Availability

I work nights, 3-4 12hr shifts per week. House sitting would be difficult on work days but I'd still be available for walks and/or drop ins on days between shifts. On off days my schedule is usually pretty open aside from some housework or occasional errand.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard for my girls to run and play in. My cat is indoor only so I am always watchful entering and exiting the house so no furbabies on the loose on my watch. For walks even well trained dogs I will walk with a leash, for safety reasons. If you have a fenced yard I'll likely be outside with them when they are out, to play and keep an eye on things.

Information Nikki B. would like to know about your pet

Vet and emergency contact, just in case. Any key training or commands. Feeding/walking schedule so I can stick as close to their regular routine as possible. How they are with other people and dogs, so I know on walks if we need to steer clear of others. Any allergies or recent injuries I need to be cautious of. Favorite toys and things to do.

A typical day

This partially depends on what the animal's routine is. There are a few parks I like, this will depend on how the dog is on a leash/how long their normal walks are/how they are around other people and dogs/etc. While walks are always an option, for clients with fences or high anxiety pups we can stay and play in their own yard with their favorite toys. Fetch or tug of war if they know how to, and I'll always ask about favorite toys.

I'll love your furbaby like my own!

Pet care experience

I've been around animals most of my life, and I love all types, shapes, and sizes. I am a nurse and deal with a lot of people and stress, so animals are like my escape. Anywhere I go I'm looking for new furry friends. I have three babies of my own, two dogs and a cat, all rescues. I've helped look after furry family members for my friends and family, so why not branch out and help more in the community and spread the love, boops, and smooches.

Nikki was responsive and reliable. My animals all love her! She was very adaptable when I had to change times around. I will definitely book her again!

Nikki was super communicative and put my mind at ease when we were out of town and needed our pup cared for. He was super happy and well loved while we were gone! She was spot on listening to any of my instructions and I so appreciate that! Will definitely be booking again in the future.

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.
