Safety, trust & environment

Having a background with challenging animals I'm comfortable being someone's first dog walker/sitter or to check in on their senior pet. I try to maintain their typical routines and training methods so there's minimal disruption to their lives while their owners do what they need to! I also adhere to strict feeding routines and have experience in medicating to vets instruction

Information Nicole A. would like to know about your pet

I have a ton of experience with a variety of behaviors in all size animals, if you're unsure how your pet is going to cope with a new human in their space then I am the person for you.

A typical day

I normally try to ask owners what their pets enjoy, if they like walks and are young we can go on a nature walk! If they just want to play fetch or just cuddle that's fine too!

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.
