About Nicole M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I follow all care instructions and routines closely to keep pets comfortable while you’re away. On walks, I keep pets safely leashed and stay attentive to our surroundings at all times. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and maintain a clean, calm environment that keeps your pet at ease. I’m a non-smoker and take pride in being tidy, dependable, and detail-oriented. I’m also happy to bring in mail, water plants, or help with small household tasks to make your time away as stress-free as possible.
Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet
Before each booking, I like to understand your pet’s routine, any special needs, triggers, favorite activities, and behaviors to be aware of. This helps me maintain consistency and provide care that keeps your pet feeling safe, comfortable, and understood.
A typical day
Calm, structured, and centered around your pet’s routine. Since I work from home, I’m nearby most of the day and able to provide consistent attention and supervision. For dogs, that includes scheduled walks, feeding according to your instructions, and a balance of active play and relaxed downtime. For cats, I focus on maintaining their normal routine, incorporating interactive play when they enjoy it, and providing a calm, low-stress environment for more independent personalities. You can always expect regular updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Reliable, Attentive Pet Care
Pet care experience
In college, I lived with a very particular (and slightly dramatic) cat named Maisie who somehow decided I was her person. That experience taught me how much animals thrive when they feel secure, understood, and cared for. Since joining Rover, I’ve worked with a variety of dogs, gaining experience with different personalities, energy levels, and walking styles. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s an active walk to burn off energy or a slower, more relaxed pace with extra reassurance. I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and consistent so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident in my care.
Reviews
Nicole is a wonderful dog sitter. She stayed in our home for an extended time while we were away. She was kind, caring and took great care of our old dog who needs a little extra care. Nicole is extremely communicative and sent a ton of updates, which was great. We look forward to using her again in the near future!!
Nicole was so great with our cat Pepper! She sent so many photos updates and was super communicative throughout the time watching her. Would highly recommend!
Nicole was terrific. She came and made sure my dog felt loved and attended to.
Thank you for all the updates and pictures of Bear!
