Pet care experience

I grew up having a few dogs and I really love being around them! They make me so happy and are such great companions. I have watched my own dogs growing up that I had with my family many times and have been alone with them. I have been around them for over 15 years so I like to think I understand the in and outs of them pretty well. To be able to do this for my full time job is truly a blessing. I'm just so grateful for Rover. I have been a part of the app since March 2021. I look forward to working with you and your pet whenever you need me! I try to be a very friendly person and be kind to everyone I meet so hopefully I will be able to come and meet your dog 🐶and/or cat 🐈 soon! I also have some experience with cats too just to let you know. Have an awesome day and thanks for stopping by my profile. 😊☀️🦮❤️

I was very hesitant to use rover. I did not like the idea of random people just coming into my home. Then we found Nicholas and I am so happy we used rover. He has helped me out so many times and my 3 year old golden doodle loves him. I highly recommend using Nicholas if you’re looking for an amazing person to care for your dog.

Nicholas was amazing. It was my first time using Rover and it was last minute, I was far away from my dog at home and was so nervous but he talked me through everything and was so understanding! I knew my pup was in good hands and I can’t thank Nicholas enough!

Nicholas was really committed to taking care of our pets -- he kept us informed of what was going on with them several times a day. He's the best!

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.
