Pet care experience

Dogs and cats are my passion!

I have grown up taking care of both cats and dogs. I am a dog and cat trainer with 6 years of experience and have my own positive reinforcement pet training business. I have experience with general care of many types of pets from working at pet stores. Types of dogs I have worked with before range in size from chihuahuas to great danes. I walk high energy and large dogs. In the past, I have housesat for many dogs and cats including giving certain medications to both. I grew up around both cats and dogs and currently, I have 1 indoor cat of my own. I will gladly play with and/or feed any dogs or cats that need playtime or feeding during the day. For cats care, I require a minimum of once a day visits if you are out of town and have no one else coming to check on them. For dogs, if they have a doggy door, I require twice a day visits. If they don’t have a doggy door, 3 times a day is preferred so they can have potty breaks.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am careful to keep pets inside that need to remain so. I always make sure dogs are well leashed before taking them outside and have experience managing escape artists with cats and dogs alike. If you have a bigger dog, I may require us to do a couple of drop in visits or walks ahead of time to make sure all goes well and the dog is comfortable with me.

Nicole was so communicative and super on top of it. My shy kitty came out immediately upon meeting her. I didn’t have to worry about all of my random instructions being miscommunicated, she understood right away. Would love to have her back!

Great care of my cat, Nala. I loved the pics and the notes left about where Nicole found Nala. It was very comforting to know she would be there everyday. Thank you!!

Nicole was the best! I got daily updates and pics. Kitties were happy & relaxed when I got home, almost like I was never gone! House was clean and well-cared for too. I will definitely be booking her again.

We debated about using a service for Phil…and it was the Best Decision!! We received daily reports along with pics …and he looked quite content! Nicole was Fabulous!!….she not only took great care of Phil…but went above and beyond…hanging the bird seed out on our deck…so he could watch the birds..She also put out our fire extinguisher for our complex to inspect!..We highly recommend Nicole, and will hire her again in future!!…Thank you so much…Janice and Tim Mohr.

I would love to learn more about a pet before taking care of them so I know how to handle them properly and be able to give them the best care possible. I do require a minimum of a week’s notice so that we can set up a meet and greet ahead of time. 24 hour notice is required for booking cancellations. I take care of all breeds of dogs and cats. Please let me know your pet’s temperament, medical needs, and other details.
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.
