Pet care experience
Experienced & Caring Pet Sitter
I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over ten years, providing pet sitting, walking, and drop-in visits for family, friends, and neighbors. I have experience with pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra care. I currently work in legal aid, but I continue to offer pet care when my schedule allows. Whether your pet needs a cuddle, a long walk, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like my own! What Sets Me Apart: - Experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments - Comfortable administering medication (if applicable) - Happy to help with senior pets or pets with special needs - Personalized care based on your pet’s routine and preferences - Lots of love, patience, and belly rubs! - As a Yale graduate, I bring dedication and attention to detail to everything I do—including caring for your pets!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I take pet safety seriously and will always follow your instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and home security. In your home, I’ll treat your space with respect while making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing!
Ratings and reviews
Nicholas is always amazing with Hazel! He is so attentive to her high-energy levels and we always feel safe leaving her in his care!
We found Nicholas in a pet care emergency-our regular sitter had to cancel and our flight was the next day. We really lucked out in finding him. He was so responsible and responsive in the animals adored him. He was great about communicating and sending pictures and he left the house in immaculate condition. Highly highly recommend this kind person!
Great communication!
We are so grateful to have found Nicholas! He is patient and understanding with our somewhat anxious but entirely lovable dog. Always on time, friendly, and helpful. We couldn't ask for a better dog walker. Thank you, Nicholas!
Nicholas was great with our very energetic, high-maintenance pup! He was very accommodating to a last minute request and I could tell Hazel was tired out after their walks together!!
I can personally attest to the fact that Nicholas has been a wonderful caregiver to a lively, somewhat anxious Newfie/Aussie Shepherd, an older yellow Labrador Retriever, and a range of cats and dogs of different ages, breeds, temperaments, and sizes. While on the one hand Nicholas is an energetic, imaginative caregiver capable of keeping even anxious pets engaged and happy, on the other he is an incredibly responsible, compassionate, and reliable person, who would eagerly take on any and all tasks necessary to keep your pet healthy, safe, and supported. His warmth, energy, dedication, and attention to detail would make him an incredible caregiver for any of your pets.

Schedule
I work full-time in legal aid, but I still make time for something I love—caring for pets! I’m typically available Wednesdays through Sundays for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can accommodate last-minute requests when possible.
