Highlights
Pet care experience
Certified Pet Lover
I’ve cared for my own dog for the past five years, and it is one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I love spending time outdoors, especially walking around the Emerald Necklace. Jamaica Pond, the Arboretum, and Franklin Park are some of our regular spots. Through caring for my dog and my Rover clients, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Dogs and cats are not just pets. They are part of the family, and I treat every animal in my care that way. I especially enjoy caring for cats while their owners are traveling. I understand the importance of following feeding instructions, keeping water and litter areas clean, respecting a cat’s space, and providing playtime or companionship based on their personality. I am also comfortable caring for multiple pets and following detailed household routines. Whether your pet needs a walk, a vacation drop-in, playtime, or simply some good company, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. You can also expect dependable communication and detailed photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands!

Safety, trust & environment
I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether that means an energetic walk, extra playtime, a clean litter area, or quietly keeping a shy cat company, my goal is to help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also provide dependable communication and photo updates so you can feel confident while you are away.
Ratings and reviews
Nick was great! Very communicative, responsive, and considerate. Will rebook again in the future.
Nick showed up on time and tried to engage with my cat. The cat just wasn’t into him and was a little defensive the whole time. I appreciate the effort he put in.
This was my first time using Rover, and I had a great experience. I was away from my cat for four days and was quite worried at first, but I soon felt relieved knowing she was in such good hands. He took great care of her, kept me updated, and made me feel comfortable while I was away. My cat warmed up to him very quickly and clearly enjoyed spending time with him, which meant a lot to me. I really appreciate the care and attention he gave her, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Nick provided excellent care for my little guys while I was away!
Nick was such a pleasure! He was timely with his check-in visits for our two dogs and provided great updates each time. Definitely planning to work with him again!
Nick did a stellar job of looking after my cat Jack, will definitely use him in the future!

Schedule
As a working professional, I’m fortunate to have flexibility before and after work, which allows me to make pet care part of my daily routine. I am available for morning and evening walks, vacation drop-in visits, feeding, litter care, playtime, and companionship. I make sure each pet’s normal schedule stays as consistent as possible while their family is away.
