾
Nikole was great! She was wonderful to work with, and very caring! Amazing person
I feel so lucky we were able to connect with Nikole and have her check-in on our dogs. Her proactive communication and outstanding organization made me feel so comfortable, knowing our girls would enjoy keeping their routines with a new person. Our dogs have very different personalities from each other and Nikole adapted so well to both of them and understood their individual needs. I would recommend Nikole to anyone looking for a great pet sitter
Nikole was so helpful dropping in and taking care of our pups. She was super nice and communicative. I know my babies really like her so I will be gladly using her services again! Thank you!
Nikole was wonderful with my fur babies. Really communicative and attentive to their special needs. Not to mention she sent plenty of photos for me to enjoys while I was out of town. She was also amazing coming in on such short notice. Will definitely be using her services again next time I have to leave town!
Nikole is an excellent, skilled dog walker. Cooper loves her and gleefully leaves the house for his walks. You can see his smiling face. Her photos of Cooper and comments are wonderful! Nikole is a joy to work with, very reliable, and timely. We are very satisfied with her services and highly recommend her!

Schedule
I dedicate myself to ensuring every furry friend receives the love, attention, and care they deserve, creating a safe and comfortable environment where they feel right at home. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra tenderness, I tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also establish regular feeding times and ensure pets have fresh water available at all times. In the evenings and on my days off, I love taking dogs for walks, giving them the exercise and socialization they need. I believe that consistency is key in pet care, so I maintain a routine that balances exercise, training, and relaxation. Overall, pet care is woven into my daily life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, I create a welcoming and safe environment tailored to their needs. I ensure that my home is pet-proofed, with secure spaces for sleeping, eating, and playing. I provide fresh water and nutritious meals according to their specific feeding schedules. I also make time for regular play sessions and exercise to keep them active and engaged, whether it’s playing with toys or taking them for walks. If I'm caring for pets in my clients' homes, I follow the same principles while respecting their routines and preferences. I communicate with pet owners to understand their pets’ habits and any specific instructions they may have. I maintain a familiar environment for the pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. This includes sticking to their feeding schedules, following their walking routines, and providing plenty of companionship. My goal is to keep their pets happy and healthy while maintaining a seamless routine in their own space. Whether in my home or theirs, I focus on creating a nurturing atmosphere where pets feel loved and cared for. I provide a carefully structured schedule that includes plenty of play sessions and engaging activities, so your pet stays happy, active, and mentally stimulated throughout the day. Whether it’s fun outdoor adventures or cozy downtime, I offer a balance of excitement and relaxation that will keep your pet content and fulfilled. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for like family. I take the time to understand their routines, habits, and preferences, so you can have peace of mind knowing they are in great hands.
Pets
A typical day
Each day with your pet is designed to be safe, engaging, and full of joy. We begin with a refreshing morning walk, where your pet can get some exercise while exploring the world through new scents. Afterward, I make sure they enjoy a healthy breakfast, catered to their routine and dietary needs. Then, we’ll have some downtime to rest and recharge for the day ahead. For playtime, I focus on providing plenty of mental and physical stimulation through activities tailored to your pet’s needs. If your pet enjoys a more relaxed pace, we can cuddle up together or bask in the sun, whatever makes them happiest. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can feel connected to their day, no matter where you are. Every pet is different, and I make sure to customize each activity to suit their unique personality and energy level, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.
