Information Nora S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has special needs or behavioral issues. That way I can keep an eye on that and therefore adjust accordingly.

A typical day

Definitely walking, walking, walking. Playing fetch, if the dog is used to that. Going to the nearby park if the owner approves. Beach walks and hikes whenever possible.

Loving Dog Care & Cat Whisperer

Pet care experience

With over 20 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I bring professional, reliable, and compassionate care to your pets. From administering medications and subcutaneous fluids to handling strong dogs on walks, I make sure your companions are safe, comfortable, and loved. At home, I care for two special-needs rescue cats, Angel and Squirrel, both three-legged “tripawds,” who keep me grounded in love every day. Animals have been my companions and teachers since childhood, and I love bringing that attentiveness into every sit. When I care for your pets, you can expect daily updates, consistent communication, and the peace of mind that they’re in loving, capable hands.

Nora took such great care of our girl and our home! I appreciated the updates on all the fun adventures she and Kelp were having while we were away! She went above and beyond and kept our house sparkling clean (even doing some of our laundry and a little organization!). It's always hard to leave our dog but good care makes it so much easier. Thank you Nora! :)

Nora is your dog's best friend! She is awesome. Sent lots of photos and even left me a beautiful painting. I give her my highest recommendation.

Nora did a wonderful job keeping Siena happy at the Polo Grounds. Molly enjoyed purring for Nora. And I enjoyed knowing that they were both happy and safe.

Nora was amazing - she took great care of our dogs while we were away and kept us up to date with many videos and pictures. We will definitely be asking her to come back to take care of them again and highly recommend her!

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.
