Pet care experience

I am an animal lover living in College Area who would enjoy the opportunity to take care of your cat(s) or doggo(s)! I grew up with cats and have had one of my own. I also adopted my senior dog Parker in COVID times, who is no longer with us but taught me so much and I miss dearly! I am prompt, enthusiastic, clean, compassionate and reliable as a pet sitter and dog walker. I am strong enough for large dogs and active enough for dogs that require a run or hike.

I keep coming back to Nicole for drop in visits for my cats when I’m away because she’s reliable, communicative and accommodating when we need to get creative for exchanging keys and whatnot. Thanks Nicole!

Nicole continues to be our favorite cat sitter! She is so kind and dependable and always sends us lots of photos and videos to reassure us our sweet boy is doing well.

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.
