BEHAVIORIST, TRAINER, CPR+1ST AID!

Pet care experience

DOG BEHAVIOR IS MY PASSION!! Hi and thank you for checking out my profile! I am a certified DOG TRAINER and BEHAVIOR SPECIALIST. While I offer walking and "check-ins" I also do in-home training sessions as well as HIKING ADVENTURES. If you are interested in either of these services please send me a message so that I can build a custom quote for you! My hourly rate for in-home training is $60/hour. Hiking adventures include back-country and urban hiking, as well as swimming. Adventures typically last 2-3 hours and provide plenty of activity to wear out your dog both mentally and physically. This service is offered at $40 for the first dog and $20 for each additional dog. Keep reading to learn more about me! About Nicole: Nicole is a dog trainer and behavior specialist.

Nicole is amazing with pets! Her priority is giving your pets love and attention and playing with them. She sends pictures throughout the visit, and will text or call per your request if she needs anything. She keeps a tidy house, and both my dogs Love her. It's a great feeling to know your pets are in good hands while you are away!

Nicole, her husband, and her three dogs made Motlow feel right at home. It is obvious that she truly loves dogs. I recommend her highly.

Nicole is so generous and helpful. She will treat every dog like it were her own pup. She has 3 amazing, friendly pups that she tries to include in everything she does. She really goes out of her way to make them feel loved, safe, and tired from all the playing. They really are her kids. I would recommend you contact her to set up your next pup adventure and need. She really feels passionately about pups and wants to help you feel comfortable that while you are away they will not go without anything. She is the best!

Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know as much as possible. Specifically, I would like to know how your dog is going to respond to my coming into the house when you're not home. I would also like to know about the dynamics between multiple dogs in the house, especially regarding feeding, treats, and toys.

A typical day

I am an extremely active and loving trainer! I believe that a tired dog is a well-behaved dog. I play tug, fetch, hide-and-seek, and other "games" to wear out your dog. I also make time for lots of snuggles and love.
