A typical day

I start my day early and would take the dogs out for a short walk before giving them their breakfast routine. My girlfriend then would be able to provide a couple walks throughout the day or playtime in a nice backyard. When I get home from work I would take the dogs out again for a walk. Feed them their evening meal if need be and then another walk and play time before we pack it in for the evening.

Nick is an exceptional dog sitter who goes above and beyond to ensure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. From the moment we met him, it was clear he truly cares about animals and takes the time to understand each dog’s unique personality and needs. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Nick was also great with updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!

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.
