We are so grateful to have found Nick on short notice! Nick took wonderful care of our Kip, sent lots of pictures, and made sure he got plenty of playtime and attention. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely be reaching out to Nick again :)

This was our first time leaving Ella overnight, and we knew she was in good hands with Nick. He sent us updates throughout the weekend, and checked in daily letting us know how she was doing (aka cute pics). I would recommend Nick to others!

Nick stopped by to meet me and our dog and he demonstrated instant rapport and skill with Dublin, our doodle. He showed up on time, he took Dub for a healthy walk and took the time to check in ahead because it was raining that day. We will consider Nick fir our future needs.

Schedule

By day I am an account manager who works remotely in Lawrenceville. My job is flexible so I am able to check in on your pup early in the morning before I start work and around lunch time. My weeknights are almost always wide open, and I am also free most weekends.

Nicholas can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Below is my typical checklist for new clients so that I can optimize my time with them. Energy level – Are they high-energy or more laid-back? Temperament – Friendly, shy, reactive, anxious, etc. Triggers – Any fears (e.g. loud noises, other dogs, bikes)? Leash behavior – Do they pull, bark, or need special gear? Feeding routine – Timing, diet, and any restrictions. Medical needs – Meds, allergies, or past injuries. Commands they know – Sit, stay, recall, etc. Social habits – Good with other dogs or prefer solo time? Favorite toys or treats – Helps build trust and fun fast. House rules – Couch access, crate use, off-limit areas?
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.
