Pet care experience

I like dogs more than people

I grew up with two German Shepherds, Duke and Thor. Eventually after Duke passed away we got Brie who was a "K9 drop out". My brother has a German Shepherd named Kai, my dad has a 3 legged chocolate lab, Bixby, and two cats, Socks and Olaf, that I frequently care for. I am familiar with small, medium, and large breeds. Dogs with behavioral issues, food aggression or dogs that require specific instructions.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will make sure your pet is safe by making sure there are no hazards and if we go for a walk I will keep your pet on a leash and protected against any threat. I have had many dogs off leash run up to myself and a clients dog and I always put myself in-between my clients dog and the others.

Nicole is capable & caring. Very importantly, she listens & follows instructions. We were pleased to invite her into our home & take care of our 2 dogs. I'd feel comfortable in recommending her & will surely seek her services as the situation presents itself, in the future. Jerry & Laraine

Schedule

I am an early riser, I go to the gym and run before work. If you have a high energy dog, I am a good fit for you. I will make sure your pup is tired by the end of our visit.

Let me know if your dog has food aggression, dog aggression or people aggression. My black Shepherd was a K9 drop out and she did not do well with other dogs or people.
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.
