Home FT + lunch dog park w/ my pup!

Pet care experience

Hi! I am back on Rover full time! My last job didn’t allow the time for it but I am back and excited to care for your pups. About me: My name is Nicole, and I've had dogs since I was too young to remember (lots of Cavaliers, first pup was a Bernese Mountain Dog). Henry is some sort of Tibbie/Shepherd mix. I can't live without them! I've volunteered with rescues before (lots of boxers). I work from home, and two days a week I do visits to seniors in their homes for a few hours (I would be gone for 3 hours max, come home and walk pups). I am only in the office only on Tuesdays (half day). The pup I had before Henry- her name was Goldie, had an enlarged heart and experienced syncope daily for her last year. We had 12 years together- she was 2 when I adopted her. So I am experienced with providing medications and extra love and attention. I think Henry would really like to have a house guest- and so would I! Some notes about services: Dog sitting: For dog sitting, please note that I will need to have my dog, Henry, with me. Pick ups and drop offs: I am able to pick up and drop off pets. However, please let me know ahead of time so that I can make sure my schedule can work. Location and home: I live in the Avondale/Logan Square area. We visit the Logan Square Dog Park almost every day- although I try to visit a new one once a month to explore more. I live on the third floor of my building, so if your dog is over 25/30lbs and cannot climb stairs- this may not be a good fit. I so apologize for that, but I can only lift so much :) If your dog is not crate-trained and is a chewer- just let me know! I can accommodate, tempting chewable things like shoes can always be moved. Additional rates: If your pick up time is after 4pm on the last day, I will add a half day rate ($14).

Chewie can be picky about who he trusts, but he trusted Nicole right away! She knows how to interact with dogs to make them feel right at ease. I know he’ll be in good hands with her.

Nicole was wonderful! I loved all the pictures of my Daisy Mae and her pup Henry hanging out. Nicole was very flexible and really great about communicating. She made me feel so much more comfortable about leaving for vacation.

Information Nicole B. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. If your dog does have an aggressive history I would like to know- Henry can definitely deal with all dogs and it just would depend on how the two get along :) Any food/feeding preferences or allergies. Any routines they are used to.

A typical day

I go on walks around my neighborhood, which has lots of green space and is dog-friendly. Any day I am working from home during the week, me and Henry go to the dog park- he loves fetch and the kiddie pool.
