“Ellie is wonderful with my 6 month old Goldendoodle, Jack. She walks him all over my hilly neighborhood for an hour every day. Jack loves to go with Ellie, and gets all excited when I tell him she’s coming. She is gentle and kind, and knows how to handle Jack, with all of his puppy energy.”
About: Hi there! I'm Nicole, and I am offering pet and house care services. I am 26 years old from Derry and I have a ton of experience with dogs, as well as growing experience with cats and chickens! I love being able to create a strong bond with these animals, and your babies will get so much love while you're away. If you need help with anything - from delivering insulin injections, to vet aftercare, to just playing with them when you can’t - I can help you out! I'm currently finishing my master's degree and decided to take a breath from the position I was working, so this summer I have an open schedule with only one week blocked off. I have my own transportation and I am prioritizing my pet and house care! I am unable to offer care for pets in my own home at this time. When I come to your home, I will follow any instructions you leave and I do my best to keep things the way you have them or would like them. If I am staying at your home, I can also clean as requested and I will always clean up after myself. It will always be only me in the home and around animals unless I request otherwise. I am a quiet person and keep to myself for the most part, and I like to limit my electricity use when in someone else's home.
“I wish I could give more stars for Erin. She is so friendly and easy-going and loves animals. I was nervous about using Rover but trust me once you meet Erin you will feel totally at ease!!Thank you, Erin.”
“Kelsey did a great job walking my little Maltese. He gets very excited when he first starts his walk and Kelsey was very gentle with him. We will definitely schedule another walk again. Thanks again Kelsey!”

At home, we have all the tools we need to be successful in our visit and the love of a companion to make it even better!

Kerri B.
“Kerri is a dog "whisperer". She has both pet sat for my 3 dogs and walked them. My dogs are not the easiest. I have a Jack Russell puppy, an 8 year old Beagle and a senior Chihuahua that all have different needs, diets and energy levels. Our dogs are our children and we had absolutely NO reservations leaving them in Kerri's capable hands. She even slept at out house while we were gone (our request) so that there wasn't such a big disruption in our dogs routine. 5 STARS!!!!”
