Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your animals like and what would make them feel at home. What toys can they have and not have? Can they have a kong? And can they get treats?

A typical day

We love to take walks at the track nearby. It helps get us tired and our four legged friends tired as well. Head scratches are our specialists with the pups.

Pet care experience

My name is Nicole Smith, a passionate and reliable dog sitter on Rover. With years of experience working with dogs of all breeds and sizes, I provide a safe and loving environment for your furry family members. As a dedicated and responsible pet sitter, I understand the importance of maintaining consistency, following routines, and ensuring that your dog feels comfortable and well-cared for while you're away. Whether it's a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, you can count on me to provide the attention, exercise, and affection your dog needs. During your dog's stay, they'll enjoy long walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Communication is key, and I'll make sure to provide frequent updates so you can stay connected with your beloved pup. I believe in open and transparent communication to ensure your peace of mind. Your dog's safety is my top priority, which is why I maintain a clean and pet-friendly home environment. I also have a fenced in dog run where your dog can safely roam and explore. I know how important it is to find a sitter you trust, and I'm committed to building that trust with both you and your dog. I'm excited and ready to meet and care for your furry friend(s).

Nicole provided daily updates which was so appreciated. It was our 1st time leaving Jack with someone and we are so grateful we chose Nicole and her family.

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.
