Availability

I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time with pets during the day. I can easily fit regular check-ins, feeding, playtime, and cuddles into my day, and I’m happy to accommodate specific routines or schedules for your pet. I also love getting outside, so walks or supervised outdoor time are no problem for dogs.

Let me know about any special needs, medical conditions, or preferences your pet has, as well as their typical routine, favorite toys, and any quirks. This helps me provide the most personalized and stress-free care possible.

A typical day

A typical day depends on your pet’s needs! For cats, I focus on companionship, play, and maintaining a stress-free environment, lots of cuddles, interactive toys, and cozy hangouts. For dogs, it might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I always make sure pets get mental stimulation and feel loved while you’re away.

Pet care experience

I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting in NYC for several years and have built great relationships with both pets and their owners, from occasional walks to long term, daily clients. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and adjust to what each one needs, whether that’s maintaining structure for a younger dog or taking a slower, more patient approach with seniors. I also have experience working with cats and bunnies as well! Since I work remote, I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active, so long walks and consistent routines are something I naturally prioritize. I love exploring the city and making sure dogs get not just exercise, but mental stimulation and a positive, safe experience while they’re with me. I grew up caring for horses, which instilled a strong sense of responsibility and attentiveness when it comes to animals, and I carry that into how I care for every pet, treating them as if they were my own. I always send photo and video updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Nicole was very responsive and helpful! She replied the day before and dropped my dog off at my workplace at the end of the day. Would definitely work with her again!

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.
