Experiences with all pets

Pet care experience

I grew up in a small village in Germany, and back then I was dealing with animals every day (farm animals, horses and other farm animals) and privately I always had dogs, cats, birds and rodents at home. Animals have always been a part of my life and always will be. That's why at the age of 15, after leaving school, I trained as a saleswoman in a pet shop. My training included handling and caring for animals of all kinds. This also applies to knowledge about feed and accessories. In the coming years I also expanded my knowledge (private) in keeping reptiles. Dealing with young animals and their upbringing is no problem for me, thanks to my years of private experience.

Nicole was great with Pekoe and they seemed to have a good time together. She sent lots of pictures and videos so I knew exactly what our pup had been up to.

Nicole continues to be a superstar . My dog is insanely scared of thunder and can smell bad weather before the sky does! Nicole arrives for the dog walks earlier when she can, knowing the weather is getting bad in the afternoon. She has created ways to calm my dog down with cooling vests, treats and extra attention. She’s trustworthy and always there when she says she’ll be. I highly recommend utilizing Nicole for your dog walking needs.

Nicole was great. She was always in contact and treated Cloe like her own. She sent me mutilple pictures and a video each day. It let me see that Cloe was in good hands. If I ever need someone in the future, I will be sure to use Nicole again.

Nicole is the reason I booked with Rover. She is thorough, intuitive, caring, responsible, and leaves pet owner with unmatched peace of mind. I’d never use anyone else.

First and foremost, I focus on the wishes of the customer. every pet owner has their own ideas and wishes about how their beloved pet should be cared for. In addition, I will treat every animal like my own with lots of love and good care.

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

i will always have a personal conversation with the owner.. he knows best what the animal wants or needs... and he can explain to me exactly what is best for his animal... but i will also ask if it is ok if i have suggestions .

A typical day

i decide.. if i will look after the animal in the apartment.. then i play with the animal and use its toys.. i also train orders and commands.. if the apartment has a fenced garden i will let the dogs play outside depending on the weather.. when walking outside pay attention to the safety of the animal (cars, people or other animals) I also play outside with the animal. on a leash .. if the owner allows me and we are in a dog park then also without a leash .. but also outside I will use commands and orders .. and teach if desired ..
