Animal Lover & Attentive Caretaker

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs and cats of my own since I was a young child, and began caring for other pets while nannying. I have a degree in wildlife biology, which speaks to my love of all animals and dedication to their health and safety. I have spent a substantial amount of time volunteering at the Humane Society with dogs and cats, and know how to manage different temperaments and trauma responses. I have my own 4-year-old tuxedo cat that I adopted as a kitten in Panama and took with me to the United States.

Nicole was commutative on time and very quick to respond. Handled my needy dog like a champ and left the house cleaner then i did.

Nicole did a great job checking in on my two kitties while I was away! She sent lots of updates and photos which was appreciated. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible communicative and friendly pet sitter!

This is our first time using Rover and were a little nervous about having someone house sit. We were so lucky to have met Nicole. She came for a meet and greet and our fears were gone. She was professional, very nice, and accommodated all our needs. She did an exceptional of caring for our animal family of a bird, a cat and 2 dogs. We highly recommend her and would happily use her services again.

Safety, trust & environment

I will spend extensive time with your animals, contribute to their training if needed, and make sure they are secure in their kennel (if applicable) or on their leash/harness for walks. I take safety and trust seriously and take steps to ensure the security of your pets.

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

It's important for me to know their temperament and how comfortable they are around new people. This helps me adjust my behavior with your dog and get to know them in the best way possible for their comfort. It's also important to know if they have medication or other special needs that I should attend to.

A typical day

I love taking dogs for walks around lakes or to nearby parks. Running around with your pup in the backyard, playing tug of war or chase with toys, and cuddling up once they tire out are some of my favorite activities!
