Since May 2023.

Hi there! I'm Nicole, and I live in the scenic Omaha. At 30 years old, I immersed myself into the rewarding world of pet and house sitting full-time back in May 2023.

During the past 2+ years, I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of pets, including dogs of both older and younger ages, cats both strictly indoor, and those who enjoy free roaming. Additionally, I have even had the pleasure of taking care of pigs and chickens, adding to my diverse experience.

In addition to my pet and house sitting endeavor, I have spent the past five years thriving as an on-the-ground Property Manager for holiday homes scattered throughout Auckland and Leigh. I now spend my days at home/going on walks (with your pet/s) hunting down new clients and opportunities, for my cleaner Mary and her crew who do the on the ground work for me. So my time at your booking, is dedicated time with your pet/s.

Alongside my experience across 20+ different house and pet sits (with some of them being repeat sits), I also had the distinct privilege of having a beautiful golden Labrador named Bella. For 14 wonderful years, she graced my life until she sadly passed away in 2020. Bella deeply ingrained in me the understanding that our pets are not merely animals; they are beloved family members. Throughout my life, I have also always been surrounded by cats, and I currently have two lovely, beautiful young kitties, Bilbo and Oscar, who live with my parents.

Alike my current clients who have entrusted me to manage their properties for many years, I would be immensely appreciative and truly grateful for the opportunity to look after yours! I possess a vast knowledge of how to take excellent care of a property, and rest assured, your animals would have an abundance of love, companionship, and cuddles while in my care.

    "Nicole minded our elderly dog for seven weeks while we were overseas and another 4 weeks, 5 months later. She took utmost care of him. We could not have asked for more. He had an incident where he needed an out of hours vet visit and Nicole handled this amazingly. I would recommend Nicole to anyone."

She is an excellent communicator and we appreciated the messages and videos she sent us. We came home to a clean and happy house which was wonderful. Would highly recommend Nicole. The cats look forward to having Nicole to take care of them again."
