Pet care experience

I'm a New York City native who lived in Philadelphia for a few years. Now, I am back in my home state and reside in Queens. Through Rover, I am able to look after and befriend dogs + cats + other pets whenever guardians are out-of-town and/or an additional helper is needed. *** If this is your first time using Rover, use promotional code: NANC84721 to save $20 off the cost of your first booking! *** Animal advocacy is one of my great interests + my level of involvement has increased over the years. I volunteered with PAWS {Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society} & other PA-based rescues, assisting with: adoptions, TNR, community outreach, events, and fostering. I have fostered: kittens, adult cats, senior cats, and dogs (young, older, special needs). In fact, my two pets (pictured here) are foster-fails from 2019! If a short distance away, mini meet-and-greets are available in person. If farther out, virtual meetings are the way to go. In terms of availability, weekdays + weeknights + holidays are available. I look after Rover pets like my own. I’m quite comfortable rolling around on the ground playing with animals - never afraid of getting dirty. I'm fully vaccinated & always masked for meet & greets, dog-walking or similar. For those seeking drop-in services while away: please let me know if you would like me to grab packages, pick up mail, and/or water plants. I am mindful and respectful of whatever training regime or personal preferences a pet guardian might have. I am totally at ease responding to questions or last minute requests so please don't hesitate to reach out!

There simply aren’t words or character spaces enough to do Nancy justice. Whether recommending the latest in pet products, celebrating animal and parent milestones with handpicked gifts, or lavishing our dogs with love and praise, Nancy goes miles above and beyond the bark of duty. A source of thoughtfulness and care to four- and two-legged creatures alike, she’s seen us through pet loss as well as gain, and we marvel to this day at our luck in finding her!

Nancy again, went above and beyond. She communicates well and even argued with the doorman who wasn't aware she was supposed to be there (miscommunication on my part) to make sure my cat was fed. I can always depend on her for great service

This was the first time my family and I had left the country for such a long time. Initially, I was skeptical about hiring someone to come to my house, especially to take care of my baby. However, after researching and reading reviews, I felt confident hiring Nancy. I reached out to her, and she responded within minutes. She explained how Rover works, and we discussed my cat’s expectations and needs; she gave me the assurance and peace of mind I needed. Nancy took care of my fur baby for a whole week. She visited him once a day, fed him, cleaned his litter box, and played with him. She was always available to answer my questions and address my concerns. She regularly shared pictures of my baby. I highly recommend Nancy to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur babies. I will definitely hire her again in the future. Thank you, Nancy, for taking such good care of Mateo🐈😍😍🫶🏼

Nancy is wonderful! She has dropped in for my finicky kitties multiple times and every time she is communicative, caring, and dependable. She always leaves my apartment and kitties clean and well cared for. I recommend Nancy wholeheartedly and am grateful for her work!

Information Nancy C. would like to know about your pet

It'd be helpful to have an understanding of a pet's personality: is your pet aggressive towards cyclists, strangers, skaters, and/or other animals? Is your pet made uncomfortable by city sounds or does that doggo and/or cat have a placid temperament? How much socialization + training does your pet have, is pulling on the leash an issue? Does your feline and/or canine friend take time to warm up to strangers? I definitely recommend scheduling a Meet & Greet to discuss all of the above.

A typical day

Soaking up the sights and sounds, strolling through the neighborhood. During the summer months, it is particularly important to keep animals hydrated and comfortable in the wamrer temps. Please be sure to let me know if your pet requires a cooling vest for walks or a thundershirt for daycare and/or walk purposes.
