Pet care experience

From puppies to special seniors

Hi! I am new to Rover but not new to dogs! I used to run a sled dog team in Alaska and now my own rescue crew (and fosters) has included pretty pibbles, barky beagles, high energy huskies, special care seniors, and cool cats & kittens, too. I've fostered for different rescues and volunteer to walk big dogs at the shelter. Let's chat about your pets and what they each need to thrive!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I'm happy to care for pets at your home, and take them out for adventures if they'd like. I currently rent and am not able to board pets here. I'm experienced with crate and rotate scenarios (to keep certain dogs separate), helping seniors with mobility, and supporting dogs while on medical restrictions. I am used to extra steps for escape artists or separation anxiety pups, so don't be shy in letting me know your routines.

House Sitting • jan. 02, 2026

Nicole was such an amazing pet sitter! We got 3-4 updates a day full of pictures and updates on how our babies were doing! In every picture the dogs were smiling and seemed to love her company! She also kept the house and everything so tidy and even got our mail for us! Definitely recommend booking her!!!

Nicole is everything you want in someone taking care of your dog. I've known her for a couple years and she'll treat your pet like they're her own. My dog Steve loves her and she's incredibly knowledgable about dogs and their training and caregiving needs.

I'm comfortable with any breeds, size, or special needs. I prefer a meet and greet as that's the easiest way to get most info, but in short-time frames we can discuss on a call. Let me know dietary restrictions because I love sharing (size appropriate) treats when allowed!
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.
