Pet care experience

Can I pet dat dog!?

Hello there! My name is Nicole, and like many of you, I LOVE animals. Currently I live in downtown Kirkland and am open to new fluffy (or scaley) friends. I have watched pets inside my own and done visits. I am only open to boarding smaller, cat friendly dogs. :) I promise you that I will love and treat your pet with kindness and love. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your furry friends, and will send many photos and updates while you are away.

I have had Nicole sit for my dog, Lola, several times and it has always been a pleasure. She is accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off times and always responds promptly. My dog is on the timid side, but she seems more at ease when I drop her off than she has been in the past with other sitters and kennels. I highly recommend Nicole and look forward to using her as a sitter in the future!

Nicole was very accommodating and easy to work with. My dog came home very happy after spending 4 days with Nicole and her two very friendly beautiful cats.

Nicole was great in being super flexible with pick up timing after my flight got delayed. She sent along adorable pictures while I was away and my dog was surprisingly calm when I returned home. Usually he is very uptight and anxious when I am away, but he seemed right at home and relaxed during his stay.

Wow X10 :-) I'm a bit late in writing this review but even about a month after looking my dog I still think back to the amazing care that she received from Nicole. It was my dogs first time staying with cats and Nicole agreed to a small pre-meet to make sure that they all got on which they did. It was great that Nicole's cats are quite used to having dogs around which I'm sure made things go smoothly. After I came back from holidays I had a small emergency and was unable to take my dog back home on the originally planned day and Nicole again was amazing and adjusted her plans to extend my dogs stay. I really can't say enough good things about her and the amazing care provided. Most people on Rover look after pets for some extra cash which is totally understandable but occasionally someone will be on here because they just love pets and Nicole is that rare someone. Would definitely be my first choice if looking for a pet sitter again .

Nicole was awesome with my pup! I would not hesitate to have her watch him again! I received updates and photos and felt very at ease knowing he was with someone who truly loves dogs. Highly recommended!

Pets

A typical day

Whatever their favorite activities are? I am on board. Whether it be sitting on the couch watching animal planet, playing fetch, or hitting the trails.

0 to 15 lbs
Crate-trained dogs only
Nicole can host up to 1 pet per night
I would love to know if your pet is good around other animals, kids, or anything that may cause them stress. Its already hard when their humans are missing.
