Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Nicole and I am 27 years old. I have been around pets and animals my whole life, having pet sat since I was 12-13. I have experience with dogs and cats, of all ages and kinds. I also have experience giving medication to both dogs and cats. I have a Miniature Pinscher, Nala who is 8 years old and a calico cat, Emmie who is 10 years old. I have lived with many different animals throughout my life, including a home with 8 cats and 3 dogs. In this household, I also was able to get first-hand experience fostering kittens. I truly am passionate about animals and adore pets of all kinds. Currently, I am attending the Academy of Art University part-time online and would like to use rover to book gigs for extra income. Cheers!

Nicole took great care of our cat, Olive, over the busy July 4th holiday weekend. She completed drop-in visits while we were away, and we really appreciated the updates and photos she sent. Since it was a holiday weekend, things get busy with traffic and such. Nicole communicated with us promptly when there was a delay in the check in time, which we appreciated and helped put our minds at ease. Olive was well cared for, and we came home to a happy kitty. We’d be happy to have Nicole watch Olive again!

Nicole has taken care of our elderly cat on a few occasions now and has been wonderful. All kitty dishes are clean and dry. My cellphone service was poor the last time we went out of town and she made a great judgement call regarding his medication. So happy I found her!

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.
