My whole family is pet loving and really enjoy our furry visitors. Dogs or cats are welcome as long as they are potty trained. We are all up early in my house and go to bed late so your pet will be very busy with lots of attention and activity. We treat your pet like part of our family. My youngest daughter also worked at our neighborhood animal hospital and loves to be involved.

Information Nancy H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you need anything special for your pet and I'll make sure to follow your instructions. I've confidently administer medicine to many different dogs and cats that I have watched with no problems. I am very type A, so I am very careful. The dog on my profile, Honey, is my daughter's dog and she does not live with me. Please know that Rover takes 20% from what you pay and then pays me.

A typical day

I have a great fenced in yard and live a in quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I love to walk and we'll be out multiple times a day! There is usually someone always home with me, or coming and going so your pet will not be bored :) Occasionally I have to run out to run an errand but I'm never gone very long. Because this is my home I only take 1 or 2 pets at a time and can not take Dogs that are not potty trained, have high anxiety, bark a lot or chew on house hold things.

This was the second time that Nancy watched Bentley for us, and the first time we ever repeated a sitter on Rover. We usually feel guilty about leaving him knowing that he’s likely to be miserable, but not with Nancy! He really enjoys staying with her. It’s such a relief not to worry about Bentley and actually get to enjoy a nice day out.

Nancy was great with Maisie (who isnt comfortable with just anybody. She walks the whole 1/2 hour even when its sub zero temperature- I will definitely use Nancy again

Nancy was great with my cat Winston. She was on time, very receptive of the instructions I left and had suggestions of her own to make Winston’s alone time comfortable. I’d recommend her without reservation.
