Flexible schedule Dog Mom!

There’s nothing better than coming home to a happy dog and a wagging tail! As a longtime dog mom myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention when you can’t be there. I’m self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to work with pet parents to find a routine that works best for their pets. I offer drop-in visits, walks, daytime pet sitting, and overnight stays in your home or mine. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from energetic puppies who are still working on potty training and routines to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, medication, and care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, a game of fetch or tug-of-war, some backyard playtime, meals and fresh water, or simply some company and plenty of cuddles, I’m happy to give them the attention they’re used to while you’re gone. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing yours is being cared for like I’d want someone to care for my own.

We loved having Nicci watch our two labs, Max and Lyla. She did a wonderful job taking pictures of them and keeping us up to date on how they were doing while we were away. We appreciated her flexibility and responsiveness. Highly recommended.

Nicci would be an excellent person to take care of your pet. She is kind, fun loving and enjoys spending time with animals. Among current friends, she is the first call when they need someone to look after their furry family members. The users of Rover will be in great hands with Nicci and I am sure their pets will love spending time with someone as fun and caring as Nicci!

Schedule

I am self employed and work from home most days so I have plenty of time for snuggles and walks! On days that I do leave home for appointments, I am usually not gone for long and if running errands, I can take pets with for a car ride!

Safety, trust & environment

I have access to a private fenced dog run area perfect for getting some time to play off leash. We also live downtown so there is no shortage of places to walk and explore. If your pet is more of a couch potato, we can lounge and relax inside!

We live in a loft near the Old Market! We have access to a fenced in grassy dog run and we do have a patio to get some fresh air on nice days and lounge in the sun with tons of opportunities for walks!

Before keeping another dog in our home, we would want to know how your dog behaves with other animals and ensure that they are potty trained. Also, because we do live downtown and walks typically encounter people and other dogs, would want to know about pulling and barking issues to avoid certain busier areas.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
