Safety, trust & environment

I tailor my visits according to your pet's needs. I can do as many visits per day as you would like. I can also stay longer if you need. When I do "housesitting " , its a bedtime visit, sleepover & morning visit before I head out for other clients. I will do as many drop-in visits as you would like during the day before I return for the overnight (housesit).

Information Nicole P. would like to know about your pet

Any medications they might need. Feeding info, How they act on walks when other dogs are passing by. I love to know what kind of games they might play or their favorite toys. An emergency contact person is also required just in case.

A typical day

We go walking in your neighborhood or play in your yard. If your dog has an area they like to walk to they can lead the way. If the weather is yukky or super hot, we go out to potty then back in to play with toys or cuddle then back out for another potty before I go.

Thank you for choosing me!!

Pet care experience

Im in my 50's but Ive always loved animals since i was very young.. i was in 4-H as a teenager & thats when I started petsitting. When I was 28 i started my petsitting/housesitting business. I had that business for 20 years in Ohio. We moved here in 2019. I have continued my petsitting here & love what I do! My visits are about 30 minutes. I do feeding, watering, litter boxes, medications, insulin is okay also. I will bring in the mail and newspaper and water plants & fill birdfeeders. I enjoy walking dogs as well as playing with them in their yard. I am comfortable with many other pets including cats, Birds, fish ()I have a 40 gallon aquarium, & a 10 gallon) hamsters, gerbils (& other rodents) guinea pigs, ferrets, rabbits, iguanas and other lizards. Thank you so much! I also have experience with horses, ducks, goats & a few cows lol!

Nikki always takes such good care of our cats both the indoor and outdoor. We always get nice pictures of the kits. We really appreciate all she does for us.

Nikki always goes above what we expect. One of the cats was on the top of the cabinets and knocked off a bowl. It shattered and Nikki texted me to find out where a broom was. I told her and she not only cleaned up the mess from the bowl, but she swept part of the living room and dining room as well. She is a great cat sitter and we are very very happy that we found her.

Nikki did everything we asked and more. We will definitely use her again when we travel. We have one cat that hides from everyone and the very first day she was at the house, she sent a picture of her petting that cat. She is a “cat whisperer” for sure.

Nicole did a fantastic job taking care of our pack (dogs and cats). She is a very experienced sitter with excellent skills. I really appreciated her feedback as well as her attention to details and mature judgement in solving issues. I absolutely recommend Nicole!

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.
