I work from home on Mon Tues & Wed, (Thurs & Fri - half days at office) them I am general free on the weekends. When I leave my home, I would crate my own dog or any dog was caring for. I would typically be gone for no more than 1-2 hours. All dogs would be taken for a walk two times per day, once in the morning & once later in the day. Whatever the dogs feeding schedule is what I would follow. The dogs would be exposed to lots of hugs, music, conversation, & hearing their name throughout the day.

Information Nicole S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to meet with the owner and dog prior to caring for the dog to ensure that you are comfortable with me, so I am aware of the dogs needs, and so that I have a chance to meet the dog so I know that they are also comfortable.

A typical day

Physical activity and communication are important so the dog is stimulated. I like to play games with the dog, like fetch, hide and seek, tug of war, and lots of hugs.

Pet care experience

I have experience with all breeds and temperaments through my previous employment where I was able to work with dogs and all types of animals directly for 10 years. I also enjoy spending time with them. I like going for walks & I have a large yard, a treadmill, and a bike where the dogs can receive regular exercise.

Our pup Oscar was very happy staying with Nicole. He enjoyed playing with the other boarding dogs as well as Nicole’s dog. Nicole made time to meet with us ahead of time to make get to know Oscar. This worked really well as when we dropped off Oscar he was already familiar with the surroundings and Nicole. Communication was excellent.

Nicole is kind, welcoming, knowledgeable and communicative. I really appreciated the daily updates. Our pup was happy with his stay too. I would rebook with Nicole and also recommend her to others.

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.
