Hat Maker with a Heart for Animals!
Hi there! I’m a full-time hat maker and lifelong animal lover based in Los Angeles (West Hills/Northridge area) with a flexible schedule and a warm, easygoing vibe that animals seem to love. Though I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years around dogs, horses, and reptiles, and I’ve even volunteered in hospital settings & a therapeutic riding center —so I’m calm, attentive, and great in all kinds of situations. Here’s a fun twist: I occasionally design hats for internet-famous dogs—and yes, maybe I can send you an update picture with your dog in a funny hat! Whether your pup is the adventurous type or prefers couch snuggles, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and entertained. I typically only take one dog client at a time, so I can give your pet the full attention it deserves. I’m new-ish to Rover but I’ve dog sat for a few elderly dogs so far. I also do have experience caring for elderly and special-needs humans through hospital volunteer work and internships. I’m very comfortable administering medications and even injections, and I’m pet first aid/CPR course certified. I’m educated & responsible. I am a UCLA grad with a degree in Microbiology, Immunology, & Molecular Genetics and Art History. Let me know how I can help!

Ratings and reviews
Nancy was great with Angus and really put us at ease. We really enjoyed the daily updates.
Nancy showed incredible care for my Great Dane Ziggy. She sent timely pictures and updates throughout her stay and left the space exactly how she found it. I felt like I left my pet with family. Highly recommend to anyone looking for peace of mind when they can’t take their pup with them
We had a great experience with Nancy. She was very responsive from the start and kept us updated multiple times a day (with pictures) on how our dog was doing, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Everything was left clean and tidy, and the whole experience felt very professional. We’d be happy to book with her again.
Nancy is a fantastic sitter! She is gentle and adaptive to our anxious pup. Nancy is punctual, attentive, intelligent and trustworthy. Very grateful to have found her!
Nancy was great in communicating and caring for my dog. She went above and beyond and was a great companion for an older dog. My dog was a happy camper!
Nancy is an absolutely amazing dog walker and house sitter. She has taken care of her own dog which lived until age 17 and has helped to care for dogs for family and friends. She’s house sat for me in Chinatown apartment and Highland Park house many times and has kept the places clean, taken care of house plants, and managed things like mail. She’s great at following directions as she’s had experience volunteering at hospitals and following dedicated schedules and plans. I have walked dogs with her several times and she has a special touch with animals- dogs love her! I appreciate Nancy greatly. Going on trips is easier when I know she is around to help.
