Safety, trust & environment

I currently provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through drop-in visits and overnight stays. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, where they can maintain their normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I also follow any specific instructions, including administering medications if needed, so your pet receives the personalized care they're used to.

🐾 Loving Care Like They're My Own

Pet care experience

For the past four years, I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, and fish, including pets that require medication, overnight stays, or a little extra love and attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and helping families feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they're away. As the proud pet parent of a Black Lab and a new kitten, I understand that our pets are family. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, care, and attention every step of the way.

We had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She was caring, attentive, and reliable with our dog. Nicole genuinely loved our Georgia and treated her like her own. We especially loved that she kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend Nicole and will definitely book with her in the future!

Nicole is wonderful and Sammy loves her. She is very responsible and trustworthy. I love my Sammy but when I go out of town I hate to leave him. Nicole makes up for me not being at home. Everything is exactlyhow I left it and Sammy is great when I get home. If there is any question, she gets in touch with me immediately. She also sends me pictures of my pup. I am so very satisfied with Nicole and know Sammy will be cared for like he is her own pet.

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.
