Pet care experience

Foster, rescuer, dog lover!

I grew up with a dog, rescued a 12-year old senior with lots of medical needs, foster as often as I can (the weeks-old litters are especially fun!), and have had both small and large dogs. I have experience taking care of young puppies to sweet seniors. My husband and I have 3 seniors (12+) who are all rescues. If you are considering me for a service at our home, please know that your pet will need to get along with them. I look forward to a meet and greet so that our pets can get acquainted. For longer stays, I have a questionnaire that covers lots of details, so I'll be sure to share that with you to cover a lot of questions. Thanks for considering me and I hope to meet you soon! ======= First time considering Rover? Use my discount code for $20 off: NORAK01278

Nora watched our puppy for us and she is great: friendly, professional, knowledgeable about caring for puppies, our puppy was clearly in good hands.

Nora was an incredible sitter! We have an anxious, high-maintenance (but very sweet and funny) pup and Nora was wonderful at listening to all of our tips and concerns and working with us so that the trip would be smooth. Nora sent tons of pictures and videos during our trip and it was clear that our dog loved Nora and was very safe and happy. THANK YOU!

Nora is amazing! She was so kind and understanding of our dog’s needs. Pickup and drop was easy and she kept us in the loop at all times. We would definitely use Nora’s services again!

Nothing less than amazing! We meet Nora beforehand and Carlo loved her right away. She made my husband and I feel really comfortable. Nora showed us where Carlo would be staying, what a typical day would be etc.. She was comfortable with taking care of my delicate Bulldog. He is a very shy dog and he did extremely well with Nora. I love that Nora was very attentive to how I cared for my dog. She wanted to make sure that Carlo wouldn't have a change in routine and that he would be as comfortable as possible. Carlo was allowed on furniture which was a plus for me. She took him out on plenty of potty breaks and gave him plenty of love and attention during his stay. Carlo was with Nora for 2 days. She accommodated my schedule and kept in touch with me often. Being that it was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog for the first time overnight in 3 years I can honestly say that Nora gave me piece of mind. I was able to enjoy my vacation in its entirety. We plan on contacting Nora again and boarding Carlo with her. Thank you Nora

Nora, you da best! We recently adopted Lotus from the SF SPCA and were really anxious when it came to finding a sitter for her. Lotus has a bit of anxiety and leash reactivity so it was very important that her sitter was someone we could trust to make her feel safe and at home. Nora did just that. We loved getting pics of her during our time away and when we returned Lotus was calm as ever. Thanks so much for taking care of our pup!

Nora is AMAZING. Our 1 year old lab, Tucker had THE best time with her. She took unbelievable care of him - so much exercise and play... seriously amazing. This was the first time in which I didn’t feel nervous leaving him. I was so comfortable and honestly my only worry was that he’d be so crazy for her she wouldn’t want to watch him again ha!
