Pet care experience
The main reason that I became a dog sitter is to be able to provide love and care for owners when they are away. I know first hand how difficult it can be to find quality care for your best friend while you’re out of town, so I’m here to fill that gap! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, and getting to see animals thrive is simply a passion of mine! Being able to play with the pets I take care of is what makes me happiest. I have lots of experiences with dogs professionally and personally. My pet sitting career began when I was 16 years old when I pet sat for neighbors and people in my community. I loved it! I transitioned into being a Rover sitter not long ago and haven’t looked back since. I currently have one Yorkie of my own, who is very friendly and welcoming to all new dogs. My number one priority during a stay is to make sure that you and your pup feel completely comfortable and happy. I like to get as much information as possible from owners so I can make your pooch feel right at home with me! I always follow owners instructions to a “T,” since no one knows your dog better than you do! I’ll also send lots of updates with accompanying pictures to document just how much fun we’re having together. I work at an elementary school as a teacher and my husband works close to home. He is always able to go home to let out your fur babies and then when I get home, they receive an abundance of love. *** IMPORTANT DOG BOARDING RATE INFORMATION *** Small Dogs -$25 standard daily rate -$30 holiday daily rate *** Additional dog rates are for each pet you leave after the first one. For example, if you have 2 dogs, the first one would be charged a standard rate and the other would be the 'additional dog rate'. This rate is lower so that it is more accommodating to owners. :) Additional Dog Rates -Small Dogs: $18 daily rate Additional Dog Rates for Holidays -Small Dogs: $22 daily rate ***Drop Off/Pickup Information*** - Drop off/Pick Up time during the week 3:45pm-9pm - Drop off/Pick Up during Saturday & Sunday 9am-9pm **Please Note: DROP OFF/ PICK UP: Please be on time when it comes to scheduled drop off & pick up times. Please, let me know what your pick up & drop off times are PRIOR to the stay. This is necessary so it does not interfere with my daily routine or so I can prepare your pups things for pickup. (if any delays should occur, let me know, I am understanding) Thank you for understanding! Additional Info/Tips ** Also, please make sure your dog is free of fleas/ticks. My yard is professionally treated monthly for all insects. I am a teacher in an elementary school and my husband is working and is also able to go home for lunch breaks etc for those dogs who need a bit more time outside than normal. I ensure that once I get home, the dogs are cuddled non stop as if they were in their own homes. In my home, I follow exactly what you instruct me to do. For the safety of all animals under my care, when we go on walks, I always use a leash. I also ensure than your pet is taken care of exactly as instructed so they feel right at home.
Reviews
She was awesome
Nicole was absolutely amazing. She sent multiple videos and pictures of my dog while I was out. She took such great care of him throughout his stay. She was incredibly flexible and she is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. I would use her over and over again. My boy was so happy throughout his entire stay and I know he had a blast. She played with him constantly and gave him lots of affection and attention. The very best experience I have had on Rover to date!
Nicole was awesome. She was flexible as we weren’t sure our final plans and took great care of our three Golden’s while we got away for the day. Having her come check on them allowed us to have fun without the guilt of leaving them behind. We will certainly be using her again
I’m so lucky to have found Nicole, she was perfect and did everything I asked and more. She was very nice and I felt like I could trust her right away. She even took the time to come to my apartment before I left town to see where everything was. I will absolutely rehire Nicole every time I have to go out of town or need a trustworthy person to check in my cats. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Thank you Nicole!

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
A healthy dog is a happy dog! I love going outside to play with your pup and allow them to run around and explore! There are tons of great things to sniff and see! We’ll make sure to get out and about just as often as your pup enjoys. I’m also happy to meet them at their level as well, whether that be high-energy playtime or just cuddles on the couch. My home is welcoming and clean. I love the space in my neighborhood and how the dogs can play outside (with supervision) and have so much fun.
