Dog lover

Pet care experience

I've had dogs since 2001. I have also cared for homes, cats and dogs while people have gone out of town, or even just for an evening, which of course included walking the dogs as well. Currently I am a social worker, I would love to spend my free time with your pup. I do work Monday-Friday from 7:30am-5pm, but can always let your pup out on my lunch for a potty break. I will definitely treat your fur baby as if they were my own and of course send updates and pictures to ease any of your worries. If there is anything specific, such as a special diet, or enforcing commands, I will gladly honor any of your requests. I am a dog lover and have experience walking small dogs, as little as 5lbs, and larger dogs up to 70 lbs. My partner and I have children ages 6 & 9, we also have a dog and cat.

Nicole was absolutely wonderful completely respectful of our home and kept us in touch throughout the entire weekend! We will 100% be using her again and would recommend her to anyone to sit for you.

Nicole stayed at our house for 8 days over the holidays and sent us pictures several times. We came home to a peaceful tidy house and she had followed our requests regarding clean bed linens and rugs. She came to the house twice before our vacation and did not charge us for these visits although we paid her for the second visit. We would use her again.

Nicole did a great job in house sitting and dog sitting while we were away for one week. She sent lots of photos of Kobi and kept us informed as necessary. The house was clean, and she even washed and dried the bedding, which was a big help since we have a guest staying for the weekend. I would give her a high recommendation.

Nicole was fabulous with Luigi and I am so happy Luigi and I met her through Rover. Everything went so well and we are looking forward to more dates. We couldn’t possibly be more impressed with Nicole. Thank you again so much!

Information Nicole V. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have a special diet? How does your dog react to other dogs in various environments? Dog park? When walking on leash and a dog crosses our path, is there anything I should know about? What commands, if any, do you want to be enforced? Does your dog have any physical needs that need extra care? Does your dog take any medications? Does your dog potty in the house? How does your dog let you know he/she needs to go potty?

A typical day

We can go on walks around the neighborhood, or any trails nearby. The Lafayette reservoir is always a night walk. We can go to a nearby dog park as well. Heather farms in Walnut Creek has a lovely dog park I can bring your fur baby to socialize and play with other dogs. If your pup needs a bath, I am more than willing to do that.
