Pet care experience
Joy in dogs has been the most positive and healing experiences for me. My husband and I recently lost our amazing Sawyer Pup. As we struggle with the grief we have had the incredible experience to use Rover as a way to help heal that sorrow with the space to grieve. Such an awesome gift. Dogs have always held a very special and large place in my life. Growing up as a kid in apartments, a dog was something I always hoped of having but due to the circumstances, it was never time for me to have a dog of my own. However, this full on passion for these fluffy, furry friends needed an outlet. Early on, I started walking friend’s and neighborhood pups. As I grew up, I found that people really trusted me with their fur babies and would have me come and stay days to houses sit and give lots of love to their sweet dogs. As I mentioned, I had an amazing and crazy hyper, sweetheart named Sawyer. He is a mini Aussie and the fluffiest, full of a kind soul kind of dog. He definitely kept me a healthy, happy human and as I shift to a new season without him here I would like to help. If you’re in need of a caring, patient, calm dog walker; please reach out. 🐾 Currently working 100% from home so have lots of flexible in my schedule to provide walks, check ins and play date throughout the weekdays and most weekends. Hardwood floors for easy clean up. Cozy dog friendly house. House comes standard with all the squeaky toys!
Reviews
Copper loves his daycare days with Nichelle & Sawyer! He gets plenty of walks and cuddles☺️ Thanks so much Nichelle for the regular updates, Copper is very comfortable staying with y’all. Looking forward to having him visit for more daycare & drop-ins.
Nichelle is wonderful with our boy. She takes him for long walks and loves to be with her.
Nichelle has been so awesome with my dog - Charlie. He get's so excited to go for a walk with her. She very prompt and takes good care of him. She's great!!
This was my first time using Rover - I felt very comfortable leaving my dog, Briggsy, with Nichelle and her pup, Sawyer. We went to her house for a meet and greet before our trip and Sawyer and Briggsy hit it off immediately. Her house has the perfect outdoor/patio space for the pups to run around and the inside was very dog friendly. Nichelle was an incredible communicator- sent me cute photos and videos throughout my entire trip. I’ll definitely book Nichelle again for future trips!

Safety, trust & environment
I would prefer to only pick up/ drop off dogs at their home for walk in their neighborhood but can totally come by and check in, provide playtime or multiple potty breaks throughout a day if possible.
Information Nichelle S. would like to know about your pet
Vital information for me to best care for your pet would include any behavior quirks on walks, such as lunging at bikes or hates white vans (these were a couple of my dog’s weird twitches) or if they love a good belly rub. Anything that would make our stay together more harmonious.
A typical day
A typical day with me starts with a long urban hike around my lovely Foothills’ neighborhood. I love stopping by and enjoying the wildflowers at our pocket park or for a more vigorous workout we also have Power Trail super close. Once back to a well cooled house we will have a light healthy snack and filtered water to hydrate. Then we have plenty of cozy places to snuggle and relax. If your pup is still needing some extra play time; we have a house full of puzzles, games and plenty of the best squeaky toys a dog could ever want.

Availability
I am currently pursuing my real estate broker employment so will have flexibility to walk your pup. We have recently moved so do not have a fence for my home stay or overnight but hope to have that remedied in the next several months.
