Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always use a secure leash/harness setup and double-check doors, gates, and collars before going outside. I keep walks calm and controlled, and I never leave pets unattended. I’m respectful in your home and follow all instructions exactly—feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and any house rules. I’ll send photo updates every visit and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable.

Reliable Sitter, Quick Replies

Pet care experience

I’m a friendly and responsible pet lover with 5 years of hands-on experience. I’ve cared for three dogs and two cats—two small dogs and one German Shepherd—so I’m comfortable with both small and large breeds. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet like family. I’m patient, attentive, and I always follow your routine closely. I’ll send regular photo updates and quick messages so you can feel relaxed and confident while you’re away.

This was my first time using Rover with my dog, Saint, and I was honestly nervous because I wasn't sure if I could trust anyone with him. Nick completely put my mind at ease. He was very quick to respond, sent plenty of pictures, and kept me updated throughout the visit. He followed all of my directions without any issues, gave Saint his Simparica Trio, and refreshed his food and water before leaving. He was professional, polite, and genuinely seemed to care about Saint's well-being. Nick made my first Rover experience a great one, and I would absolutely book with him again. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter! 🐾

Nick (Xinhao) came through on a last minute holiday request and he took wonderful care of GG for multiple days while I was out of town. He send regular detailed updates with photos without me having to ask. He also graciously accommodated an unavoidable delay on my part during drop off and was more understanding than I could have hoped! Will certainly ask him again if he is available.

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.
