ABOUT

Hi, I’m Nicole – founder of Gentle Dog Canine Massage.
My journey into canine massage began with Lilo, a rescue Bull Terrier who taught me just how much healing touch can offer.
Today, I work with all kinds of dogs – from high-energy pups to slow-moving seniors – using gentle, remedial techniques that ease discomfort, support mobility, and help dogs feel grounded and safe in their bodies.
Whether you’re looking for in-person support or guidance you can follow at home, I’m here to help you care for your dog in a more connected, mindful way.
Every dog deserves a chance to live their best life, no matter their age. 🐾
