I have a tremendous love for animals and for caring for them as I have made it my career. I have lots of love to give as well as knowledge in vet care and good communication while you are away, which can be over texts or calls or any way convenient. I am comfortable house sitting your home and caring for plants and other house chores. I unfortunately cannot accommodate your pets in my own home as I am a renter.

Information Nikki M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any medical concerns, specific bathroom schedules or walk schedules, or other concerns that you may want to go over.

A typical day

I love to play with your pets if that’s what they like but also don’t mind just relaxing and keeping them company if that’s more their speed. I like to run and have had plenty of dogs that love to join me running to get out some energy as well

Pet care experience

I am a 26 year old vet tech at Faithful Friends Animal Society and have been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was very young. I can care for pets with medical issues and medications as well as other medical treatments. I love all dogs and can deal with more timid dogs if necessary. I can care for dogs, cats, and any other type of pet. I am limited in availability to stay in your home but often can do frequent drop by’s to care for your pet. I would love to get to know your pets! Contact me by text or call any time!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my cat received! Nikki went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby was comfortable, happy, and well cared for while I was away. They provided daily updates, complete with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was patient with my shy girl and my crazy kitten!

Nikki is amazing with my dogs. This last time my dog had an upset stomach so she made sure to do regular check ins to see if he was ok

Nikki was amazing with my dog and cat, with her communication being top notch. I've never used Rover before, so I was nervous, but it was a seemless experience from beginning to end. While my dog is old (10), he is a big boy at 140ish lbs. and not everyone is comfortable around a large breed dog. Nikki's confidence in working with a larger dog was apparent during her meet and grèet with Bear. I would highly recommend Nikki to anyone looking for a caring, responsive animal caretaker.

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.
