Pet care experience
Personalized Care for Cats & Dogs
Hi! I’m new using this platform but I’ve always had dogs in my care and now have a very active Bengal kitten at home, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understanding their different needs. I grew up in a household with dogs of all sizes (from large breeds like Rottweilers to small breeds like Yorkies) which has given me experience handling a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I’m used to high energy pets, daily play and exercise, maintaining clean spaces, and adjusting care based on each pet’s personality. I focus on patience, routine, and making sure every pet feels safe, engaged, and well cared for while their owner is away.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Nicole has looked after my cat twice now and she has exceeded my expectations both times. He loves her! She sent me great pictures of the fun they had together and made my time away from him much easier with the peace of mind he was being loved on. Thank you Nicole! -Frankie and Enzo
Best in the business! So caring and kind to our little dude.
Truly above and beyond! My cat absolutely loves her
Nicole was communicative and kind. We are so grateful for her!
When booking with Nicole it was my first experience using Rover. With that being said, I was a bit nervous leaving my cat. Nicole made it very easy to book with her. We did an initial meet-and-greet and I knew that I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my cat. While I was away, Nicole exceeded my expectations. She was extremely communicative, on time, flexible, and most importantly, she is trustworthy. I received multiple messages and photos during and after her visits, and she was always there if I needed anything. My cat LOVES Nicole. I had such a wonderful experience with this booking/sitting and I couldn’t be more thankful. Thank you so much Nicole!
Nicole was such a great sitter! I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry friends.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I’m currently a full-time graduate student with flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to plan visits in advance and accommodate drop-in care when needed. I’m generally available before 10:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, and I can plan ahead to ensure consistent, reliable care.

Safety, trust & environment
I am amenable to anything your doggie/cat may need to feel good and safe. Just give me specifications or contact me with any doubts about walking/sitting services.
Pets
A typical day
A typical visit is tailored to each pet’s needs and energy level. For cats, this can include interactive play, enrichment games, and time to run, jump, or explore, followed by calm companionship if they enjoy it. For dogs, I focus on walks, playtime, and exercise appropriate to their routine and age. I always make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and that litter boxes or living areas are kept clean. I also spend time observing behavior and giving attention so pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for while their owners are away.
