Hi, I'm Nicole and I'm here to help you with all your pet care needs! ☺️

I am a full-time dog lover and have had/been around dogs, cats, and guinea pigs since I was young. You know that person who's always deep in conversation with the pets at gatherings? Yup, that's me!
I have worked as a mobile dog washer previously where I got to meet many different doggos; giving them nice warm baths, ear and eye cleans, and coat brushes to keep them looking their best.
I would love to help you keep your fur babies company and take care of them while you're busy or away -- whether it is bringing them out for walkies, making sure they're fed and well-hydrated, giving them extra cuddles and keeping them engaged and stimulated with playtime, and ensuring they are safe and happy.
List of the Services I Provide
Please note that I work full-time hours (approx. 9 hours out) on weekdays; your fur baby has to be okay being alone inside the house during this time.
House Visits (1-hr): I will visit your house to help feed your fur baby, top up their water bowls (can also cook/meal prep if required), and take them out to toilet/clean the litter. I will also spend one-on-one time with extra cuddles and playtime.
Dog Boarding (24-hrs in my home): Let your fur babies enjoy the relaxing comforts of my home without the stress of being in a kennel/cattery. I will make sure they are well-fed and hydrated; if your pets need freshly cooked food, I can be their personal chef! I will also make sure they get their daily walks (not available if dog pulls on lead as I have an injury) and are showered with extra cuddles and love so they feel safe while you're away. I am happy to follow their routines as much as possible so that it feels familiar to them.
Doggy Day Care (10-hrs in my home, weekends only): Playtime and relaxation in the comforts of my home. I will match your fur baby's energy level and preference - whether it's for games and playtime, or a relaxing lazy day.
Their Home Away from Home
I live with my partner in a 3x2 home with a fully secured backyard; surrounded by beautiful parks. Your fur baby will be able to roam both indoors and outdoors in my home, and sleep indoors overnight. My partner is an absolute dog lover too and he always ends up becoming besties with the pets!
Think of my home as a comfortable home away from home for your fur baby. You and your furry loved one are welcome for a home viewing. Alternatively, more photos are available upon request.
Other
I have a car so I can travel around and transport your fur babies if need be for grooming appointments, vet visits, etc. Additional fees may apply for locations outside of Harrisdale and surrounding areas.
If your dog has any other pet care needs, or if you have specific requirements, or even if you have a cat or any other pet, I would still love to help! I'd be happy to try and customise the services to suit, so that we can do what's best for your furry loved one.
Meet & Greet
Before any booking, I’d love to first arrange a free no-obligations Meet & Greet with you and your pet. This is a great way for us to get to know each other and for you and your fur baby to see if you're comfortable with me.
Our pets are family, so I know how important it is for you and your fluffy loved one to be able to trust me first before you decide to book.
Thank you for reading and I look forward to hearing from you! :)

Nicole has been absolutely incredible at looking after our 2 cats while we were away. She was so caring, professional and attentive. Our 2 boys warmed up to her super quickly considering they’re usually pretty anxious around new people. She kept us updated every visit which put us at ease while away. If we weren’t moving we would still be using Nicole as the boys love her! Would highly recommend!
We are genuinely so happy with our experience with Nicole. She was absolutely fabulous is caring for our cats. When the dry food dispenser was not working properly, she was so willing to help download the app on her phone and configured everything required to fix it. Our cats love her so much too and she did everything brilliantly based on our instructions. We would love to use her service again and highly recommend her to anyone needing house sitting services for your pets! From her very happy customers, Veronica and Kelvin.
