Pet care experience

Dog lover who wants to help!

I have helped care for animals since I was four-years-old. I have trained many dogs a variety of skills and tricks. I love getting outdoors with my two dogs and watching them play. I currently have a Golden Retriever and a German Shepherd so I am very used to high energy/ high drive animals. I have watched pets ranging from less than five pounds up to 165 pounds. I love all dogs and truly enjoy helping them! I do offer in your home sitting. I also offer drop-by services and can walk your pet if that is what you would like. I enjoy hearing from you and getting to know your furry friend! Thank you for considering me!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my clients home, I like to try to keep the pets current routine as that seems to make them most comfortable. I do like to play, give pets, and take them for walks if that is what the client would like for their pet.

Nicole was awesome! She took such good care of Bailey when we were away on vacation. Nicole has great communication and we looked forward to her updates and photos. We are very grateful to her and would 100% recommend her to anyone to watch their pups! We will definitely use Nicole as a sitter again!

Nicole is so great with Arlo! She is great at sending videos and treating Arlo like he is one of her own.

Nicole was fantastic with our dog Evie! She took great care of her and made her feel comfortable even during the storms! We loved getting photos and videos of our pup! We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be reaching out for future needs! 😊

I am currently a stay at home mom so aside from my child’s doctor appointments, I’d be able to watch your fur baby majority of the day and all night.

Some information that is great to know ahead of time is if medication is needed and if you have any special needs dogs and what care they may need.
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.
