About Nikole Z.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
For any pets: I would strictly follow any directions given, such as walking times, feeding times/amounts, and active/play time requests regardless if they are in my home or the client's home. Sleeping accommodations will be made with the utmost comfort for the pet kept in mind. For cats: Same as above. I am also comfortable walking and bathing cats, if needed. Currently, my cats are fed with timed feeders, I clean their litter daily, at minimum, and will either give them one hour of outdoor time or playtime indoors (and of course cuddles as requested). I bathe them usually every couple of months when I notice they NEED it because otherwise, I am fully aware that cats bathe themselves.
Information Nikole Z. would like to know about your pet
Please be sure to share any details or specifics about your pet's needs. I will be sure to accommodate and fulfill all needs/requests. I would prefer to have a meet and greet scheduled before the start of care so that I can get to know you and your pet, plus their routine, and discuss expectations.
A typical day
I can make sure your pet(s) have a day filled with fun activities, such as games of fetch, chase, cat and mouse, snuggles, walks, and anything else you request!

Pet care experience
Growing up, my family always had cats and dogs around (indoor and outdoor), so taking care of cats/kittens and dogs/puppies is like second nature for me. Currently, I care for two cats named Lucy and Socks. I have experience with both sexes and every stage of cat/dog life from helping deliver and care for kittens/puppies, and helping with spay/neuter recovery, to understanding the sadness and pain of having to put down a pet for medical illness. I also have experience with fostering pets from animal shelters. I also have limited experience with reptiles and aquatic animals, such as fish, tortoises, turtles, and snakes. Furthermore, I am a CPR-certified and experienced childcare provider and pre-service teacher. So, if you need someone you can trust who cares for others, I'm your gal.

Reviews

I just got back from a 3-day trip and am so grateful for the amazing care my dog received! Nikole was attentive, communicative , and made sure everything went smoothly. My dog was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after when I got home. She really went above and beyond, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!


Nikole showed up on time and the pups loved her.
