Pet care experience

fun, animal loving 33 yr old!

Own a Shepherd-Chow mix and a short hair cat. I also routinely babysit for a family friend's golden retriever and house sit while they are away on vacations. I house sit for a friend with 3 cats on occasion. I also have experience giving shots to animals with medical issues if necessary. I work part time during the summer and am looking to supplement my teaching career. Would love to meet you and your animal(s) if you’d like before I take care of your fur babies!

Nicki is an amazing dog sitter! She was fantastic and went the extra mile to make sure our doggies were comfortable and had great care. Highly recommend Nicki!

Nicki is great! She stayed in communication with me and sent pictures! She asked thoughtful questions, and was flexible/adaptable with our particular needs. My kitty loves her, and she was very warm and professional. We would definitely book with her again in the future!

Schedule

Over the summer I work part time and have plenty of time for walks and/or drop ins. Schedule changes weekly but not by much definitely able to accommodate your needs. During most weekdays I am a teacher so I will be out of the house 7-3:30 (unless there is a vacation or holiday)

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Nicki can host up to 1 drop-in per day
General behavior information while on walks would be great as well as if the dog plays well with others. If there are any medical concerns or medications they need to take that would be wonderful to know.
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.
