Pet care experience

Comfort and routine is my goal

I love all dogs and cats as my own. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and cats for half that. I’m experienced with simple puppy training all the way to senior dog care. Making your pets happy and fulfilled makes me happy. I have experience with dogs from puppy age to elderly and I’m comfortable with medications. I also understand the requirements of foster dog and cats.

Safety, trust & environment

I take no chances when it comes to mine or yours. I am attentive and alert to my surroundings on walks, and I am careful about any escape artists that would try to get past me on visits. I adhere to your pets routine. I believe it’s in the best interest of your cat or dog to make my visit as normal and routine as possible. I will follow your directions as precisely as I can to ensure a happy and comforting visit. **for dogs only: if you are out of town and do not want housesitting or boarding I require a minimum of 3 drop-ins daily. This is in the dogs best interest socially, behaviorally, and health. Constant Care (housesitting only): if your pet cannot be alone for more than 4 hours this falls under constant care and will be priced accordingly. I am available for weddings this coming season. If you want your pup to share your special day with you I can make that happen! I promise a stress free evening with me as your dogs date.

Professional, on time and my pup was at ease with Nicole. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my furry friend was being cared for by someone who love dogs as much as me.

Schedule

Expectations for each service: Meet and Greet is required (and free) for all new clients. Drop ins - letting dog(s) outside, feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter, topping off litter, sweeping litter area, light playtime. Walks - 25 minute walk, 5 minutes for leashing up, other dogs are avoided either by crossing the street or turning back the way we came. Boarding - Your dog must get along with my dog and it is required they meet beforehand, no exceptions. Photos/updates sent twice a day, playtime outside, walks, feedings take place separately from my dog/cats. Please bring a dog bed, crate, harness, leash, food bowl, food, supplements, treats, and a blanket/clothing that smells like home. Dogs typically are only home alone for 1 to 3 hours a day. Housesitting - Dogs/cats routine is followed within my capabilities and schedule (only applies if I have drop ins and walks with other clients). Photos/updates twice a day. Up to two walks per day are included. Non-pet related information: basic cleanliness (your house will look the same as you left it), vacuum before I leave, mail, watering plants, taking garbage/recycling out. I have an open and flexible schedule and can typically accommodate last minute requests. I am very familiar with hospital workers and their schedule so I am used to doing early morning visits, midday visits, and late evening visits, and am available for daycare transportation as well.

I love a good detailed list. Please don’t fret about the amount of information you give me! The more I know the better I can care for your animals. Please inform me how long your dogs are okay being alone as well as any crating/boarding rules. It’s important for me to know how your dog reacts to other dogs and people, for instance if we’re on a walk.
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.
