Pet care experience

Homeowner with large yard & WFH!

Since the age of 7 I’ve always grown up with dogs - having 3 family dogs by the time I went to college. My last year of college I adopted my first dog Finn and it really opened my eyes to how much love I can give. I have a very nurturing personality and I treat my animals as if they were children. Over the years, I have adopted two more dogs and 4 cats with my fiancée. We both work from home and work Rover together to be able to provide the best experience for your beloved fur babies!

Nikki took such great care of our Gracie! Received regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease, knowing Gracie was in a loving home! Nikki is so accommodating and helpful! She is our go-to dogsitter! ❤️👍

Nicole has been an incredible sitter for our pup! Every time he goes to their house he comes back happy and tired. She’s one of the most flexible, understanding, and patient sitters we have ever had and I am so grateful she came our way!

Nicole and her fiance Nick provided a great boarding experience for Oakley when I went away. This was my first experience using Rover for boarding in someone else’s home and I was nervous with how it was going to go - it could not of gone better. Nicole updated me with pictures throughout the day and how Oakley was doing. Great communication while I was away which made me a lot more comfortable. Other dogs were there as well which made Oakley more at ease being in someone else’s home and we love that there is a fenced in back yard. We will be using Nicole again in the future!

Schedule

Working from home allows myself and my fiancée to take breaks throughout the day to give potty breaks and spend some fun time in the backyard! Our dogs love to sunbathe on our deck and we enjoy sitting out there with them!

Safety, trust & environment

Because I treat my animals like children, I give them free access to the home. I don’t personally crate my animals, but am more than willing to crate if someone were to provide one and it provided comfort/security. Our backyard has a large 8ft fence, and we block off certain rooms for the cats, and the stairs at night time. We are all about safety and comfort!

Pets

A typical day

During the weekends I like to go on hikes with my friends to various places near by and enjoy bringing my dog. Located nearby we have Norristown Farm Park along with Valley Forge.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Nicole can host up to 2 pets per night
The primary information I would require would be if they are hostile towards other dogs and cats. Because we have so many pets we tend to only board dogs that are friendly with both. However, for dogs under 50lbs we can easily section them off from the cats.
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.
