Hello! My name is Nick and I am a young professional with an active lifestyle. I grew up with family dogs my entire life and have been using Rover for about 4 years now. I absolutely love animals and interacting with them. I have been an animal-lover since I was a wee little tyke. My mother was a veterinarian's aide and we always had a lot of animals in our house (cats, dogs and birds). I am regularly educating myself via print and online resources and primarily employ positive praise techniques (in the punishment department, I only use ignoring or withholding praise). Let me know if there is anything you are working on with your cat/dog and I can help keep those routines when I am with them. I cannot wait to hear from you and set up a meeting with your pets to see if this is a good fit for all involved!
