Vet nurse,love pets,stay near home!

Hello all, I am a 9 year experienced registered veterinary technician (MO RVT) currently employed full-time at a local St. Louis clinic looking to earn a little extra income. I have worked with regularly & am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, rodents, birds, & reptiles. I love the outdoors, not afraid of rain or heat (grew up with St. Louis weather), used to early & late hours, & have a somewhat flexible schedule covering from Hazelwood to Maryland Heights. I'm unable to travel farther for lunch visits w/ my new job. Thanks to my career training, able to get your pets medical care or advice quickly & competently, if needed, & enjoy time with them while you're away. Regular check-ins & pics provided daily. Excited to meet new fur babies & pet parents:)

Nicole was great! She took incredible care of our golden retriever and our home while we were away. She also gave us great advice on correcting some of our puppies anxiety, and behavior.

She made me feel so comfortable with her years of experience sitting for animals, and working with vets. She sent updates everyday with pictures! It made me extremely at ease being away from my animals.

Nicole is amazing and we will be using her services going forward. She communicated frequently and thoroughly with photos! The house was left in perfect condition and all my animals were happy. I couldnt have asked for a smoother process when going on vacation. 5 stars dont do her justice!

Nicole has stayed with my dog several times now. I also have her booked for a future stay. I can relax and enjoy when I'm away knowing Nicole is taking care of my boy.

Nikki was so attentive to our pets needs and flexible with our schedule. She kept us updated with messages and pictures while we were away so we could have peace of mind that they were in great hands. Thanks again!

Schedule

I work full time, so I typically pet sit adult dogs & cats that are used to longer hours between potty breaks & able to watch puppies over the weekend.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Nicole can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I prefer to know the pets favorite toys, food, treats, behavior with other animals & people, medications, sleeping habits, anxieties/triggers, & any tendencies for destructive behaviors/foreign material ingestion.
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.
