A PET Sitter w/15+ Years Experience

Pet care experience

Pet sitting since 1998…in your home, short-term, long-term, in town or out. With 15 years experience and excellent local references, including clients I’ve worked with for over 10 years. A big perk using my services is that I don’t have a regular 9-to-5 job so I’m around most all the time, good company for your animals & also added security for your property. Plus, I’m fit & active, happy to walk dogs...any distance...and/or visit dog parks, go swimming, etc...matching your pet's preference and routine. REFERENCES BEN/Beagle: “My beagle, Ben, spent the day with Nic, including a hike on the 4-mile Borrega Triangle Trail. Ben came to me after a traumatic early life & he’s now very attached. The best compliment I can give Nic is when I picked Ben up, he wagged his tail, sniffed me & went back out on the balcony to sit in the sun. Obviously, he loved Nic & felt totally comfortable with her.” -Tina- LULU/Himalayan: “Lulu loves when Nic is over. She makes up games & keeps her purr-fectly entertained. I’ve bought so many toys, yet Lulu only likes the ones Nic creates from everyday household items. Lulu follows Nic everywhere because she is so interactive with her. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter, such peace of mind when I’m away.” -Nicole- SMILLA/White Shepard: “Nic saved my life (& Smilla’s) when I sprained my ankle & couldn’t exercise for months. Even though she was old, Smilla was active & always excited when Nic came over for their 20-minute outings. Also, I trusted Nic to stay at the house, confident Smilla would be well taken care of when I traveled…& she’d get to chase balls, her favorite thing. I’m so grateful Nic came into our lives. I highly recommend her.” -Marjie- SQUEAKY/Cat: “Nic took great care of my two elderly cats, feeding, giving a pill, AND clearing away a fine-feathered present one had oh-so-carefully wiggled through the cat door. Squeaky & Six didn’t seem to miss me at all. Nic texted great photos of them outside enjoying the sunshine.” -Karen- NOVA/Golden Retriever: “I whole-heartedly recommend Nic for house & dog-sitting. Nova loves her & hardly seems to notice I’ve been gone! Nic takes her hiking, to the dog park & spends lots of time with her. And, the house is in great shape when I return. I have hired Nic 2x during long vacations with no worries about the pup or house while I am away.” -Kris-

Wow was Nic amazing with our Twizzler! Our Jack Russell Terrier, Twizzler, went blind in January of 2018. We had a graduation to attend in Austin and this was our first time to leave him since his blindness. I can't tell y'all how happy I was that I found Nic to stay with him! She stopped by the house TWICE prior to the booking to get herself acquainted with Twizz. She asked questions to clarify things I hadn't considered, ie what words to do use when walking to make sure he doesn't bump into things, or when we leave the house. She kept our house clean, water the yard, and picked up the mail. The best thing though is that she sent constant updates on how Twizzler was doing along with pictures. She let me know when she was leaving the house and when she would be back. I couldn't be happier with Nic or more grateful. Having her there gave us peace of mind while we were across the country and allowed us to enjoy the weekend. Thank you Nic! & Twizz looks forward to seeing you again!

Nic is the most wonderful pet sitter! She has such a good rapport with my beloved Charlotte. I know that Charlotte will get the exercise and attention she needs when I'm away. I trust her implicitly, so I'm never worried when I travel. Nic is the only pet sitter that I refer my friends to. She's the best, I'm so grateful!
