I am a long time MSPCA volunteer.

Pet care experience

Animals have been a significant part of my life. Since I was a little girl, I am happiest when any animal is around me. I have been volunteering with the MSPCA for over 6 years. When I’m not fostering, my volunteer time is split between walking dogs, caring & snuggling with cats, and administering oral and subcutaneous medication. Along with the MSPCA, I also volunteer with the Humane Society fighting for animal rights. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by someone who loves animals. Being trained in CPR and first aid, I am prepared for any situation. During each dog walk or pet sitting, your pet will receive my undivided attention. I decided to leave the corporate hustle and follow my dreams of working with animals. One of the reasons, I have started my own pet sitting company is to relieve the stress (and sometimes guilt) of leaving a pet home alone all day whether you are working, on vacation, or would just like a helping hand.

I highly recommend Nicole to anyone interested in hiring a very responsible and compassionate dog sitter. She has worked diligently at the shelter (as a volunteer) to provide the dogs with the love and guidance they need to prepare them for a good home. I have trusted her with caring for my dog Sammy on several occasions. I wouldn't hesitate to leave him with her again.

I volunteer with Nicole and she is a patient and gentle caregiver with animals. She is thoughtful and kind and always follows up with the cats and dogs in her care to check on their well being. Any dog owner would find that she has wonderful communication skills and will make their pet feel safe, happy and loved.

Nicole adores both dogs and cats, but she is truly passionate about all animals and their treatment. She has been volunteering at the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (MSPCA) since 2012. She grew up with a dog, owns a cat and is currently fostering a kitten (Tali) to help her adjust to being around people. If you decide to give Nicole a chance, you will see she is a gentle soul who isn't just experienced, but also has the utmost compassion for our furry and feathered friends. On a side note, Nicole is making waves on the governmental level to get a question on this years ballot, that will mandate all caged farm animals be placed in larger quarters that are more human.

Nicole has volunteered with the MSPCA Adoption Center since the beginning of 2012 and in her time here has been an incredible asset not only to the staff, but most especially to the animals. She is involved with many aspects of the work we do-- She volunteers with our cats, is an active member of our Animal Advocacy team, represents the MSPCA at various events and is a wonderful and trusted foster parent to sick and scared shelter animals. Nicole is also one of our upper-level dog volunteers here at the shelter. This means she has gone through extensive training focused on positive behavior modification, enabling her to work with stronger and more behaviorally challenging dogs here. On top of her dedication to the important work we do, Nicole is a lovely and kind person. She is always upbeat, friendly and eager to learn new ways to help our animals. Be it gathering signatures for important animal protection legislation, walking dogs and cleaning litter boxes, or taking home feral kittens for socialization, Nicole is a great friend to us and an invaluable member of our team. I know that she would be a invaluable member of the Rover team as well!
