Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any and all instructions you give me regarding your pet, and I am ready and willing to make any accommodation your pet may need. I am very well versed in the basics of pet care, as well as the more advanced needs, as I have worked with hundreds of dogs and cats in my past and am able to handle any special requirements there may be.

Information Nicole F. would like to know about your pet

It is great to know if your dog is shy or hesitant with new people, as well as if they are protective over their home, toys, or food. It is also nice to know how well they walk on the leash and how they act with other dogs when on a walk.

A typical day

When watching a dog my favorite time is play time with their favorite toy. Of course I also love a nice cuddling session with dogs who have a more couch potato vibe! When walking dogs I like to let their nose lead the way, and whatever they are interested in sniffing will be where we go!

Pet care experience

I have worked with an animal rescue, caring for both dogs and cats, for 10 years now. I have been relied on to feed, walk, bathe, and medicate pets for the rescue, friends, and family. I have a great deal of hands on experience with al kinds of dogs and cats, even ones that may not be the friendliest or easiest to take care of. I have also worked at a pet store for 3 years and have plenty of professional knowledge and experience when it comes to caring for your pet. I am also able to provide care for animals other than dogs or cats, as I care for rodents, reptiles, and birds at work, as well as have a few of my own.

Nicole was very responsive and sent consistent updates during her stay! We loved seeing our pups so thrilled to hang out with her while we were away!

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.
