I work from home (fully remote) so would never leave your pet during the workday to commute to an office. I have a very flexible schedule so I can easily take your pet out to go to the bathroom and walk whenever.

Safety, trust & environment

I live within walking distance of the Panhandle and Golden Gate Park. I also have a fenced backyard, so I have access to plenty of places to walk dogs. I live on the garden level of a Victorian home, so it is very easy for me to take the dog outside. I would let your dog roam freely around my 2 bedroom unit, but don't allow dogs on the couch or bed.

Dog lover of all shapes and sizes!

Pet care experience

I rescued a puppy in 2010, trained him, walked him daily, and loved him unconditionally through his energetic puppy phase, teen angst (not actually because he was always happy), adulthood, and silver sunset senior days. He lived a happy and healthy 14 years, and now I am joining Rover to continue my care for dogs until I feel ready to adopt a new puppy. I have boarded several family and friend's dogs in the past since they know I am responsible, active, and trustworthy!

Thank you Nicole! Mochi had a wonderful day with you and you took amazing care of her today 🤗. I loved her pictures and it gives me peace at work knowing she is so happy!

Nicole was the perfect sitter for our senior golden retriever! We've used Rover many times, and Nicole stands out as the best. We had complete confidence that our dog was well taken care of and adored while we were away. Nicole went above and beyond to work with us on an unusual dropoff situation we had to coordinate through a friend while we were out of town, and gracefully handled a tense dog interaction at the park that not everyone would manage so well. She was easy to communicate with and very prompt to reply, and kept us up to date with pictures and videos of how our dog was doing. We will happily trust Nicole with our dog again in the future!

Nicole cared for my dog, Momo, and I can't recommend her highly enough! She followed my care instructions to a T — multiple walks a day, precise feeding ratios, the works — and still found ways to go above and beyond. I loved getting frequent photo and video updates of the two of them playing together. It was clear Momo was loved and in great hands. I felt so at ease knowing Nicole was caring for Momo. As a longtime dog owner herself, Nicole genuinely understands animal behavior and care. She's the real deal!

Can’t sing enough praises about Nicole and her dog sitting services - a true animal lover at heart! We’ve used her privately for over 15 years for our two dogs. She is loving, enthusiastic, reliable and completely trustworthy. Our neighbors even watched and inquired about using her. We use Nicole as often as we can to take care of our furry family member 💕
