Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH Yogi Sits All Day + Overnight
Professional housesitter, LGBT+ND Friendly. My homebody routine means tons of time with your pet. I'm very tidy, and a good fit for clean nonsmoking homes. Over 200+ nights per year petsitting! Your place is my home, not just short visits. I love multiple pet households of 2, 3, 4 or more. I normally schedule only one family at a time, to give your pets focused attention. I am patient when it comes to your pets' anxiety or special needs. I love written instructions, and take medication seriously. Since I WFH, I can plan my day around tons of 1:1 time with your pets. I also offer daytime care in your home via Housesitting even if you don't need overnight, or you can book Drop Ins. I usually send you 2+ updates with photos per day. I'm mature, sober, nonsmoking; I don't vape or use drugs, not even caffeine. I have decades of experience caring for houses and pets. Note: All of December will be at Rover Holiday rates. After our initial visit, it is standard to do cold swaps: I arrive after you leave, and depart before you return. This means smoother transitions for pets and humans. One of the most common questions I get from new inquiries: Yes you can book multiple Drop Ins or Walks before your sit so we can all get to know each other better. This works really well. I keep one slot open on a weekday morning for Rover Meet and Greet. If that time does not work, you can absolutely request a day and time for a Drop In that fits with your schedule. Nonsmoking and nonvaping, clean homes only. A comfortable guest bed (or your bed) with fresh clean sheets is very important to me. Start times before 8am, end times after 8pm, drives over 15 minutes are each $30 additional, not included with your Rover estimate.

Ratings and reviews
1,000 out of 10 stars!!!! Our English Bulldog can be quite a handful (fun but lots of bug energy) and Nicole handled him with so much love and care. He was genuinely sad for days after she left. She left our house super clean and I can’t give her enough praise on communication and how at ease I was with her in our home and taking care of our little buddy.

Can’t say enough great things about Nicole! She takes such good care of my senior pup. It’s never easy leaving a 16 year old dog, but Nicole puts me at ease with her reliability and frequent communication.

Thank you, Nicole, for another great trip!! Came home to 6 happy and healthy fur babies. And Nicole graciously handled multiple large packages for me that arrived unexpectedly. Always appreciate her strong communication, helpfulness, and positive attitude.





Nicole came over to meet my dog ahead of a long weekend stay at my house. Dipper settled down pretty fast (it usually takes him a while) and I feel confident that Nicole will be a great fit for him.

Nicole is an incredible dog sitter and took excellent care of our 2 dogs and our home while we were away. She gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands, and she left the house in perfect condition when she left. Our dogs were so happy and well cared for in her hands! Thank you so much Nicole!! You are the best!


Nicole did a great job with our two pitties, Kasia (11) and Miko (7). Our dogs were well cared for and we received updates throughout her time with them. She is a great communicator and she also made sure our house was left tidy. We would definitely like to have Nicole back again!

Schedule
Your home is my home base. I "move in" and bring my groceries/book/yoga mat/work things. Playtime, downtime, and sleepytime are spent with your pet, for tons of attention.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsNicole can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Lets discuss any pet anxiety, reactivity, chewing items, escape artists, or special needs. Does anyone smoke or vape? Please put away air fresheners and scented candles. Will your home be clean when I arrive (bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, fridge)? Is there a comfortable bed with clean sheets and pillow cases? Any reason I wouldn't be able to sleep through the night (loud noise, middle of the night pet needs, etc)? Please notify me of all indoor and outdoor cameras when you first contact me. Let me know where to park.
