As I just completed my doctoral degree in occupational therapy, I enjoy working with people of all ages, however I love spending time with animals the most! I now work full time but I’m available for house sitting, dog walking, and drop in visits on the weekends. However, I do make occasional exceptions during the week days if the pet can be alone while I’m at work (~9 hours).

Pet care experience

With two pups of my own, I have a profound appreciation for the bond they share with their owners. I am enthusiastic about extending that same care and affection to your pets. My services include in-home visits, dog walking, and house sitting. I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, managing up to five animals simultaneously, including those with special needs. As a physically active young woman, I am well-suited to meet the varied energy levels and requirements of your pets. I am comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and breeds, having personal experience with my own dogs—a lab mix and a pit mix. I also participate in my local animal shelters Dog Day Out program where I take an adoptable pup out for the day to do activities including walking through trails, bringing them to my own fenced in yard, and of course buying them a pup cup!

Nicole kept us updated and loved our "tiny horses" just like we do! Nicole is also very funny! Can't wait to have her back.

Nicole did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups!! She sent us lot of pics and updates while we were gone and our dogs seemed very relaxed when we got home.

Nicole has been a consistent friend to our dogs and has been a joy to have as a sitter. She communicates throughly while pet sitting and in preparation for her visits. We are happy to have her over and of course the dogs love her.

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.
