Pet care experience

Loving pets is my life's purpose!

I’m available to walk your pups in most SF neighborhoods and offer overnight care for pets of all sizes. I have a flexible schedule and bring over 4 years of experience, with more than 2,000 dog walks and pet care services completed. I’ve been a dedicated dog walker and pet sitter in San Francisco for the past year, and before that, I worked as a traveling pet sitter—providing care for stays ranging from just a few nights to several months. I’d love to meet more Rover families and their sweet pets. Feel free to reach out anytime to arrange a meet-and-greet!

Nico did a great job taking care of my two cats at the tail end of a month-long trip, coming to the rescue after my previous sitter had a last minute conflict. Nico took time to sit with the cats and make sure they were at ease, in addition to of course feeding and cleaning litter boxes! Highly recommend Nico!

Nico has been extremely helpful with our elderly lab Lola, very reliable and is available each time we request her to come. She provides us with a detailed update and is very sweet with her. I can tell Lola really enjoys their visits together.

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.
