Safety, trust & environment

I love meeting new animals! I make sure to provide a safe environment where your animal will feel confident and less stressed. I have experience administering medications and very detailed feedings. I like to pay attention to the pets routine so that they can have a sense of comfort while you are away.

Information Nicole B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animal has any fears or dislikes, allergies to treats, or on a special exercise routine. I like the animals to be as less stressed as possible.

A typical day

I love to go for hikes and walks anywhere. Play fetch and frisbee. It’s most important to me that your dog feels safe while in my care and we have a fun experience. I like to send lots of photos! Pet photography is one of my many hobbies.

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs, cats, race and draft horses, chickens, cows, rabbits, hamsters, guinea Pigs, goats, snakes, birds, llamas, a monkey and lots of other creatures. I’d love to be able to help with your pet care needs. House sitting includes: Staying in your home with your pets. This means there needs to be a clean bed or place to sleep. While your pets will be in my care I will still need to be able to accommodate other responsibilities. Your pets will not be left for more than 7hours at a time. If your pets require 100% around the clock care, I unfortunately will not be able to accommodate this. Meet and greets are required before booking starts. Thank you so much for your time.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Nicole treated our dogs like family—spending plenty of time with them and sending regular updates with photos. It gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!

Nicole is the best. Tala, my 10 year old GS, loves her!!! Nicole is reliable and does such a great job with Tala when I am away from home. Nicole’s services give me peace of mind that Tala will be well taken care of when I am not able to be at home with her. Thank you, Nicole!

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.
